That's the ref. 5090 'Sculpture'
Made for a few years around year 2000 for Russian market although sold elsewhere. All Sculpture models had a blue enamel decoration on the crown. It was a commercial failure and never saw the popularity of the Nautilus or Aquanaut. However, it is rare, only a couple thousand were made.

Bruno, Well....I don't know. maybe another look out of that plastic wrapping may change people's view: The whole case is curved...either concave or convex like a sculpture...almost not a flat surface in sight except for the back. The case making process m...
this is indeed something else
I really like the watch you posted ! But the one on the first picture with the cheap looking dial and the ugly bracelet is not my cup of tea.
