The watch
Built around a garibaldi dial, the Ocean Crawler Core Diver - Garibaldi LE pairs a 44mm case with a Swiss automatic Sellita SW200-1 movement. Expect a limited production run, 600m water resistance and a sapphire crystal. On the ChronoSeasons dial it sits at Hour IV — Dive, part of the Expedition season — and suits water sports and everyday wear.
The Garibaldi dial sets the tone, framed by a sapphire unidirectional rotating bezel and set into a 44mm case in 316L stainless steel. At 44mm across, 15.6mm thick and 50mm lug-to-lug, it wears with real presence on the wrist.
Inside beats a Swiss-made Sellita SW200-1 automatic, running at 28,800 vph with roughly a 40-hour power reserve. It winds itself from the motion of your wrist — no battery, just a mechanical heart that has been individually regulated for accuracy.
Every Ocean Crawler is pressure-tested in water, and this one is rated to 600 metres (60 ATM). That is genuine capability for recreational and technical scuba diving, freediving and spearfishing. A helium escape valve lets it handle saturation diving and decompression chambers. The unidirectional bezel and bright Super-LumiNova keep elapsed-time tracking clear even in dark water.
It is made for divers and enthusiasts who want a serious tool watch with genuine depth rating, Swiss-grade mechanics and a design that still turns heads above the surface.

Good to know
A Swiss-made Sellita SW200-1 automatic running at 28,800 vibrations per hour with about a 40-hour power reserve. It is self-winding, so there is no battery to replace.
It is rated to 600 metres (60 ATM) and pressure-tested, so it is suitable for recreational and technical scuba diving, freediving and spearfishing. Have the gaskets checked periodically to keep that rating.
The case measures 44mm (15.6mm thick, 22mm lug width) — a bold size that suits larger wrists (roughly 17.5 cm / 6.9 in and up). Our watch size guide (/pages/watch-size-guide) explains how to measure your wrist.
It has a garibaldi dial, framed by a sapphire unidirectional rotating bezel, under an anti-reflective sapphire crystal.
It pairs 600 metres (60 ATM) of tested water resistance with a full sapphire bezel and sapphire crystal, a serious tool-watch build and Swiss Super-LumiNova, so it performs underwater and still looks refined on land.
The bezel and key dial markers carry Swiss Super-LumiNova, so elapsed-time tracking and reading the time stay clear in dark or murky water.

From the journal
Owners say
I wear traditional dress watches Monday through Thursday, but the Garibaldi LE has become my go-to for casual Fridays and client golf outings. At 15.6mm it sits proud of a dress cuff, and the extra strap was pretty stiff for the first 3-4 days before breaking in.
Took this down to 90 feet off the Jersey shore last weekend. The orange dial stays readable way deeper than you'd think, the 120-click sapphire bezel is easy to grip with neoprene gloves, and the C3 lume practically glows in the dark water.
I was on the fence about spending $1,200 on a microbrand watch, but the build quality of this Core Diver put my doubts to rest. Between the heavy shark-mesh bracelet, the 4mm sapphire crystal, and the Swiss Sellita movement, it feels like a $3,000 piece.
I fly private single-engine planes out of Hartford and usually wear a pilot GMT, but this Garibaldi orange dial caught my eye for weekend trips. Super legible at a quick glance in bright sun. The clasp doesn't have half-links so the fit is slightly snug in humid August weather.
Hi Zachary, glad the Garibaldi is getting some airtime out of Hartford! Thanks for the feedback on the bracelet sizing during humid weather.
I take my skiff out through the Georgia marshes every weekend and wanted a high-visibility diver. The 600m rating, screw-down crown, and C3 Super-LumiNova on this Garibaldi model are rock solid, and the rubber strap rinses clean after a day in the salt.
Surprised my fiancé with this for our engagement anniversary. As an interior designer, I loved the bold orange and blue contrast, and he is a huge watch guy who immediately started talking about the Swiss movement. It hasn't left his wrist.
Dial legibility against the Garibaldi orange face is instantaneous. The 316L steel case machining, helium relief valve, and screw-down crown threads are all clean. Shark-mesh clasp locks securely and the 4mm sapphire crystal shows minimal glare.
The Sellita SW200-1 in my Garibaldi LE is running within +2 seconds per day after two weeks of wear. At 44mm by 15.6mm with a helium escape valve and 4.0mm sapphire crystal, this is a true deep-water spec piece. The 120-click sapphire bezel action is crisp with zero play. My only minor critique is that the secondary strap was pretty stiff for the first 3-4 days before breaking in on my wrist.
Got this for my brother's retirement party in June. He has always loved orange dive watches and the Garibaldi dial blew him away. He did mention the shark-mesh clasp could use an extra micro-adjustment hole for hot afternoons, but he wears it constantly.
Hi Adam, congrats to your brother on his retirement! We appreciate the note on the clasp micro-adjustment and hope he enjoys the Garibaldi for many years.
Bought the Garibaldi LE for my husband's birthday before our trip to Catalina. He is an architect and super particular about design details, so I was nervous picking a bright orange dial. He loves it and barely touches his other watches now.
