Watch Description

THE IDEAL TOOLWATCH

The Aquascaphe is capable of diving to depths of up to 200m. Toolwatches are often considered to be the ultimate daily watch as they're waterproof, scratch-resistant, shockproof, and they look great in any situation.


The Aquascaphe is a watch with a true respect of the vintage codes, without compromises, within the modern quality standards. The diameter is 38mm at the case and 39mm with the bezel, with 47mm lug to lug and 13mm of thickness (11mm without glass).


The Aquascaphe Classic has a 120 clicks rotating bezel, an essential part of a diving watch. It allows you to control the dive time and thus to respect the decompression stops. The insert is made of sapphire, known as one of the toughest materials on earth, making this watch ultra-resistant.
