Product Code: DIV/82PVD/AU/ND

These diver's watches are a modern remake of our 1980s model, featuring a black PVD stainless steel case. One variant of these watches was specifically remade for a U.S contractor who had secured a large sale to one of their clients. The watch boasts a robust black PVD stainless steel case and is equipped with a high-performance automatic 24-jewel self-winding movement. We have made several upgrades to the original design, such as a shatter and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and increased water resistance rating.

Special Covert PVD Finish

The covert matt black non-reflective PVD finish used for this watch is often specified in military contracts for special forces units, anti-terrorist units, and various covert operations. Unlike painted finishes on lower-quality watches that can fade or rub off, this PVD process alters the steel's color at a molecular level, ensuring durability even during heavy usage. However, the PVD finish can be damaged if the case is badly gouged or worn down by continuous heavy abrasion against hard surfaces.

Historical and Technical Background

Inspired by the 1980 UK MOD specification for automatic diver's watches (DEF STAN 66-4 [Part 1] Issue 3), this model retains key design elements such as the unidirectional bezel and boldly marked dial with tritium paint. The original MOD specification also called for a mineral glass crystal, as documented in the MOD file shown in the final two images. While staying true to the spirit of the original, this updated version incorporates modern improvements, such as the use of non-radioactive paint and the inclusion of sapphire crystal, as detailed below.

Benefits of Sapphire Crystal

Many customers ask about the benefits of sapphire crystal over standard mineral crystal. Synthetic sapphire is extremely strong, shatter-resistant, and scratch-resistant, making it ideal for military and security personnel, police officers, and active outdoor enthusiasts. These groups account for over 70% of our customer base.

Our observations show that over 90% of incidents involving cracked watch crystals occur with mineral glass. Even hardened mineral crystals do not match the durability of sapphire. Sapphire crystals are strengthened through a heat treatment process that removes internal stresses and are then coated with two layers of anti-reflective coating. While sapphire crystals are more expensive, they offer superior longevity, resilience, and performance, justifying their use in higher-end watches.


These models represent excellent value and are competitively priced for such a high-performance automatic watch. This watch combines the historical design and functional integrity of its predecessors with modern upgrades to meet the needs of today's professionals and enthusiasts.

* While the original watches used tritium, these new versions use Luminova, with the encircled "T" retained for historical accuracy.

    Does not stain! Great body oil
    It’s soooo light weight and easy to apply, you don’t need tons of it to get a nice result. It’s not very oily nor greasy at all. It DOES NOT STAIN!!!! I love that, it moisturized my skin so well, it looks so pretty and natural but I’m going to mention that the scent is a little weird, not bad but like I was expecting to smell like vanilla but it’s not vanilla… it’s something else but is ok because it’s not strong or unpleasant.

    Smells so good and very moisturizing and not sticky
    It smells so good! It’s also pretty glittery and sparkly. I’m usually not a fan of using body oil because I don’t like the stickiness of it on my body, but this body oil is very good! I’ve been mixing this body oil with my regular non-scented lotion(cerave moisturizing cream) after I shower before bed. Though by the time I wake up the next morning, the scent is gone. It’s not necessarily a bad thing since the scent can be a little bit strong when first applied, but overall it’s not too overwhelming and it’s perfect! I really enjoy using this body oil gel!

    Teaaa Baby
    This shimmer gel oil is teaaaa on your body. It smells good when combined with a cologne of your choice. It’s non-greasy, moisturizes the skin good and of course gives you that glow on your body needs. You must buy this.

    I was DISAPPOINTED
    I was very excited to try this bc of the shimmer and glow and bc I’m a vanilla scent girly and I was disappointed bc it didn’t smell anything like vanilla However, I like the smooth body gel feel it wasn’t heavy and thick so that was a plus for me My bottle wasn’t wrapped or taped to prevent leaking bc when I removed it from the package I could tell something happened because there was no leaking in the bag it was just on the top where you squeeze it and almost 2 inches was gone from the bottle so I was disappointed bc the bottle is small anyways and for the price I want a full bottle bc normally when I order lotions or body creams they’re packaged with some extra care and this package wasn’t 😔

    Love this subtle shimmer rose bronze very moisturizing &thicker
    Beautiful color shimmer & sleek shine. Can be subtle or apply more to get a oil look. Smells a little bit like coconut which I don't love if Im wearing perfume. Its a beautiful bronzey pink subtle shimmer. Not glitter & reapply to be a oiled goddess. Works perfectly on my light-med skin tone. Definitely a great summer find. And it is moisturizing & a pretty sheen.
