It is water resistant to 300 meters, powered by a Japanese Miyota 2S60 quartz movement with a 10-year battery, and fitted with a Swiss Pro-Glo T25 tritium illumination system that glows continuously for 25 years without requiring a light source to charge it. This listing covers the black with orange dial configuration on a charcoal rubber strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for Low-Light and Underwater Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PT1004 carries a Swiss Self-powered Pro-Glo T25 tritium illumination system that emits light continuously for 25 years. Unlike photoluminescent lume, tritium does not need to be exposed to a light source before it glows, making the watch readable in complete darkness without any preparation. The system glows 100 times brighter than conventional photoluminescent alternatives, which matters when a diver or operator needs to read the time quickly and without hesitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDepth-Rated Case and Crystal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 42mm case is constructed from carbon composite and is water resistant to 300 meters, with all watches tested in both air and water. A 60-click unidirectional ratcheting dive timing bezel allows elapsed-time tracking underwater, and a sapphire crystal with antireflective coating reduces glare for clear dial reading at the surface or in bright conditions. The screw-in crown includes multiple O-rings, and the caseback is a screw-in 316L stainless steel embossed signature design, both construction choices that support the depth rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStrap and Movement Built for Extended Wear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe genuine rubber strap uses a steel tube molded directly into the strap so that spring pins pass through metal rather than rubber, adding strength at the attachment points. The steel signature buckle completes the connection. The Miyota 2S60 quartz movement provides three-hand timekeeping and a date display with a 10-year battery life, reducing the maintenance burden for users who wear the watch in demanding environments where battery changes are inconvenient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarbon Composite Case:\u003c\/strong\u003e 42mm diameter, 13.95mm thick, 22mm lug width, 73.2g total weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e60-Click Unidirectional Dive Bezel:\u003c\/strong\u003e ratcheting design for elapsed-time tracking underwater\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePro-Glo T25 Tritium Illumination:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swiss self-powered, continuous 25-year glow, no charging required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e300-Meter Water Resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e screw-in crown with multiple O-rings; all units tested in air and water\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMiyota 2S60 Quartz Movement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese-made, 3-hand with date, 10-year battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReinforced Rubber Strap:\u003c\/strong\u003e steel tube molded into strap at spring-pin points; steel signature buckle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCase Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCarbon Composite\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCase Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e42mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCase Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e13.95mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLug Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e22mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e73.2 grams\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCrystal\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSapphire with antireflective coating\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCaseback\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e316L stainless steel screw-in embossed signature\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCrown\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e316L stainless steel screw-in with multiple O-rings\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBezel\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e60-click unidirectional ratcheting dive timing bezel\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWater Resistance\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e300 meters (tested in air and water)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMovement\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eJapanese Miyota 2S60 quartz, 3-hand with date\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBattery Life\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e10 years (stated)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eIllumination\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSwiss Pro-Glo T25 tritium, self-powered, 25-year continuous glow\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eStrap\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eGenuine rubber, charcoal, steel tube spring-pin reinforcement, steel signature buckle\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDial\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlack with orange\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePTK 1004\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe PT1004 suits divers, military personnel, and tactical users who need a depth-rated watch with always-on low-light readability and a long-life battery. The 300-meter water resistance and unidirectional dive bezel make it appropriate for recreational and professional diving, and the tritium illumination suits operators who cannot rely on charging a lume dial before a mission.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThe PT1004 is not a mechanical or automatic watch; it uses a quartz movement and will require a battery replacement after the stated 10-year service life. No ISO 6425 dive watch certification is stated for this watch. Buyers seeking a dress watch, a mechanical movement, or a smaller case profile will find this watch's tactical dive specification a poor match for those needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eHow does the tritium illumination on the PT1004 work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Protek PT1004 uses a Swiss Pro-Glo T25 tritium illumination system that is self-powered by tritium gas sealed in small tubes on the dial and hands. Because tritium emits light through radioactive decay rather than stored light energy, the PT1004 glows continuously for 25 years without needing exposure to sunlight or artificial light before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat is the water resistance rating, and how was it tested?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Protek PT1004 is water resistant to 300 meters. Each watch is tested in both air and water. The screw-in crown with multiple O-rings and the screw-in caseback support this depth rating. Users should ensure the crown is fully screwed down before any water exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat movement does the PT1004 use, and how long does the battery last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe PT1004 runs on a Japanese Miyota 2S60 quartz movement with three-hand timekeeping and a date display. The movement carries a stated 10-year battery life. When the battery requires replacement, the watch should be returned to a qualified watchmaker to preserve the water-resistant seals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat does the reinforced rubber strap construction mean in practice?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eOn the Protek PT1004, a steel tube is molded directly into the rubber strap at the points where the spring pins attach the strap to the case. This means the spring pins pass through metal rather than rubber, reducing the risk of the strap tearing away from the watch under load. A steel signature buckle secures the strap on the wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eIs the PT1004 available in other dial or strap configurations?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThis listing covers the Protek PT1004 in the black with orange dial on a charcoal rubber strap.
