The market of diving watches it is crowded with large diameter proposals. The luxury diver reference, the Rolex Submariner, has grown over time to today's 41 millimeters. Many others luxury diving watches they became more and more massive.
Who has the small wrist, like ladies or men of thin constitution, or those who simply like less imposing measures, must not despair: the producers of luxury watches offer several human sized divers.
Let's find out some of them in this article.
Breitling Super Ocean Heritage 38
The Breitling proposal has a compact diameter of 38 millimeters. It is a watch with a strong visual impact despite its small size. It is powered by a valid ETA modified by Breitling. Particular aesthetics with indication of the small seconds at six o'clock, which distinguishes it from traditional divers.
Longines Legend Diver 36
A great success of Longines, the Legend Diver it takes up the "Dress Divers" who got lucky in the XNUMXs. This category of diving watches is characterized by the presence of an internal rotating bezel, instead of the external one usually present on divers. Immersion times are calculated by rotating the bezel using a second crown, an aesthetic feature that makes them immediately recognizable.
Il Longines Legend Diver it is available in two sizes, 36 and 40 millimeters. It features ETA-derived movements, a natural choice for a brand of the Swatch group.
Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m Co-Axial 37.5mm
The long name of this model hides a concentration of innovation: in addition to the Co-Axial escapement and to the helium valve, this Omega Seamasters brings with it a water resistance of sixty atmospheres. The sapphire crystal and the transparent caseback complete the features of this one Omega, which we can define the most technical model of our exhibition today.
Oris Divers 65 Bronze
Oris recently unveiled a line of diving watches inspired by its models from the past. In particular, theOris Divers 65 Bronze it is a watch with a diameter of 36 or 40 millimeters depending on the version, therefore also suitable for female wrists. It is moved by a Sellita automatic. The choice of placing the date window at 6 o'clock is appreciable: it does not disturb the style of the clock, also distinguished by another reference vintage-modern: a domed glass, yes, but sapphire.
Tudor Black Bay 58
A model that has met with considerable success is certainly the Tudor Black Bay 58. This timepiece, equipped with a Tudor-manufactured caliber, is a reference to early Rolex Submariners, those with a fit comparable to that of a traditional watch. Here too we are on measures that are not excessive: it is in fact a 39 mm.
Sharks Sub 39
A dive watch manufactured by a professional diving watch brand like Squale cannot fail to appear among our recommendations. The beautiful domed anti-reflective sapphire crystal goes well with the aesthetics vintage of this timepiece with a diameter of 39 millimeters, inspired by the first Squale dive watches from the XNUMXs.
