Time & Depth
The sea has driven him to undertake ambitious projects and innovative partnerships, blending his scientific pursuits with education and advocacy. One of Fabien's most notable recent achievements is "Mission 31." Linking science and the #watchfam, he and 31 Doxa timepieces spent 31 days living and working in Aquarius, the undersea marine laboratory and habitat off the coast of the Florida Keys. This mission set a new record for the longest-ever expedition in a stationary habitat beneath the sea. Accelerating research, it captured vital data and imagery showcasing critical issues, such as climate change and its impact on marine ecosystems—significantly contributing to our understanding of the underwater world, its ecology, and the urgent need for its conservation.
Throughout his career, Fabien Cousteau has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the oceans. His immersive underwater missions, educational outreach, and innovative watch collaborations continue to inspire a global audience to appreciate and protect our planet's precious marine environments. Fabien's work stands as another beacon of hope and a call to action for the preservation of our underwater world.
