Affordability in a dive watch is something truly worthy of attention – especially when that dive watch performs well and looks great. Such is the case with the Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Dive “Blue Devil” watch. Water resistant to a massive 60 atm (600 meters), the watch features screw-down crowns for time adjustment and the internal rotating timing bezel, as well as a helium escape valve so that it can outperform its wearer. The bold Pontos S Diver features a blue dial, the best performing color in deep water. The yellow accent color is a top performing color for the various lighting conditions.
Taking its name from the territorial ocean creature, the southern blue devil fish, the Pontos S is built in a limited edition of just 100 individually numbered pieces, retailing for $2,950.
Each set includes three interchangeable straps: one genuine blue calfskin with yellow accent stitching, one black rubber strap with black stitching and textile finish on top and one stainless steel bracelet.
