Description
The Bathyscaphe is our most versatile watch, with a highly wearable 42.9 x 49.5 x 12.5 millimeter case CNC machined out of a solid block of a salt water resistant marine-grade Bronze Alloy,  The caseback and crown screw tightly down to ensure a water resistance of 1,000 meters (3,333 feet) and, should you find yourself in a helium-enriched diving bell.
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.

Classic design, clean workmanship and a fair price = probably best bronze dive watch on market. 😉

The Aquadive Bathyscaphe 100 bronze is a very unique watch, it is an extremely well built and well designed professional diver.
From the genuine Isofrane strap, to the ceramic bezel insert, to the highly adjusted movement which comes with the certificate, and of course the German crafted solid bronze alloy case.
This diver has superlative accuracy, and offers a lot for your money spent. Lume is ridiculously bright and long lasting.
The bronze Bathyscaphe will make you happy happy, as it is simply flawless!
I plan on purchasing more Aquadive pieces in the future.
