ESCAPEOCEAN features several different shades of blue and black, while ESCAPEJUNGLE opts for a more familiar camouflage arrangement of green tones with highlights in bright red. ESCAPEDESERT rounds out the collection with a mix of earthy browns and bright orange.

The watches use a quartz chronograph movement with running seconds, chronograph minutes and 10-hour counter sub dials and a date window. All are water resistant to 30m.
