Isotope Hydrium Wasabi
Introducing: Isotope Hydrium Wasabi
Forget salmon. This one’s all wasabi: bold, bright, and with a little sting.
The Hydrium Wasabi is a playful, sushi-inspired twist on the modern dive watch. Limited to just 20 pieces worldwide, this edition is a vibrant nod to everyone’s favourite green condiment and to the joy of not taking watches too seriously.
The dial? A shock of wasabi green, fully lumed, equal parts punchy and charming. But it’s the details that turn this watch into a full-on omakase experience:
🥢 Chopsticks for hands serve up the time with a wink.
🍣 At 3, 6, and 9, beautifully illustrated Shoyu-tai, Nigiri, and Sushi replace traditional markers. Entirely unexpected.
🌶️ And at the centre, a swirling dab of wasabi serves as the second hand, adding movement and spice with every tick.
It’s whimsical, yes. But built like a serious diver.
The 40mm micro-blasted 316L stainless steel case is classic Hydrium: rugged, purposeful, and ready for anything. With 1000ft / 300m of water resistance, a unidirectional bezel, and the precise La Joux-Perret movement with 68 hours of power reserve, this sushi party doesn’t fold under pressure.
The crisp white FKM rubber strap ties everything together like fresh rice in a perfect roll. Clean, balanced, and surprisingly versatile.
The Wasabi is a reminder that watches can (and should) be fun. And in a world of safe dials and serious faces, it’s the fresh kick we all needed.
Limited to just 20 pieces, the Wasabi is as rare as uni at your favourite izakaya. But a lot more wearable.
Please note: Only 7 watches have been assembled and are available as part of the first batch. The remaining 13 watches from the second batch will be available at the end of August.
