Oceaneva 6000m Deep Marine Explorer VI Titanium GMT True Dive Full Lume Giveaway

Oceaneva Deep Marine Explorer VI 6000m GMT True Dive

As we move into spring, it’s time for the next OT Club membership giveaway – our quarterly watch giveaway that members are automatically entered into. For winter the giveaway prize was the Mezei Arctic and for the spring it’s the Oceaneva 6000m Deep Marine Explorer VI Titanium GMT True Dive Full Lume. Sign up to become a member to take part and receive a host of additional benefits including 10 print issues of the magazine, exclusive discounts and invitations to events and Everything You Need to Know About Hands On Horology 2026.

The Oceaneva 6000m Deep Marine Explorer VI Titanium GMT True Dive Full Lume is a dramatic dive watch sporting an incredible 6,000m water resistance rating. It is uncompromisingly large at 44mm x 19.4mm but that size is offset by the grade 5 titanium construction that gives it a great strength to density ratio, which makes it far lighter than you would expect.

Oceaneva Deep Marine Explorer VI 6000m GMT True Dive

For the display, it’s full lume dial with green emission that glows in low light conditions to provide great readability even in the dark depths of the ocean. Even the peripheral GMT 24-hour scale is lumed so you can tell the time in multiple time zones underwater should you need to. The use of solid, triangular hour markers helps keep them legible against the glowing backdrop and the same is true of the arrow hands.

It’s powered by the Miyota 9075 true GMT with 42-hour power reserve. Being a true GMT means you can adjust the local time in intervals of one hour without altering the rest of the display, making it easy to change time zones as you travel.

The spring OT Club membership giveaway closes on July 1st so sign up to become a member before then to take part.

  • Love that lume. Interesting you didn’t show a photo allowing us to gauge the height of the watch 19.4mm sounds huge. As a person who loves a GMT it’s great to see it uses the Miyota 9075 to give true GMT. I have this movement in another watch and it works beautifully.

  • Would be a very a big step up for me the oceaneva is a brand ive alway loved for spec,design and pure style but the price has been out my budget.

  • As an ex submariner and Diver I have never owned a decent dive watch Only ones that i bought in the Far east that stood the Tiger Test. immersed in a pint ot tiger beer whist drinking it

  • Incredibly handy to have a watch that still works at a depth where your body would be crushed into a mess of splintered bone and goo. The lume bright enough cast a dim light on the unspeakable horror of your mangled corpse.

  • What most people call over built I call expert engineering. I own a few Oceaneva watches and they are solid beautiful time pieces for me. I love everything extreme so I guess that’s my draw but it’s really interesting having a watch that was never made before.

  • Looks like a very fine watch. I have a Deep Marine Explorer II GMT and a Deep Marine Explorer III. Both are impressive. I would like to obtain the Deep Marine Explorer but am unable to at this time. I have not owned a titanium watch yet.
