EDOX – Geoscope Limited Edition 2013
21st Century facelift for Edox Geoscope classic
In 1971, leading Swiss watchmaker Edox introduced the Geoscope, the world’s first genuine WorldTimer wristwatch. It was a big (42mm), bold and beautiful creation and immediately became a collectors’ favourite. Now, to mark the 130th anniversary of Edox, the Geoscope returns to enthral a whole new generation of watch lovers.
The original Geoscope’s unique colourful planisphere dial showed the globe as viewed from the South Pole. An inner bezel, displaying 24 divisions, made one complete revolution every 24 hours and the watch also showed GMT time, plus the sun’s position.

The new Geoscope Limited Edition (just 300 available worldwide, individually numbered 001 to 300) is an updated version of the original classic, which is still a highly sought-after collector’s piece. The Geoscope Limited Edition retains the inner rotating bezel with its incredible “earth map”, this time as viewed from the North Pole, plus a date display on a sub-dial at 6 o’clock. Powered by an automatic movement with a module for the GMT functions, the Geoscope Limited Edition is water- resistant to 20 ATM (200m).

Produced in steel with a stunning matching steel-link bracelet, this beautiful wristwatch is presented in a special collector’s box.
The Geoscope Limited Edition is a thoroughly modern re-imagining of a timeless classic, with its orange hour markers and distinctive main hands paying homage to those on the original.
Family-owned independent boutique watchmaker Edox, based in Les Genevez, makes a range of rugged, technically advanced, superbly engineered precision watches that complement everything from the world’s most difficult motorsport event, the Dakar Rally, to the Extreme Sailing Series and the more sedate, but no less intense, sport of curling.
To celebrate its 130th anniversary, Edox is releasing new editions of several of its most influential timepieces; the Geoscope, the amazing 500m water-resistant Hydro Sub andan elegant timepiece for its classic, ultra-slim Les Bémonts range, the Les Bémonts Open Vision Automatic.
