WHEN PETRODIVE DIVERS ADOPT THE RALF TECH WRX OFFSHORE

September 6, 2022

Timing, Precision, Reliability, Efficiency, all these words can define the know-how of PETRODIVE as RALF TECH creations. Today however, these two worlds meet in a limited edition WRX « Offshore ».

Equipping the majority of special forces units in France and beyond, the WRX is a safe and efficient tool. Used by professional divers, the WRX stands out as the timepiece of elite units.

WRX have spectacular technical features with a good seal of up to 1,000 metres.

“In addition to guaranteeing a good seal , these new WRX are equipped with a new “Electric” movement, new “Sandwich” dials and an innovative encapsulation system.

The new WRX was launched on 8 October after two years of development and experimentation in deep water with the help of the French Navy, explains Franck Huyghe, President of RALF TECH and former professional diver.

These technical characteristics, validated by sea trials, constitute the sum of all RALF TECH know-how.

“ We have already equipped PETRODIVE divers with the original WRX “O” Hybrid. We are delighted to continue our collaboration with RALF TECH for more than 5 years, said Stéphane Troté, Petrodive’s CEO.

Our offshore divers operate up to -200 m and are also sometimes forced to dive in hostile environments.

Operating in a range of use from -10° to +55°, which is highly resistant to shocks and vibrations, the "offshore" WRX is the right tool for our divers," confirms Stéphane Troté.
