Powering the watch is a Miyota 9075 caliber, a hi-beat 'true' GMT movement that ticks at a formidable 28000 bph. Offering seamless timekeeping, the watch is ideal for travellers and those who wish to track more than one timezone. Adjusting the watch in various locales is a breeze by 'jumping' the hour hand in its first crown position, independent of the GMT and minute hand. This keeps uncompromised timing as it does not interfere with the running movement, while the date also corrects itself either forward or in retrograde as the hour hand is wound.

BOLDR's first GMT dive watch is the latest member of its Odyssey Freediver series, albeit with exciting new updates. At a new 44mm size with 12.5mm thickness (without sapphire glass), it houses a 'true' GMT movement in a 300m water-resistant surgical steel case. The case is satin finished with polished edges on its signature angular lugs. Building on previous versions of BOLDR Odysseys, the updated slimmer profile lends a sleek, elegant touch that blurs the lines between adventure and professionalism.

The high strength to weight ratio of carbon fiber has made it as an attractive energy-saving material over the conventional strength-bearing materials like steel. Realizing the trend, the high-weight steel is being progressively replaced by the low-weight and corrosion-resistant carbon fiber composites in many strength applications. The carbon fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composite (PMC) have thereby become forefront material in aerospace, automobile, sporting goods, and other applications which demand high strength and high modulus. Moreover, the gradual reduction of its cost curtsy to the extensive research in the field of carbon fiber technology in recent years has been opened its market in different construction applications. This review is the discussion of carbon fiber loaded a variety of polymer matrix composites where the structural importance of these composites has been emphasized. The objective of this discussion is to provide information on the whole spectrum of carbon fiber-based polymeric composites. It also includes brief discussion about preparation and properties of carbon fibers along with processing, fabrication, and structural applications of these carbon fiber-based polymer composites.

As with all classic sports timepieces, the combination of dive-ready and travelling credentials makes the Freediver GMT an adventurer's trusted companion. Fitted with a scratch-resistant two-tone ceramic bezel, divers can utilize the 120-click unidirectional wheel for tracking elapsed time underwater while travellers monitor up to three time zones. The bezels come in three classic colour options: black moss green, black chocolate brown, and black crimson red.

Perhaps the most striking feature of the watch is its dial, designed with a gradient effect inspired by varying light activity visible to a submerged diver. A translucent dial centre alludes to being closer to the surface, getting darker towards the dial edges to signify increasing ocean depth. The translucent centre was a key design detail as outlined by the brand: "While sketching the design of the Freediver GMT, we wanted fans to feel its mechanical vibe by subtly displaying the movement without drawing focus away from the hands, indexes, and the new indexed inner ring", remarks Danny Guzzi, Design Lead.

As a result, Boldr's watches are built to take on some tough conditions. Their watches use sapphire crystals, and many have titanium cases - perfect for the modern explorer!

The watch face is also kept in balance by a custom date window that sits level with the eye-line between 4 and 5 o'clock for better readability.
