Niko Pajkovic — September 8, 2021 — Fashion
Luxury watchmaker IKEPOD has unveiled the 'Seapod Diver,' a new line of UFO-shaped timepieces designed by Habrice Gonet. These atypical luxury watches will be the first live version of the brand's popular pod-like model. They will be released in three colors: blue, black, and black and silver.
Sticking with the brand's iconic rounded shape, the 'Seapod Diver' mixes elements of the 1996 'Seaslug' with the popular 'Duopod' and 'Megapod' models. Completely lug-free, this sleek watch comes in at 46mm and is equipped with clear dive markers, a screw-down crown, and a classic, 12-hour rotating bezel. In addition, the watch is entirely water-resistant up to 200m and it is powered by a 'Miyota 9039' allowing for exceptional automatic movement.
