Merlion 50th Anniversary
3A tribute to a cherished national icon - the Merlion 50 is a 40mm BOLDR Safari dive watch encased in full stainless steel and rated for 20 ATM. Designed with a sunburst blue dial face, its unique indexes are inspired by the official symbol (situated at 10 o’clock) of Merlion’s 50th Anniversary.
The logo is a stylized take on the iconic Merlion statue which spouts water from its mouth - the ‘5’ representing the waterspout and the ‘0’ as the Merlion itself, coated in gold to mark its Golden Jubilee. The geometric twists and wave-like structures of the logo are a nod to Singapore’s cityscape and riverside surroundings, a design we adapted to the accompanying indexes.
Built for any adventure, the case has a 60-minute unidirectional dive bezel (exclusive to this model) lumed at 15-minute markers and a flat sapphire crystal with AR.
We hope this piece brings you prosperity and a brighter future!

Great watch and great value
A fantastic piece of Singapore memorabilia. Well encapsulated in an automatic movement within a Titanium casing. With the Merlion motif it was a fitting gift to a dear colleague moving away from Singapore for good. It was well-received and highly appreciated. I am sure he will enjoy this for many years to come.
United StatesOutstanding
I grew up in SG, and this beautiful watch makes me miss it dearly. Wonderful dial, details, and finishing. I did admittedly switch out for a Nylon parachute strap for the sportier and more comfortable daily wear. Highly recommend!
United KingdomA perfect diver watch that's a collectors edition!
I bought the Safari Merlion straight after getting the email informing me of it's release! I'm so glad that I did as it is an excellent watch, at a great price - especially as it is a limited edition of 100 pieces. The new Safari case and quick release bracelet are perfect. The dial mainly looks black, but in certain lights reveals itself as a gorgeous sunburst midnight blue.
