The P68 Pathfinder family by traser has always stood for boundless freedom and complete independence. Now, the Swiss outdoor watch pioneer is seamlessly carrying forward this product philosophy while introducing something entirely new: the first traser watch powered by the inexhaustible energy of the sun – the P68 Pathfinder Solar. Thanks to efficient technologies and a functional design, the P68 Pathfinder Solar is a reliable companion at any time, in any place, and under any circumstances.
Explorers, adventurers, and outdoor enthusiasts recognize the sun as a reliable point of reference for navigation and as an inexhaustible source of energy. These are two principles applied in the new P68 Pathfinder Solar. Like all models in the Pathfinder product family, the watch features a compass ring that can be adjusted using a screwed-down crown positioned at 8 o’clock. Together with the position of the sun and the hour hand, this allows for accurate determination of the cardinal directions – and therefore the route – even in the most remote locations and without the need for cell phone or GPS reception.
Now, traser combines the compass ring with a true innovation: The grey dial of the P68 features a solar cell that sustainably powers the precise and efficient Swiss movement. Thanks to a quick-start function, just one minute of sunlight is enough to get a fully discharged watch running. After an additional minute, it has gathered enough energy for a full day. Once fully charged, the P68 Pathfinder Solar boasts a power reserve of eight months in darkness.
It is also thanks to self-illuminating trigalight technology that one can fully rely on the P68 not only in sunlight, but also under difficult lighting conditions and deep into the night. When conventional luminous materials have long faded in the darkness, the hands, indices, and dial of the P68 continue to glow consistently, and remain readable without any external power source for years.
traser pairs the geographic and energy independence of the P68 Pathfinder Solar with great physical resilience. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, a stainless-steel case with PVD coating water resistant up to 10 bar, and screw-down crowns protect the innovative watch technology inside the P68. A choice of a grey-brown or black textile strap, as well as a dark rubber strap, securely and comfortably fastens the timepiece to the wearer’s wrist.
The new P68 Pathfinder Solar by traser guarantees limitless independence. With this timepiece, no place is too remote, no journey too far, and no night too dark. Wearer and watch follow their own path – both drawing their drive from the inexhaustible power of nature.
