The Dive Watch Connection

SAS Watch Company Ltd, is extremely pleased to announce our partnership with Mike O'Shea and Clare O'Leary Ireland's leading explorers. Mike and Clare will set off on an expedition to the North Pole on foot the equivalent to two marathons a day in temperatures of -20C to -60C (-4F to -76F) !! They will travel 778Kms over 60 days pulling sledges with all their supplies and equipment. They will also be wearing SAS watches that have been prepared by watch-making legend John McGonigle to withstand the freezing temperatures. Each watch has been completely stripped down, serviced, and re oiled using oils specially developed for freezing conditions.

You can find out more about the LIFEPROOF ICE PROJECT and Mike and Clare on their website The Ice Project and their facebook page https://www.facebook.com/TheIceProject

I will post up photos to this thread as I get them and we will be following their expedition on our website.

We wish Clare and Mike a safe journey and look forward to their speedy return.

Nice Graeme! What a terrific cross-promotion for SAS.

Congrats Graeme...i see a SAS LE in the future...

This sounds awesome. For those that havent heard of them, the McGonigle brothers are the real deal and build truly grail worthy watches.
Graeme, don't go all Mike Kobold on us now and raise your prices 400%.

Very cool. Looking forward to following; can't say that I know much about polar exploration, polar moments or even polar moments of inertia, but I'm happy to watch! Congrats!

I'm waiting for the "James Gandolfini Mummified Scrotum LE" watch strap.

I'd, er, rock that.

That's only because you lack vision (or that you have scruples).

I, personally, could go for a $600 knife that looks like a junior high shop project.

I think this is kickass.

That's cool! I look forward to following this. Given the winter we've had here a polar expedition seems right up our street!

Probably warmer than a walk around the block in any city in the upper Mid-West.

Very cool...

Well done Graeme, I wish Mike & Clare well.. I'll try to follow their progress.
