Underwater Wednesday is all about diver’s watches, consistently one of the most popular watch categories for men. Every man should have at least one diver’s watch in his watch collection, whether to appear more sporty and adventurous in the office or for taking to the coast on the weekend. You need a watch you can comfortably immerse in water at a moment’s notice.
Wenger Seaforce Chronograph
Wenger, part of Victorinox, famous for their high quality Swiss Army knives, make solid, reliable watches at an affordable price. No environment is more demanding – or less forgiving – than the sea. Wenger Seaforce is equipped with a knurled, screw-down crown which protects the Swiss quartz movement up to 200m. This new chronograph from Wenger has a design on a par with its functions. It’s robust, reliable, and uncompromising. You can comfortably take the watch to 200-metres which is more than enough for swimming with dolphins in Miami and for the worst the weather can chuck at you in Manchester. The engraved rotating bezel is designed for easy grip while the luminescent hour-markers and hands guarantee visibility in the toughest conditions.
The chronograph counters will attest to its wearer’s exploits on land and at sea. And because action doesn’t exclude elegance, the 43mm Seaforce Chronograph comes with dial executions in black and blue, black and orange, and coral grey.
