The OceanGraph MKII – A New Chapter in Deep-Sea Precision, Co-Designed with Freediver Siri Østvold
* The OceanGraph MkII, the latest evolution of one of the most iconic dive watches in history. Originally launched in 1968 as a specialised instrument for recreational and professional divers, the OceanGraph defined a new standard in ocean exploration. The reimagined OceanGraph MKII fuses contemporary engineering, modern functionality and the insight of Norwegian freediver Siri Østvold, whose vision helped refine the design for the demands of competitive free divers.
* The MKII features an innovative multifunction GMT, Tide Tracking, Top Time & Dive bezel. It combines four different timing systems into one rotating bezel and is the first of its kind.
*The Ocean Graph MkII pairs rugged engineering with refined aesthetics. Its distinctive blue dial and orange accents ensure instant readability in low light, while the ultra-light perlon strap provides comfort and durability both above and below the surface.

The Re-Birth of Ollech & Wajs.
The name Ollech & Wajs began in 1956, when Zurich resident Albert Wajs decided to partner with his friend Joseph Ollech and open a luxury watch shop, initially retailing Breitling and Omega before launching their own brand: Ollech & Wajs Zürich.
By the 1960s the Ollech & Wajs range consisted of men's chronographs, diving watches (in particular the Caribbean 1000, which was, as its name suggested, the first 1000m water resistant diving watch), military watches, much appreciated by American soldiers who ordered OWs for entire battalions during the Vietnam war and also pilot’s watches, which the French Air Force commissioned for active use.
Ollech & Wajs, now under new ownership have returned to the company's heyday and strive to manufacturer high quality, Swiss made sports watches with a nod to the classic designs of their 60s predecessors. All OW watches have a 90% Swiss made origin and are designed at their headquarters: Ollech & Wajs Precision A.G. on Bergstrasse in Zurich and then individually assembled and adjusted in Haute-Sorne, in the Swiss Jura.
