Antarctic Diver 38mm Mens Watch Black

The first thing you notice when you put the new Antarctic Diver on your wrist is its presence. The impression of quality is enhanced by the solid heft of its universally sized 38mm-diameter (up from 36. 5mm), 12. 9mm-thick case. Let's just say you can confidently take it on any (underwater) excursion, with plenty of margin. Slim, comfortable, built for any task, whether it's navigating a reef or a cocktail party, it exudes casual chic with that conversation-starting vintage vibe. As far as the overall design of the watch is concerned, it looks exactly like the original, complete with patinaed «cream lattev hands and indexes. To continue the 'blast from the past' look, the Antarctic Diver comes with a generous, easy to read black dial providing a crisp backdrop for the markings, all in the same shape and position and as on the original, including the unmistakable script. The bezel provides precise timing and is easy to use. The date window is located at 3 o'clock. True to the original, the dial comes with the discreet 'red cross hairs'. Back in the day, the buyer could choose between several versions (red or white 'cross hairs'; the numbers 1-12 on the bezel). The reissue honors the iconic version with red cross hairs and the minimalist, non-numbered bezel. The tribute would not be complete without the legendary Nivada Automatic logo at 12 o'clock and Antarctic-Diver in the unmistakable vintage script at six o'clock faithfully echoing the aesthetics of the original. The caseback is engraved with the signature emblem of the Antarctic collection: the profile of a penguin, an allegory of the great cold and a nod to the name of the collection.
