Perfect timing was critical in the"Iceman’s" successful attempt to free swim - that is without an oxygen tank - 200 m under the ice of Lake Weissensee, high in the Austrian alps.

Redl’s 2 mm-thick Neoprene wetsuit insulated him from the numbing cold of 2°C water but his Edox Chronoffshore-1, a watch engineeredto withstand the most extreme of conditions, also played a pivotal role as he swam in the gloom under the ice.

Water-resistant to 500 m, this 45 mm beauty with its black PVD-coated case is a striking example of a modern diver’s watch. The Chronoffshore-1 sports a black ceramic bezel with striking yellow-green markings and a slick, modern face that’s highly legible underwater. The extra-thick 3 mm sapphire crystal gives the Edox Chronoffshore-1 an added layer of "toughness" that ensures no matter how difficult the environment the watch will still function perfectly.

Redl’s ice dive was a dangerous undertaking (rescue crews were close at hand in case anything went wrong) but it was exactly the type of cutting edge adventure the 40-year-old Austrian and the Les Genevez-based Edox have relished since they teamed up in 2010.
