Surely the Great Barrier Reef is known even by those who never liked the lessons of geography at school. This wonder of nature is the world largest reef system consisting of more than 2900 independent reefs and 900 islands. The Great Barrier Reef is located in the Coral Sea near Australia and occupies the territory of about 344,400 square km.
Unfortunately today the unique system of reefs suffers from a number of serious problems – species extinction and water pollution. But the customers of the renowned watchmaking brand Oris have a chance to help the AMCS (Australian Marine Conservation Society) to protect and preserve the unique flora and fauna of the Great Barrier Reef. The brand has recently presented a limited edition collection of timepieces – Oris Great Barrier Reef Limited Edition – and claimed that all the proceeds will be transferred to the account of the AMCS.
The novelty looks really great. The ultramarine dial makes a beautiful contrast to the luminescent indices and central hours and minutes hands of bright orange. Between 2 and 5 o’clock there is the seconds subdial with two hands one of which is covered with the luminescent treatment. The date aperture is placed at 6 o’clock. The back case of the 47-mm case crafted from the stainless steel is decorated with the attractive logo of the AMCS.
The watch is produced in a limited edition of 1000 pieces – the number symbolizes the impressive level of water resistance of the new watch.
