The model is based on the Seiko Epson YM86 Japanese quartz movement. The watch features an original polygonal envelope consisting of 2 parts "pressed" one into the other, which is made of stainless steel. It was paired with a black leather strap. The black dial is complemented with a day-of-the-month date, chronograph, tachymeter and GTLS (Gaseous Tritium Light Sources) backlighting on the indexes and hands. The model additionally features an alarm, perpetual calendar and daily time. The watch features K1 mineral glass to protect the dial from damage. The screw-down crown and bezel, as well as the 20 ATM water resistance rating, allow diving without an aqualung. The line is dedicated to Nobel laureate Robert Oppenheimer. He was the head of the Los Alamos laboratory and has been called the "father of the atomic bomb" due to his role in the Manhattan Project, which developed the first nuclear weapon. After World War II, Oppenheimer became chairman of the influential General Advisory Committee of the newly formed United States Atomic Energy Commission. He used this position to lobby for international control of nuclear energy to prevent nuclear proliferation and a nuclear arms race with the Soviet Union.
