The Shanghai Watch Commander Dive 39mm is built as a compact, functional dive watch designed for everyday reliability. It combines a robust case with a clean, legible layout, keeping the focus on usability. Inspiration & Cultural Design The Commander series traces its origins to the 1960s, when the Shanghai Watch Factory developed the 114 Series - China’s first self-designed military automatic diving watch. Built for the People’s Liberation Army, it was engineered for durability, with shock resistance, anti-magnetism, and water resistance up to 200 meters. Issued to division-level commanders, it became associated with leadership and reliability in demanding conditions. The modern Commander Diver draws from this foundation, retaining the utilitarian design language while updating performance to meet contemporary standards, including increased water resistance. The result is a watch that balances historical reference with practical functionality. Dial & Case Details The gray dial offers a more understated alternative, using tone rather than contrast to create visual interest. It keeps the watch versatile while maintaining strong readability. Markers and hands are designed for clear visibility, supporting the watch’s tool-oriented purpose. The 39mm case keeps the watch compact while maintaining the presence expected of a dive watch. A unidirectional bezel supports timing functionality, while a sapphire crystal protects the dial. Movement & Mechanics Powered by an automatic mechanical movement, the watch delivers dependable performance for daily and active use. The focus remains on reliability and consistency under regular wear. Strap & Wearability The watch comes with three strap options - a metal bracelet, leather strap, and NATO strap - allowing it to adapt across different uses and settings. This flexibility lets the watch shift easily between a more robust, tool-oriented feel and a lighter, more casual configuration. Despite its functional design, the 39mm case remains comfortable on the wrist, making it suitable for extended wear across both daily and active use. Final Impression This is the most restrained version, suited for those who prefer a more neutral, everyday look within a dive watch format.

The CIGA Design Falcon Silver Skeleton Watch keeps the same fully open construction - but presents it with more restraint. It allows the design to breathe, with light playing a larger role across the case and movement. Inspiration & Design The Falcon is built around the idea of tension held in place. Sharp case geometry, exposed mechanics, and open space work together to create a watch that feels alert rather than static. The design is less about symmetry and more about balance - between structure and void. This is where CIGA Design’s approach becomes clear: the watch is constructed as a system, not layered as separate elements. In Silver, that tension feels more controlled. The absence of heavy contrast shifts the focus toward proportion, finishing, and mechanical detail rather than visual intensity. Dial & Case Details The 316L steel case retains its open-worked construction, with sharp lines and a strong, balanced stance. Micro-sandblasted surfaces are paired with polished accents, creating a subtle interplay of light across the case and bezel. The layered bezel adds depth without overwhelming the design, while the raised crystal enhances the sense of space within the watch. The skeletonised layout allows the movement to act as both dial and visual centrepiece. Movement & Mechanics At its core is the self-developed Caliber CD-02. Running at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a 40-hour power reserve, the movement is designed to be seen as much as it is to perform. It is mounted within a transparent support structure that creates a floating effect - holding the movement in place while maintaining visible space around it. This reinforces the watch’s sense of openness and tension. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability The Falcon is paired with a steel H-link bracelet featuring a hidden clasp for a clean, uninterrupted profile. Despite its presence, the watch remains relatively slim at approximately 11mm including crystal. The result is a piece that wears more comfortably than its visual complexity suggests. Final Impression The Falcon Silver is the more restrained interpretation. Cleaner, more legible, and easier to pair - it offers the same architecture in a more versatile form.

Technical Specifications Case size: 43.5mm Case material: 316L stainless steel, sandblasted/satin Case back: Heat hardened mineral glass Movement type: Automatic Movement no.:  In-house movement CD-02 Power reserve: Approx 40hrs Dial: Skeleton micro-sandblasted/chamfered dial with green SuperLuminova and applied indices Glass: Heat hardened mineral glass Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Bracelet Strap material: Stainless steel Buckle: Push button hidden clasp Warranty: 2 years

The CIGA Design Falcon Carbon Skeleton Watch does not rely on a traditional dial. Instead, it opens the watch completely - front to back - placing the movement at the centre of the design. The Carbon variant intensifies this by framing everything in a darker, more technical palette. Inspiration & Design The Falcon is built around the idea of tension held in place. Sharp case geometry, exposed mechanics, and open space work together to create a watch that feels alert rather than static. The design is less about symmetry and more about balance - between structure and void. This is where CIGA Design’s approach becomes clear: the watch is constructed as a system, not layered as separate elements. Dial & Case Details The 43.5mm case is defined by its open-worked lugs and balanced crown guards, giving it a distinct, skeletal frame. Surfaces are predominantly micro-sandblasted, contrasted with polished accents and chamfered edges that catch light selectively. The darker finish of the Carbon variant reinforces depth across these transitions. The bezel is built in layers, with recessed sections and raised markers forming a structured outer ring. A raised crystal adds vertical depth and draws the eye into the movement. With no traditional dial, the movement itself becomes the visual centrepiece - fully exposed and integrated into the watch’s architecture. Movement & Mechanics At its core is the self-developed Caliber CD-02. Running at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a 40-hour power reserve, the movement is designed to be seen as much as it is to perform. It is mounted within a transparent support structure that creates a floating effect - holding the movement in place while maintaining visible space around it.

Despite its presence, the watch remains relatively slim at approximately 11mm including crystal. The result is a piece that wears more comfortably than its visual complexity suggests. Final Impression The Falcon Carbon is the more assertive execution. Darker, sharper, and more architectural, it emphasises structure and contrast, making the design feel more technical on the wrist.

The Zelos Hammerhead V3 Titanium Granite draws from the classic era of dive watches, reworked with sharper lines and a more contemporary execution. Its cushion-shaped titanium case gives it a strong wrist presence, while the granite-textured dial adds depth through subtle light play. With 300m water resistance, a hardened titanium surface, and a quick-adjust bracelet, it is built for daily wear with proper dive capability. Inspiration & Design The Hammerhead takes its cues from vintage dive watches, particularly the cushion-case silhouettes that defined many tool watches of the past. Zelos updates this format with more angular case lines and a faceted profile, giving the watch a more modern stance. The case and bracelet are designed to flow together visually, creating a cohesive and assertive look on the wrist. Despite its size, the relatively short lug-to-lug length helps it wear more compactly than expected. Dial & Case Details This Granite variant features a stamped and textured brass dial designed to mimic the look of natural granite, without the fragility of stone. The dark grey surface reflects light subtly, revealing fine texture without appearing overly decorative. It remains restrained at a glance, but shows more detail up close. The case is made from Grade 2 titanium and treated with a 1200HV hardened coating to improve scratch resistance over standard titanium. A sapphire bezel insert and domed sapphire crystal with inner anti-reflective coating reinforce its durability as a true tool watch. Movement & Mechanics Inside is the Seiko NH35 automatic movement, a proven and reliable calibre widely used for its durability and ease of service. It fits the Hammerhead’s purpose well, prioritising robustness and practicality over unnecessary complexity. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability The watch is fitted on a titanium bracelet with a hardened surface and a quick-adjust clasp with an external release. This allows for fast, on-the-fly sizing adjustments without removing the watch, improving comfort throughout the day. Despite its bold proportions and 300m rating, the 49mm lug-to-lug span helps it sit securely and balanced on the wrist. Final Impression The Zelos Hammerhead V3 Titanium Granite is a modern dive watch that focuses on material, construction, and proportion rather than excess. It delivers the presence expected of a serious diver, while the granite-textured dial and hardened titanium case give it a more considered and distinctive character. A strong option for those looking for a robust daily watch with subtle detail and proper capability. Explore Other Variants Explore other Zelos watches available at Red Army Watches Singapore.

The GT series takes its cues from classic grand tourers - streamlined, low, and built for sustained wear rather than short bursts. In the Carbon Supernova, that idea is translated into a fully carbon-forward construction. Case and dial share the same material base, giving the watch a more continuous, less segmented appearance. The result is a piece that feels lighter visually and physically, while still retaining structure. Inspiration & Design The design approach centres on flow and integration. The case transitions cleanly into the strap without aggressive lugs, keeping the profile compact despite the 42mm diameter and 46mm lug-to-lug. Automotive references remain subtle: Dial layout prioritises legibility, similar to instrument clusters Power reserve functions as a secondary information layer rather than a focal complication Case curvature keeps the watch close to the wrist This is less about overt styling, more about proportion and continuity. Dial & Case Details The dial is also forged carbon - not a printed or layered surface. Each piece carries a unique marbled pattern Matte texture reduces glare and enhances depth Orange SuperLumiNova is applied selectively for contrast In low light, the BGW9 lume introduces a cooler tone, shifting the watch away from its darker daytime appearance. The forged carbon case reinforces this: Lightweight relative to its size Subtle surface variation across each piece Paired with a box-shaped sapphire crystal that adds slight height and vintage curvature Movement & Mechanics The watch uses the Miyota 9133 automatic movement, a step up from the standard 9-series due to its integrated complication. Power reserve indicator (approx 40–45 hours) 28,800bph beat rate Hacking and hand-winding The power reserve is integrated cleanly into the dial, adding function without overwhelming the layout. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability This variant is fitted on a leather strap with matching stitching, shifting it slightly away from a pure sports positioning. 22mm lug width Softens the overall look of the carbon case Improves comfort for extended wear On wrist: 46mm lug-to-lug keeps it compact despite diameter 12.5mm total thickness (with crystal) remains wearable under most cuffs Lightweight case reduces fatigue over long periods Wear profile: Sits low relative to its diameter Balanced across wrist due to lug-less integration Suitable as a daily piece, not just a statement watch Final Impression The Zelos GT Carbon Supernova 42mm is defined by material consistency and controlled detail. It doesn’t rely on bold colour or high contrast. Instead, it builds interest through: Carbon texture Subtle lume transitions Functional complication This makes it a more restrained GT - one that wears easily day to day, while still offering enough variation to remain engaging over time. Explore Other GT Variants The Zelos GT series is available in a range of materials and colourways, each offering a distinct take on its automotive-inspired design.
