“A fitting DOXA ambassador, Clive Cussler was a renowned maritime explorer, accomplished author and founder of the National Underwater and Marine Agency (NUMA). Cussler passed away in 2020, leaving behind an incredible legacy in both and ocean exploration.

Known most of all for his adventure novels starring the infamous Dirk Pitt  (who, incidentally, wore a Doxa), his hit novels include titles like Raise the Titanic, Pacific Vortex and Black Wind. You can see a bit of a theme with these titles – Cussler loved the ocean – and wanted to do more than just write about it.

Founded in 1979, Numa is the National Underwater and Marine Agency (NUMA). A volunteer foundation dedicated to preserving maritime heritage through the discovery, archaeological survey and conservation of shipwrecks and artefacts. Amazingly, NUMA started as a fictional foundation in Cussler’s series The Numa Files. Imagine thinking: “You know what, this makes for a good story, why don’t we do it in real life!?” NUMA has been responsible for locating and salvaging many important American Civil War vessels and artefacts, just like in the books. ”

Just like its predecessor, this special edition features the names of shipwrecks and other historical artifacts discovered or explored by NUMA engraved on the caseback, creating a tangible link to maritime history and adventure.
  
Capped by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment, all diving-related displays feature a Super-LumiNova® luminescent coating to ensure excellent legibility during dives where visibility is reduced. The watch face is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, and all diving-related displays are coated with Super-LumiNova® for optimal readability during dives in low visibility conditions.
 
Equipped with a Swiss automatic movement with exclusive DOXA decorations operating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations/hour (4.0 Hz), this watch offers a comfortable power reserve of approximately 38 hours. A date window at 3 o’clock and a screw-down crown round off the package, which is water-resistant to 300 meters (~984 feet), allowing safe exploration of the depths.
 
Each piece is discreetly and individually engraved with its exclusive serial number as one of 93 watches (43/93) on the inside of the lugs. Worn on land or at sea, this 42.50 mm-diameter watch, water-resistant to 30 ATM (equivalent to 300 meters or 984 feet), embodies the spirit of intrepid exploration and the timeless allure of adventure. A portion of the sales from this special edition will be donated to NUMA.
