This watch is classed as “Like New”, which means that it is either a customer return or a former photo sample. As such it may have very minor signs of wear and may not be supplied with the original box. However, it has still been checked to ensure that it is running perfectly, and it has a 6 month warranty.
Vintage style that harks back to the era of the great underwater explorers. Subtle design touches and advanced movement technology mean this watch will appeal to anyone with an appreciation for the robust yet refined style of classic dive watches.
Choose from 5 different colour options, all complemented by a superior quality stainless steel strap. Each colour of the watch is made in small numbers and has a unique batch number. This watch is made even more desirable by the affordable price point.
The unique uni-directional 120 click bezel is constructed by the ring being filled with protective transparent epoxy resin, which encases the applied lume pip at 12 o'clock and printed markers set on a sunburst metal ring. The watch is available with the tried and tested PT5000 which is one of several clones of the original and now unavailable ETA 2824 design. We have used these movements for several years now and have very positive feedback in relation to their performance.

Supplied fitted with a solid stainless-steel bracelet with contrasting brushed and polished finishes. The bracelet has screw in links which can be removed with a 1.2mm screwdriver.
