TechnoMarine was founded in 1997 with the launch of the "Raft", achronograph on a transparent plastic strap, selling 50,000 models inits first year and creating an entirely new category of luxury fashiontimepieces, one which triggered a revolution in the luxury watchindustry. Initially conceived as a "vacation souvenir watch", the"Raft" paved the way for a new generation of fine timepieces.
In1999, TechnoMarine added diamonds to the rotating bezel of the "Raft",and the "TechnoDiamond" was born, the first ever combination ofdiamonds on a diving chronograph with an interchangeable gel strap. Theindustry claimed that the idea was "insane", and TechnoMarinesingle-handedly managed to revolutionize the market with a product bornof the never-before conceived and almost "sacrilegious" associationbetween plastic and diamonds. More than 150,000 models were sold whilethousands of look-alikes began to flood the market.
