Squale
Sub-37 Legend

Some dive watches are built for display cases. This one’s built for salt water.

Squale has been making cases for dive watches since 1959. The Sub-37 Legend takes all of that heritage and puts it in a 37mm case that wears like it was designed for your wrist, not your ego.

At 37mm across and 11mm thick, the proportions are compact in the best possible way. It sits flat. It slides under a cuff. And it’s rated to 300 meters, which is deeper than most recreational divers will ever go. The polished 316L steel case, screw-in crown, and screw-in caseback mean business.

The Sellita SW 200-1 inside is a proven workhorse. Elaboré grade, 38-hour power reserve, 26 jewels. Wind it Saturday morning, it’ll still be ticking Monday. The sapphire box crystal has anti-reflective coating for readability, and the monodirectional bezel clicks with the kind of precision you want when you’re timing a decompression stop.

The dial is black with printed indexes that glow warm through SuperLuminova Old Radium. It’s that vintage radium look without any of the vintage radium problems. Each watch is individually numbered and comes on a black Bonetto rubber strap from Italy. Comfortable from day one, built to handle whatever you throw at it.
