TEMPVS COMPVTARE Sea Shepherd Watch 47mm

By TLex The Sea Shepherd Watch 47mm is TEMPVS COMPVTARE's tribute to those at the forefront of marine conservation doing battle on the high-seas. It bring awareness to the ongoing damage caused by activities such as illegal whaling, tuna fishing or shark-finning. But first and foremost it's a tribute to the vessel of its name, the Sea Shepard and all who sail on her.

TEMPVS COMPVTARE's Sharkwatcher paid tribute to Rob Stewart and his work, in particular his movie Shark Water which highlighted the plight of hundreds thousands of shark that are illegally finned each year.



From TEMPVS COMPVTARE Established in 1977, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society is an international non-profit, marine wildlife conservation organization. Their mission is to end the destruction of habitat and slaughter of wildlife in the world's oceans in order to conserve and protect ecosystems and species Sea Shepherd uses innovative direct-action tactics to investigate, document, and take action when necessary to expose and confront illegal activities on the high seas. By safeguarding the biodiversity of our delicately-balanced ocean ecosystems, Sea Shepherd works to ensure their survival for future g e n e r a t i o n s . . .



“If you want to stop piracy, you need pirates to do it.” Paul Watson. Sea Shepherd, has taken care of marine sea life for more than 30 years, using direct action tactics against all illegal fishing activities. Sailing under the standard of Jolly Roger, in which the trident of Neptune crosses a shepherd stick, Sea Shepherd has a fleet of 3 boats. At its head, Captain Paul Watson, the charismatic founder of the NGO and a true ecologist Hero.

Sea Shepherd Conservation Society is one of a kind, and can assure having saved during more than 30 years of activity, hundreds of thousands of animals, sharks, whales, dolphins, seals…



Life preservation is a necessity we cannot ignore any longer.

The Sea Shepherd Watch is a tribute to Paul Watson and his organisation.
