Design Story: "The DHU motto, 'Piscatores Hominum (Fishers of Men)' is taken from Matthew 4:18, and has a long association with military HUMINT, having been first used by the DHU's antecedent units. From the image of the fisherman is drawn the retiarius gladiator, or 'net fighter'. The retiarius' traditional weapons, the trident and net, form the DHU logo. As such, the retiarius' trident is represented on the watch-face.
The depth rating of 418m/1371Ft micro-printed in purple underneath the trident is a reference to Matthew 4:18. Task Force 418 was the cover name under which the DHU operated in one of many theatres, providing significant impact for UK Defence. The actual tested depth rating of the watch is 200m."
