Just bought the new Master Compressor Diver, on reticulated strap. SOOOO sweeeet! Quick techincal quesitons:
1. I note that when the crown is in the locked position the watch can still seemingly be wound. Will this cause a problem?
2. Are all the Ti MC Divers part of a limited series of 1500? I can't tell from my watch and there is nothing about the numbering on in that tells me it is (although one article I read said that they are limited to 1500 in Ti total).
Thanks for any input!
The Diving Chrono is not a LE, just the Diving GMT is a LE of 1500 pieces...
When you put the compressor key to the good place, you 'll see that it's a bit harder to wind the watch..This mean tha your watch is fully protected against water...
Enjoy this gorgeous piece!
Best.

The MC Diving GMT is the only one of the line that comes in a limited edition (of 1,500 pieces)
Here are a few elements on the winding and water-resistance: The compression key is separate from the operation of the crown itself, so in practive it is possible to handle the crown even in the locked position. Still it makes a pression on the gaskets that might damage them. So it's better to rewind the watch in the open position!!
Have fun with your watch
Cheers
Thanks for this precision.
And...Welcome Here..Hope to see you more often!
Best.
