The Class-1 Ice Shark by Edox is powered by a Ronda-5040.B quartz chronograph movement. The original Ronda caliber featured a standard tri-compass layout but this one is electric-powered with big date display and only two counters. The 45mm case is stainless steel with black PVD coating, there is a sapphire crystal and the watch has 1,000-meter water resistance. Other features include black ceramic bezel with numbers and markers that stand out in white and orange and a black dial that contrasts against orange outlined sub-counters. This limited edition is set at 1,000 pieces and the number of the edition is engraved on the right flank

Looks like a nice one, O. Somebody posted this as a teaser 2 days ago and it was ok to me. While it has all the things you need for a serious watch like a good size and heft, sapphire glass, huge chrono pushers, PVD coating......Edox should have take the auto route for this one.

I'm loving that bezel, the way it's been milled and those 4 screws at 130, 430, 7430 and 1130.
