TOURBY Lawless Diver BASE

By TLex Here's a diver after my own heart! The new LAWLESS Diver Base (model A-F5xx Ref. 6010.4) from Tourby Watches comes with a very simple design philosophy - less is more!



Starting with matte black canvas, the watch features a sterile bezel with single 12hr luminous marker. The theme of minimalism is continued to the watch dial, which is also very basic with only hour markers (no minute markers). This reducing the watch to its simplest form . . .



That is until we turn the watch over to see an eye-catching three dimensional engraving depicting the Roman god of the sea, Neptune on his chariot with his trident in hand being pulled through the waves by his horse with an inscription that reads:‘Imperium Neptuni Regis’, the Domain of King Neptune.



Features include: 45.5mm x 16mm DLC coated watch case, 500m of water-resistance, a screwdown caseback and crown, an AR-coated domed Sapphire crystal, BGW9 lume on dial and hands, a Swiss ETA 2824.2 Elabore adjusted to 5 positions in Tourby's German workshops, a rubber divers strap with a Stainless steel black buckle and a leather travel box.



Price 1090€ + shipping. A COSC Chronometer certified movement is also available for an extra costs 265€.
