Kuoe SOMBRERO 90-011, Silver, Linen Textured Dial, 20 BAR Water Resistant
Taking its name from the Sombrero Galaxy, which is said to be the most beautiful place in space, the SOMBRERO 90-011 is KUOE's first diver style design to date.
This watch is water resistant up to 20 BAR, has scratch and damage resistant sapphire crystal, and even comes with a magnetic resistant case, making it KUOE's most definitive tool watch to date.
This watch has a compressor style case design with a 20 BAR water resistance rating. Every watch is pressure tested after assembly to ensure this water resistance. The crown to adjust the inner bezel also screws down, so that the bezel will not be adjusted by mistake. The caseback is an embossed screwdown case back.
The dial of the watch has a linen finish that gives it a unique texture. The hands and indices are brushed stainless steel that use Old Radium colored Swiss Super-Luminova for bright and long lasting lumination. The bezel markings also have lume applied.
For the movement of this watch, KUOE has once again chosen to adopt the CITIZEN MIYOTA-made Cal.9039, a Japanese-manufactured high-beat movement. This high-beat movement oscillates 28,800 times per hour (8 times a second), reducing the distance of the swing of the second hand and increasing the precision of the watch.
The Cal. 9039 is a rather thin movement, which means that while the watch is 38mm in size, it is only 11mm thick without counting the Crystal. The crystal itself is a boxed-shaped sapphire crystal and only increases the thickness to 12.45mm in total at its highest point.

To keep your watch performing at its best, we recommend avoiding strong impacts, extreme temperatures, and prolonged exposure to moisture unless your watch is designed for water activities. After exposure to salt water, rinse the watch gently with fresh water and dry with a soft cloth.
For mechanical watches, regular wear helps keep the movement running smoothly. If the watch is not worn often, manual winding may be needed depending on the model. Quartz watches may require battery replacement over time.
Leather straps should be kept away from excessive water and humidity to preserve their appearance and longevity.
Because care recommendations can vary by brand and model, please refer to the manufacturer manual included with your watch for detailed operating instructions, water resistance guidelines, and service intervals.
