Bathyscaphe 100
The Bathyscaphe is our most versatile watch, with a highly wearable 43 x 49 x 15 millimeter case CNC machined out of a solid block of German 316L surgical stainless steel, DLC steel, or marine-grade bronze alloy. The caseback and crown screw tightly down to ensure a water resistance of 1,000 meters (3,333 feet).
The bezel is topped with a scratch-resistant and luminescent ceramic timing ring and precisely ratchets through 120 positions, allowing you to time everything from decompression stops to pizza deliveries.
Inside ticks a self-winding Swiss movement, the ETA 2836-2, which drives hours, minutes and sweep seconds, a quickset date function, and is adjusted to five positions for accuracy.
Befitting a capable watersports watch, the Bathyscaphe 100 comes fitted with a 22-millimeter ISOfrane rubber strap with stainless steel Aquadive-signed buckle.
The Bathyscaphe 100 GMT is limited to 500 pieces (of each color) and the individual number is engraved on the caseback.

My wrist is only 6.25 inch and I was concerned that it will be too big for my wrist. Aquadive has been extremely help with all of my questions regarding my concern and questions about the watch. They are very responsive with emails, replying a few times a day!!!
The watch itself is awesome!!! Finish and the detail on the watch is extremely nice. The lume is beautiful. I actually like the Isofrane strap more than I thought. It is very comfortable. Wish I can afford a DLC now. Well…maybe next year.

Very nice all around!
Best features – Hands are very well done making it very easy to tell the time in all conditions and light levels. Great bezel action.
Crown is easily operated in all positions. Lume is perfect – Lasts quite a long time. Everything needed is illuminated clearly and time can be read instantly.
A great alternative to an old Baby Ploprof.
Very nicely boxed with dive straps and test report.
Looks best with SS mesh bracelet

Rock-solid, finely finished and super-reliable Swiss ETA workhorse movement, adjusted in 5 places. As well as being an aesthetically appealing piece and easy to wear on the ISOfrane strap, this watch will take many hard knocks over the years and still perform well. Great value for money. My only complaints are that the bezel size and writing on the dial could both be bigger, given the dimensions of this watch and the lume could have been a more attractive white, so as to be more discreet.
