 the definitive modern diver’s watch from the Geneva manufacture. Enginee
 red for both deep-sea performance and everyday practicality\, it features 
 a robust 42.5 mm titanium and stainless-steel case\, paired with a matchin
 g titanium and stainless-steel bracelet and bezel that offer exceptional l
 ightness\, durability\, and comfort. A well-integrated helium escape valve
  underscores its professional qualities\, while the matte dial and discree
 t date display enhance legibility and daily usability.\n\nYet this edition
  distinguishes itself far beyond its technical merits. Commissioned specia
 lly for the British Army’s elite Parachute Regiment\, one of the most re
 spected airborne units in the world\, it was produced in just 80 pieces to
  commemorate the regiment’s 80th anniversary.\n\nThe caseback is engrave
 d with the emblem of the Parachute Regiment and identifies the present wat
 ch as number 44 in the edition\, a number that alludes to the Battle of Ar
 nhem in 1944. Fought in September 1944 as part of Operation Market Garden\
 , the battle saw British airborne forces\, including elements of the Parac
 hute Regiment\, dropped near Arnhem in the eastern Netherlands in an attem
 pt to capture and hold the road bridge over the Lower Rhine. Although the 
 bridge could not be held and the operation did not achieve its objectives\
 , Arnhem has become one of the most defining episodes in the regiment’s 
 history\, closely associated with both its courage and the heavy losses su
 stained. The dial is further personalised at 9 o’clock with the regimen
 tal insignia\, reinforcing the watch’s close association with this disti
 nguished unit and its history.\n\nUniting contemporary sports watchmaking 
 with significant military heritage\, this Pelagos represents a rare opport
 unity to acquire a highly exclusive piece with genuine provenance. A futur
 e collectible in every sense\, combining technical mastery with a storied 
 legacy.\n\nPlease note that Condition 12 of the Conditions of Business for
  Buyers is not applicable to this lot.
