Product Code: DIV/82PVD/AU/ND

These diver's watches are a modern remake of our 1980s model, featuring a black PVD stainless steel case. One variant of these watches was specifically remade for a U.S contractor who had secured a large sale to one of their clients. The watch boasts a robust black PVD stainless steel case and is equipped with a high-performance automatic 24-jewel self-winding movement. We have made several upgrades to the original design, such as a shatter and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and increased water resistance rating.

Special Covert PVD Finish

The covert matt black non-reflective PVD finish used for this watch is often specified in military contracts for special forces units, anti-terrorist units, and various covert operations. Unlike painted finishes on lower-quality watches that can fade or rub off, this PVD process alters the steel's color at a molecular level, ensuring durability even during heavy usage. However, the PVD finish can be damaged if the case is badly gouged or worn down by continuous heavy abrasion against hard surfaces.

Historical and Technical Background

Inspired by the 1980 UK MOD specification for automatic diver's watches (DEF STAN 66-4 [Part 1] Issue 3), this model retains key design elements such as the unidirectional bezel and boldly marked dial with tritium paint. The original MOD specification also called for a mineral glass crystal, as documented in the MOD file shown in the final two images. While staying true to the spirit of the original, this updated version incorporates modern improvements, such as the use of non-radioactive paint and the inclusion of sapphire crystal, as detailed below.

Benefits of Sapphire Crystal

Many customers ask about the benefits of sapphire crystal over standard mineral crystal. Synthetic sapphire is extremely strong, shatter-resistant, and scratch-resistant, making it ideal for military and security personnel, police officers, and active outdoor enthusiasts. These groups account for over 70% of our customer base.

Our observations show that over 90% of incidents involving cracked watch crystals occur with mineral glass. Even hardened mineral crystals do not match the durability of sapphire. Sapphire crystals are strengthened through a heat treatment process that removes internal stresses and are then coated with two layers of anti-reflective coating. While sapphire crystals are more expensive, they offer superior longevity, resilience, and performance, justifying their use in higher-end watches.


These models represent excellent value and are competitively priced for such a high-performance automatic watch. This watch combines the historical design and functional integrity of its predecessors with modern upgrades to meet the needs of today's professionals and enthusiasts.

* While the original watches used tritium, these new versions use Luminova, with the encircled "T" retained for historical accuracy.

    Very uncomfortable
    Size: 7, Color: Brown Patent
    Most uncomfortable shoes I own. The middle part is so hard and digs into your toes making it really painful. I wear a lot of heels and never have I had a pair that hurt this bad.

    Heel girly
    Size: 8, Color: Burgundy Patent, Size: 8, Color: Burgundy Patent
    The bottom is very slippery and you need cushions to go at the bottom of them. You have to be a real heel girly to walk in them, slightly comfortable.
