Swiss watchmaker Edox presents SkyDiver 38 Date Automatic, an outstanding timepiece to its family of rugged sports watches.
Honouring the Edox heritage of classic models designed for paratroopers and the military in the 1960s and 1970s, SkyDiver 38 Date Automatic combines the no functionality of a dive watch and the style and aesthetics of a precision pilot’s watch.
The beautiful case, black dial, striking indices, oversized crown and domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal faithfully reflect a SkyDiver watch designed by Edox in the 1960s. The black dial reflects the precision instruments that once accompanied adventurers conquering land, sea or air.
Military styling runs right through the SkyDiver’s DNA, from its semi-matt finish dial to the solid case back proudly portraying the emblem of a paratrooper unit.
The SkyDiver 38 Date Automatic has a ceramic, scratch-resistant diving bezel. It has a water-resistance of up to 300m. The hands and indices are coated with Super-LumiNova in beige, another vintage touch, and there’s also a date window at 3 o’ clock.
The SkyDiver houses the Edox Calibre 80 automatic movement, manufactured by Swiss specialist Sellita. The hand-assembled timepiece features a carefully crafted stainless steel case, beautifully offset by a strong bracelet.
The Edox SkyDiver 38 Date Automatic comes also with more colourful combinations and turns itself towards a new unisex audience. The brand is also offering the SkyDiver Date Automatic watch with a 42mm case.
