The Seiko 7549-7009 of 1978 was the world's first quartz professional saturation diver, the battery-powered successor to the 1975 6159-7010 that introduced the titanium case and shrouded "Tuna" form. Its one-piece titanium case is finished in gold titanium nitride, the source of the "Golden Tuna" nickname for the 49 mm cushion shape, under a titanium shroud that replaced the earlier model's chip-prone ceramic, and its sealed construction holds 600 m saturation depths by keeping helium out rather than venting it through an escape valve. (Fratello; Monochrome) The five-jewel cal. 7549A adds quick-set day and date and hacking. Roger Moore wore the reference in North Sea Hijack (1980) before it joined his Bond kit for the wreck dive in For Your Eyes Only. (Bond Lifestyle)
