A prestigious luxury -watch brand reserves your lively 70s -diving guard

Dive watches from the late 1960s and early 1970s have not been able to get enough of an unmistakable design language that fans of the genre, trapped.

The so-called “golden age of diving awakening” changed dramatically and counted the dial design. This was carried out to improve water resistance, durability and readability, but in an entertaining and energetic way.

The deep diver has a special dial from the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Geometric patterns that are transmitted by popular art at this time decorated dials in living color pallets. The hands grew bigger and quadred. The cases grew and took pillows and elliptical shapes.

Only a few watches demonstrate this designer better than the Girard-Perregaux Deep Diver. It was first introduced in 1969 and consisted of a geometric dial that was reminiscent of a roulette table, a pillow-shaped housing and wide, angular hands.

The praised Swiss Watchmaker has teamed up with the Bamford Watch Department to exceed the legendary diver again, which was explicitly modeled in 1971. This limited run with 350 parts improves the original with a titanium housing, an anti-reflective sapphire crystal and the most modern, in the in-house Caliber GP03300 automatic movement.
