THE DAVOSA ARGONAUTIC BRONZE COMBINES A HISTORIC MATERIAL WITH HIGH FUNCTIONALITY

Bronze has two properties that the typical case materials of stainless steel and gold do not: it looks unique and the material forms an unmistakable patina within a short time. The Argonautic Bronze comes in a limited edition of only 300 timepieces. Once again, Swiss watchmaker DAVOSA displays its expertise in making a watch with intricate mechanical features. While a helium valve, the use of high-tech ceramics and a sophisticated automatic movement ensure high levels of safety and precision when diving.

Diving, while wearing a DAVOSA Argonautic Bronze on your wrist, signals to the world that you are a trendsetter and yet part of a centuries-old tradition of seafaring and diving. After all, for centuries bronze has been the material of choice for nautical devices as well as for the first diving bells. Now some watch manufacturers have begun rediscovering this heritage material. Bronze is easy to work with and its unique, yellowish red sheen gives it a distinct look compared to materials like gold, silver and stainless steel. What is more, the surface reacts to its wearer and prevailing climatic conditions, so the DAVOSA Argonautic Bronze develops an individual patina in the shortest time. This makes each watch one of a kind in what is already a strictly limited edition.

RELIABILITY IN THE DETAILS

When it comes to safety, quality and design, the timepiece certainly fulfils all the requirements of a first-class divers’ watch. At the heart of the watch resides a Swiss Sellita SW200 precision automatic movement, housed in a bronze case with a diameter of 42 mm and height of 13.5 mm. Anti-reflective, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and a screwed crown complete the look. An elaborate relief of a stylised diving helmet with a water surround decorates the screw-down, black PVD-plated, stainless steel back and indicates that the watch is part of a limited edition.

MADE FOR DEEP WATERS

The hands, indices and the satined or polished bezel inlay made from high-tech ceramic and detailed with vintage, ‘old radium’ Super-Luminova team up beautifully with the colour play of the bronze and plated stainless steel. In combination with the clearly structured, either blue or black dial, a glance suffices to instantly grasp all important information. Finally, the DAVOSA Argonautic Bronze is a professional divers’ watch, offering water resistance down to 300 metres where light is scarce.

And thanks to a manual helium valve, you can rely fully on the DAVOSA Argonautic Bronze when resurfacing: with an open valve, the lighter helium molecules leave the case first, thus preventing the glass and seal from pushing out of the case as a result of excess pressure. Diving and resurfacing times can be set precisely using the rotatable bezel ring, making you perfectly prepared for every dive.

Even on dry land the DAVOSA Argonautic Bronze is undoubtedly an eye-catching timepiece: reading the time is always a pleasure thanks to its uniquely attractive design. And irrespective of its time-telling functions, this watch is an expression of a unique individuality.

EXCLUSIVE LOOK

Whether you wear the DAVOSA Argonautic Bronze on land or underwater: the engraved serial number, located on the side of the case at 9 o’clock, is proof of the model’s exclusivity. And of course, a masterpiece like this demands a very special presentation: it comes in a presentation case made from varnished wood with a matching bronze DAVOSA tag.

The DAVOSA Argonautic Bronze Limited Edition is now available at all All Watches Boutiques.
