PHOENIX—As
every Dirk Pitt ® fan can tell you, the beloved character never
begins an adventure without his orange-faced DOXA dive watch. Now
fans of the books and the upcoming movie, SAHARA ®, can take a step
in Dirk’s shoes or at least his watch. DOXA Watches LTD, the
traditional high end Swiss watch manufacturer, will give away 20 of
their new Special Edition Dirk Pitt ® orange-faced dive watches,
valued at $1249 USD each, to fans at SAHARA© events throughout North
America. Before Matthew McConaughey was cast as hero Dirk Pitt® in
the movie SAHARA©, (premiering April 8th nation-wide)
internationally syndicated columnist Liz Smith asked in her column
“Who will wear the orange faced DOXA?” As soon as the announcement
was made, DOXA presented the athletic actor with a genuine DOXA just
like the one Dirk Pitt ® wears in all his adventures. SAHARA© was
produced by Bristol Bay and will be distributed by Paramount
Pictures. For more information on the movie visit

Pitt's ® orange faced DOXA dive watch" is available exclusively on
the website at

“We
are thrilled to be participating in the promotion of the movie
SAHARA© in conjunction with Paramount Pictures. Matthew McConaughey
wore the DOXA Sub 600T throughout the filming of SAHARA© which is
sure to be a huge hit,” Rick Marei, Vice President of Marketing for
DOXA Watches of Switzerland, related.
“There was a natural synergy between DOXA and the movie SAHARA ® so
I set up the contact between DOXA and the producers and
distributors,” Carole V. Bartholomeaux, DOXA’s representative
stated. “DOXA just introduced a new Special Edition Dirk Pitt®
version of their famous orange-faced SUB 600T dive watch.”
