Edox Delfin Diver Date Lady Special Edition Reference 53020 3M BUDDR

Swiss watch brand Edox has launched a new special edition Delfin Diver Date Lady watch in collaboration with free diving champion Marianna Gillespie.

In 2022, Edox launched the Delfin Diver Date Lady Special Edition with a Caribbean-blue dial. The latest iteration has a deep blue dial.

The new Edox Delfin Diver Date Lady Special Edition is a unique diving wristwatch that fuses rugged engineering and dazzling look. Moreover, its striking design pays tribute to the rich heritage of Edox and Delfin.

First introduced in 1961, the Edox Delfin with its patented double O-ring system and reinforced case set the benchmark for water-resistant watches. The patented double seal meant that even with the crown open the Delfin was water-resistant.

Just like the original model, the new Edox Delfin Special Edition is water-resistant 200m. It has a 38mm diameter case in stainless steel.

This rugged tool watch boasts a distinct feminine appearance thanks to the mesmerizing deep-blue dial with 8 shimmering diamond hour markers. It also hosts gold toned hands with luminescent coating.

The hour-markers at 12, 6 and 9 feature luminescent coating and gold-toned borders. At 3 o’clock, the watch has a date window instead of index. The remaining eight markers are gold-toned and square-shaped, with a genuine diamond set into each one.

A scratch-resistant, anti-reflective sapphire crystal protects the dial side. The flexible lugs allow to fit smoothly on either small or larger wrists. The watch features a solid stainless steel case-back.

The 12-sided shaped bezel harks back to a distinctive design first introduced by Edox in 1973. In low light, or under the water, the time can be clearly read thanks to the Super-LumiNova-coated hands. The watch houses the Ronda 515 quartz movement with a date display at 3 o’clock.

Edox SkyDiver Bronze Date Automatic

Swiss watchmaker Edox has launched a new Bronze Date Automatic model to its SkyDiver series that honours an iconic collection.

The original Edox SkyDiver was a military-themed tool watch made in the 1960s and 1970s. Its modern counterpart is now a mainstay of the Edox watch family. Now the Swiss brand introduces the new SkyDiver Bronze Date Automatic watch (80126 BRN BUIDR).

Measuring 42mm diameter, the rose-coloured bronze case is beautifully complemented by an elegant slate grey/blue dial.

The Edox SkyDiver Bronze Date Automatic oozes a classic vintage dress watch vibe, but it is still built tough. Large, Super-LumiNova-coated indices and hands hark back to the easy-to-read, dial displays of military watches. The unidirectional outer ceramic scratch-resistant bezel provides a practical tool for divers up to 30 ATM.

Beating inside the watch is the Edox Calibre 80 automatic movement made by Swiss movement manufacturer Sellita.

The SkyDiver Bronze Date Automatic watch comes with a brown leather strap. An additional black leather strap is provided in a leather pouch.

Known as ‘the mermaid from the East’, Marianna is one of the world’s strongest freedivers, ranked not only in the world top 10 in multiple individual disciplines but overall.

The stainless steel case measures 38mm. Its flexible lugs allow comfortable fitting on either small or larger wrists.

Edox Delfin Mecano 60th Anniversary Limited Edition

Swiss watch brand Edox marks the 60th anniversary of its iconic Delfin series.

In 1961, Edox launched an exceptional diver’s watch with a patented double O-ring system and a reinforced, pressure-resistant case. Shock-proof and 200m water resistant, Delfin set a new benchmark in water-resistant timepieces.

Now Edox honours “The Water Champion’’ with the Delfin Mecano 60th Anniversary Limited Edition. The new anniversary edition not only goes deeper than the 1961 original (300m water-resistance this time); it also sports some impressive design features and technical improvements.

It boasts an open-worked dial with a distinct rotor design. The Super Luminova coated hands and indices allow reading off the time in low light. The watch houses a skeletonized self-winding movement made in Switzerland.

The Delfin Mecano 60th Anniversary Limited Edition watch is fitted with a stylish 12-sided bezel, a distinctive design that Edox first introduced into its watches in 1973. Each side of the bezel represents one-hour increments. The 43mm diameter stainless steel watch case is coated with black-grey PVD for a beautiful feel on the wrist.

Its transparent, fully screwed case back is protected by scratch-resistant anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The moveable lugs allow the wearer to adjust the fit precisely.

Edox Hydro-Sub Automatic Chronometer Limited Edition

Hydro-Sub, the iconic Edox diving watch from the 1960s, is making a spectacular return with a new chronometer. The Edox Hydro-Sub Automatic Chronometer Limited Edition blends its new, improved and contemporary characteristics with the timelessly cool DNA of the original 1960s Hydro-Sub.

The new watch is available in a limited edition of 500 pieces, engraved with “one out of 500” on the case back. It has a water-resistance of 300m. The innovations that made the original Hydro-Sub so impressive, such as the screw-down crown with double O-ring seal, have been retained and perfected.

This time though the unidirectional bezel with 60-minute diving scale surrounding the dial is made out of scratch-resistant ceramic. A 2.5mm-thick crystal sapphire with anti-reflective coating on BOTH sides ensures a crystal-clear view of the dial.

The instantly recognizable lines of the original 1965 timepiece are carried through to the Edox Hydro-Sub Automatic Chronometer Limited Edition, from the ‘blocky’ lugs to the vintage-inspired central handset, which includes a long triangular seconds pointer. The dial indices and minute and hour hands are coated with Super-LumiNova.

The Hydro-Sub Automatic Chronometer Limited Edition’s design is clean and practical, focusing on the essentials and discarding unnecessary clutter. The solid steel bracelet echoes the original Hydro-Sub’s bracelet. Even this has been improved, the matt satin-finish links more precisely aligned and with a smoother finish, ensuring a perfect fit on the wrist. Two pushers easily release the buckle.

The new Hydro-Sub watch comes with a tough, hand-polished 42mm steel case. It houses the Edox automatic Calibre 80. Made by Swiss movement manufacturer Sellita, it provides a 38-hour power reserve. This timepiece meets the strict conditions set by Swiss chronometer testing body COSC.

EDOX Skydiver Automatic Limited Edition

The new SkyDiver Automatic Limited Edition honours the Edox heritage of classic models designed for paratroopers and the military in the 1960s and 1970s. This new timepiece combines the practical 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.

But the materials and construction of the contemporary SkyDiver Limited Edition are pure 21st century. 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 Limited Edition complements its rugged military vibe with practical functionality for any adventure, be it on land, sea or in the air, including a ceramic, scratch-resistant diving bezel and water-resistance to 300m.

The hands and indices are coated with Super-LumiNova in beige, another vintage touch. There’s also a date window at three o’ clock. The SkyDiver Limited Edition houses the Edox Calibre 80 automatic movement, manufactured by Swiss specialist Sellita.

Limited to 600 pieces, the hand-assembled timepiece features a carefully crafted stainless steel case, beautifully offset by a soft leather strap. The buyer also get a choice of two straps, easily swapped via the smartly designed but simple to operate quick-release spring bars on the watch lugs.

The Edox Swiss Watches logo will be present on various BMW M Motorsport racing cars in the future. Edox has been involved in motorsport for many years. The Swiss watch manufacturer has been the official timekeeper of the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC), the Dakar Rally, the FIA World Rally Cross Championship and for the former Formula 1 team Sauber.

In 2008, Edox presented the Edox Chronorally, a revolutionary chronograph with new, sophisticated technical functions originally developed for rally drivers.

This watch was able to measure up to twelve different lap times in analog and accumulate them electromechanically. The characteristic watch with the oversized start and stop pusher quickly became a public favorite and is still a highlight of the Edox collection today.

EDOX CHRONORALLY X-TREME PILOT

BMW drivers will wear Edox Chronorally chronographs in titanium, steel and carbon in connection with this partnership. Edox Chronorally watches are assembled by hand in Les Genevez, Switzerland.

Alexandre Strambini, Chief Executive Officer Edox Swiss Watches, says: ‘‘Edox has a passion for motorsport in all its facets.

Edox Appoints Marianna Gillespie as its Water Champion Ambassador

Swiss watch brand Edox has announced an exciting new partnership with world champion freediver Marianna Gillespie.

The partnership is a natural fit for Edox; the independent watchmaker is known as the Water Champion of the Swiss watch industry and Marianna is a champion in her own right in the exciting, challenging, sport of freediving. The 31-year-old Russian-born Frenchwoman, ranked world No.1 freediver four times and world champion twice, will become an ambassador for the iconic Edox Delfin diver’s watch collection.

Marianna will also become a product advisor to the independent Swiss watchmaker, helping with practical, product- specific guidance to further refine the Edox family of superb diving watches. Edox also plans to present a women’s collection, including a limited edition with diamonds, especially created for Marianna.

The Edox Delfin collection was first introduced in 1961. It was the first watch to use the Double O-ring system which, with a reinforced case back, gave it 200m water resistance – an astonishing achievement 60 years ago. Six decades later, the Delfin collection is still one of the stars of the Edox watch family.

An accomplished swimmer from an early age, Marianna grew up in Moscow. She fell in love with the sport of freediving during her final year of studies at the Russian State Sports University when a friend challenged her to swim 25 metres underwater – without fins. She swam 75m and hasn’t looked back in the sport since.

While most free-divers strive to master a single discipline, Marianna dominates several – in depth and the pool. The current French national record holder in multiple disciplines, Marianna has been world champion twice, ranked No. 1 in the world four times and has also won the prestigious Vertical Blue competition.

Dubbed ‘the mermaid from the East’ by the Le Parisien newspaper, Marianna is one of the world’s strongest freedivers, ranked not only in the world top 10 in multiple individual disciplines but overall as well.

Edox Skydiver Neptunian Automatic, New Model with Orange Dial

Swiss watch brand presents an Orange dial version of the SkyDiver Neptunian automatic, a modern interpretation of the legendary Edox SkyDiver model introduced in 1973.

Water-resistant to an incredible 1’000m, the SkyDiver Neptunian is built ultra-tough to handle not only the pressures of the deep but, thanks to its strong and durable stainless-steel case, anything on the surface as well. A 3mm-thick sapphire crystal protects the classic, clean dial encircled by a ceramic bezel. The case back features a striking engraving of Neptune, the Roman God of the Sea.

The SkyDiver Neptunian’s Super Luminova X1-coated hands and indices ensure exceptional dial visibility in low light – or under water. To enhance even more the readability, the new dial is coloured in orange, one of the most visible colors below water.

This professional grade diving watch incorporates a built-in helium escape valve. The SkyDiver Neptunian’s Automatic Calibre 80 movement offers 42-hour power reserve.

Rumoured to be launched following a Swiss colonel secret request in 1973, the SkyDiver collection pays tribute to paratroopers and the extreme conditions they might face – on land, air or sea.
