Design and Construction
The Aquatrident dive watch presents a commanding presence with its distinctive bronze case measuring approximately 1.2-1.3 inches (30-34mm) in diameter and 0.58 inches (14.75mm) in thickness. This substantial profile creates a bold statement on the wrist while maintaining comfortable proportions. The warm, unique patina that naturally develops on bronze over time gives each timepiece its own character, evolving with you through every adventure.
The clean, numberless dial design offers exceptional legibility with applied indices coated with premium luminous material for excellent visibility in low-light conditions. Protected by scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, this watch face remains clear and readable in all environments. The round case shape follows classic dive watch tradition while incorporating subtle modern design elements that distinguish it from ordinary timepieces.
Movement and Performance
At the heart of this dive watch beats a reliable automatic self-winding mechanical movement. This sophisticated mechanism harnesses the natural motion of your wrist to power the watch, eliminating the need for battery changes while connecting you to the proud tradition of mechanical watchmaking. The movement operates with precision to drive the hour, minute, and second hands along with the complete calendar function.
The self-winding system provides convenience and reliability for daily wear, while the mechanical nature of the movement offers the distinctive smooth sweep of the second hand that watch enthusiasts appreciate. Each component works in harmony to deliver consistent timekeeping performance worthy of the watch’s robust exterior.
Comfort and Wearability
Secured to your wrist with a genuine leather strap measuring 8.5 inches (215mm) in length and available in widths from 0.8 to 0.94 inches (20-24mm), this timepiece balances substantial presence with all-day comfort. The traditional buckle clasp ensures secure attachment while allowing for easy adjustment to achieve your perfect fit.
Despite its robust construction, the watch maintains excellent wearability for daily use. The leather strap softens with wear, conforming to your wrist for increased comfort over time. Versatile enough to complement both casual attire and more formal settings, this timepiece transitions effortlessly between environments, making it an ideal companion for the modern adventurer.

The premium Swiss luminous material applied to the hands and markers provides exceptional readability in low-light conditions both above and below the water’s surface—a critical feature for timing dives or nighttime adventures.
The watch’s military-inspired retro aesthetic combines vintage charm with modern functionality, creating a timepiece that stands out with authentic character.
