Created in collaboration with Collective Horology, the Formex REEF Radiant Bronze for Collective comes with a unique in-house bronze dial.
Available Exclusively from Collective Shop, the 300m water resistant diving watch features a vertically brushed bronze dial. A rarity in watchmaking, this bronze dial was developed and produced by Formex’s in-house dial production facility.
The vertical brushed finish allows the dial to take on a variety of rich and vibrant hues depending on light sources and the angles from which it’s viewed.
The Formex REEF Radiant Bronze for Collective has a 42mm diameter case in stainless steel. Equipped with a 120-click, unidirectional black ceramic bezel, this diving watch is available on either a stainless-steel bracelet or rubber strap. It comes with an innovative interchangeable bezel system.
It also offers quick-release system for all strap options, and gradual micro-adjustment system. Inside the 11.4mm thick case beats the COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 automatic movement with 56 hours of power reserve.
