In collaboration with the respected The Real Time Show (TRTS) watch podcast, Sherpa introduces a striking evolution of the OPS model. The Sherpa x TRTS OPS edition features a satin-blasted stainless steel case with a stealthy, matte finish that shifts effortlessly between rugged functionality and subtle elegance. Depending on the light, its character transforms, from the bold presence of a professional tool watch to a quietly sophisticated companion defined by the interplay of the brushed steel and domed sapphire crystal. The result is a modern dive watch that captures the spirit of exploration while offering a refined aesthetic that transitions seamlessly from ocean depths to urban settings.
Ref. 001/01/01-TRTS-OPS
At its heart beats the Mantramatic MM01 automatic movement, based on the Sellita SW200-1 and enhanced with Sherpa’s world-first “spiritual complication” housing two micro Tibetan prayer wheels. Handcrafted MONOFLEX compressor crowns, a domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, and Super-LumiNova Grade X1 illumination enhance both durability and legibility. Water resistant to 200 meters and certified by DNV, the Sherpa OPS TRTS Edition remains a serious dive instrument with an introspective soul. A discreet TRTS engraving on the diver’s helmet caseback honors the collaboration, while the green vulcanized rubber strap by Joseph Bonnie completes this dynamic balance of technical mastery and modern design. Add a Stainless steel bead blasted bracelet to take the Sherpa x TRTS OPS to the next level (sold separately).
