and my Mesopelagic
is my new to me, previously loved Dievas Oceantimer 1330
The whole motif of this tool watch seems to be beefy but simplistic. Strangely the sides of the case and bracelet are highly polished. Blends very nicely though and softens the brutishness of the rest of the watch.
Watch Specifications:
Movement: Swiss serviceable quartz movement ETA955.612
Dial: Black with luminous markers. Unique red minute hand.
Luminance: Luminous paint
Date: Quickset date at 3 O'clock
Case: Fine satin brushed stainless steel. Polished sides
Case Back: Dievas signed circular brushsed stainless steel. Held by 6 hexagon screws.
Bezel: One direction rotating stainless steel bezel. Engraved numbers.
Crown: Dievas signed Screwdown 4mm crown
Lug: 22mm
Crystal: Thick flat sapphire crystal
Strap: Dievas signed full Satin brushed stainless steel SEL bracelet.
Water resistance: 400m/1330ft
Dimensions: 42mm in diameter, 52mm lug to lug, 14mm thick
Rather large watch but sits quite nicely on my 6 1/2 inch wrist
Inside of flip lock and double push button clasp is highly polished in contrast to the satin brushed outer surfaces. Surprising when opened.
6 Beefy hexagonal screws hold on the back.
A little small but this is a quartz watch so how often will the screw in crown need to be adjusted. Clean with no guards.
Bracelet is quite attractive and comfortable but Ill bet this watch would be killer on a heavy strap.
One more, sorry the light wasnt very good today.
Watch weighs in at 7.5 oz (212.6 grams) after 5 links removed. Nicely balanced by bracelet.
All in all a very nice piece marred only by disappointing lume. It starts out quite nicely but fades rapidly. Tubes like on my other Dievas watches would greatly benifit this one but drive up the price also. I think Ill keep this one for a while.
Hope you enjoy the pics.
