Diving Watch - buy Divers Watches with Swiss Movements

A divers watch is a watch for diving that allows a diver to monitor their bottom time often with a one way bezel to show elapsed time.

Many contemporary sports watches owe their design to diving watches.

Diving watch Characteristics

Diving watches can be digital or analog. Analog diving watches will often feature a rotating bezel, which allows for easier reading of elapsed time from a specific point. This is used to calculate the length of a dive. The bezel can be turned so the wearer can align the zero on the bezel with the watch's seconds or minutes hand. After a period of time passes, the elapsed time can be read off the bezel. This saves the wearer having to perform the subtraction that would be necessary if the watch's regular dial was used. It's also much easier to read this larger dial while underwater. Digital dive watches usually perform the elapsed time function by use of a standard stop watch function. Some digital divers watches also feature a depth gauge and logging features.

Many brands offer highly functional diving watches for optimum level of performance during an underwater dive. Most feature a rubber strap or metal bracelet, in preferance to a leather band. Some serious models are fitted with a helium gas release valve to prevent the crystal being blown off by re-equalisation of pressure when a diver returns to the surface.

Christopher Ward (of London) is a fanatical scuba-diver as is Philip his Swiss trained manufacturing partner so you can imagine how important an addition to the CWL collection their first divers watch is. The brief was quite simple: Create the ultimate professional divers watch that marries extreme condition functionality with exquisite good looks. The quality of this watch will be understood by all those familiar with all good things horological (the Swiss Ronda calibre 715 movement, the additional thickness of the sapphire glass, the screw-down case back with the engraved No Decompression Table - perhaps a world first!, the 2-piece uni-directional bezel and Superluminova markings, etc) which means the Kingfisher Swiss Movement Professional Diving Watch is water resistant to an astonishing 30 atmospheres/1000 feet, but to understand its beauty as well, just look at it.

The Kingfisher Diver Pro Swiss Movement Divers Watch (RRP ranging from approximately £135 to £155) is the latest addition to the Christopher Ward collection. With time a critical factor in any dive, professional divers and style gurus alike, can rely on this beauty for split-second accuracy.
