The Oceaneva WaveRacer is a limited-edition automatic chronograph in Grade 5 titanium, built to 1000m water resistance. It pairs an integrated column-wheel movement with a vertical clutch, a combination Oceaneva says no other watch offers at once. The 44mm case is 16.5mm thick with a domed sapphire crystal, and the mint burst dial has dark gray guilloché subdial rings with BGW9 lume on the bezel, hands and markers. It suits collectors who want serious dive-watch specs and chronograph function without prestige-brand pricing; owners praise the finish, light titanium feel and smooth pushers, though some want a bracelet and a clasp instead of the strap and tang buckle.

Owners rate the WaveRacer highly, calling the build and finish excellent for the money and the titanium case very light on the wrist. They like the mint dial up close and the smooth pushers and crown, and see it as strong value against prestige brands. The main complaints are the strap-only setup and the tang buckle.
The Oceaneva WaveRacer is an automatic chronograph with a Grade 5 titanium case and bezel. It has an integrated column-wheel movement with a vertical clutch design and is water resistant to 1000m. The case is 16.5mm thick including the slightly domed sapphire crystal.
The dial is mint burst with dark gray Guilloché subdial rings. The bezel, hands and hour markers use Grade A BGW9 Swiss Luminova. The bezel is DLC-coated, and the strap is German FKM rubber with a polished Grade 5 titanium buckle.
Grade 5 titanium is 40% lighter than stainless steel and resists scratches and corrosion. Each model is a limited edition of 50 pieces, and every watch is individually serialized (XX/50).
