The classic 500 meter professional diver with the characteristic and famous "von Büren" case. A watch case that was part of many famous dive-watches over the decades, as Squale also supplied these to other big and small Swiss brands. A recognition of the sheer quality of engineering and timeless design by Squale founder: Charles von Büren.

This Militaire version of the famous Squale 1521 collection is focused on increased legibility and features a clean matte black dial with large lumed markers, no date and just one logo.

This classic diver has a screw-in case back, and a 316L stainless steel case with dimensions of 42mm x 13mm for a comfortable presence on your wrist. Despite the high water resistance rating of 500 meters the case has been kept to a slim 13mm thanks to the unique case construction.

This highly recognizable shape features a signed screw-down crown at the 4 o´clock position which is recessed and well protected against unwanted impact. Due to the recessed crown and the elegant flowing design of the case the watch is exceptionally comfortable to wear even on a smaller wrist. The hand-painted dial with the distinctly designed luminescent markers of Swiss Superluminova provides excellent legibility in all lighting conditions.

The smooth, coin-shaped 120 click uni-directional bezel partners well with the bright orange minute hand providing crucial, at a glance, information on remaining or elapsed dive-time. The scratch-resistant flat sapphire crystal which is enhanced with anti-reflective treatment protects this timepiece up to 500 meters below sea-level or 50 atmosphere of pressure.

The great attention to detail and quality is easy to see in the acid-etched case back and the sapphire-crystal guarding the superluminova on the dial. These details give this iconic timepiece a contemporary look and feel whilst still paying respect to its classic unique design and brand heritage.

The Squale 1521 Militaire is powered by a Swiss made Sellita SW 200 automatic movement which provides mechanical reliability and accuracy under the toughest circumstances.

This watch comes with a black high quality Italian 100% Homage Tropic rubber strap with signed buckle or alternatively a Milanese stainless steel mesh bracelet with signed deployment clasp.

A purpose build tool-watch which is elegant and reliable, a perfect companion for every day adventures!
