FORMEX (CH) Baby Reef 39.50mm “White” Automatic COSC Chronomètre 300m Sport Diver Watch – On Strap or Bracelet

> IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP <

Movement: Swiss Made Sellita SW300-1 (self-winding) Automatic (Chronometer grade), officially certified by COSC. 25 jewels. Date display. Custom-built skeleton rotor with thermally blued screws. 56 hours power reserve. An Automatic, also called self-winding watch, is a mechanical watch in which the mainspring is wound automatically as a result of the natural motion of the wearer’s arm, to provide energy to run the watch, making manual winding unnecessary. All Formex automatic movements are manufactured in Switzerland.

Dial: These wonderful dials are manufactured at Formex’s in-house dial manufacture in the Jura mountains. For the white dial, the initial application of white lacquer on a mirror-polished surface is followed by the layering of seven coats of transparent lacquer, which are subsequently polished down to achieve a uniquely deep aspect of this dial. The REEF’s bold rehaut-style hour markers are also hand-applied and triangle shaped, pointing towards the broad hour and minute hands that share the same detailed beveled mirror polish and brushed top surface finishing. Hands and hour markers as well as a capsule on the bezel’s zero marker are deep-filled with Swiss Super-LumiNova® BGW9 that emits a long-lasting blue glow in dark conditions. Being able to read the time with absolute certainty is a matter of survival when diving.

Bezel: Being one of the most exposed parts, the unidirectional rotatable interchangeable bezel is made of an extremely hard and scratch-resistant Zirconium oxide ceramic. The graduations and numbers are engraved by femto-laser pulsations. Each bezel takes 60 minutes of precision engraving to achieve its three-dimensional effect. Machined gear-like indentations on the bezel’s edge allow a diver the ideal grip to safely set and monitor diving time and decompression stops. The 120 click action is responsive and smooth, yet offers firm and precise function of the bezel. Besides that, the bezel can be changed without the use of any tools.

Straps & Clasps: Both the solid-link bracelet and the rubber strap feature a buckle with a patented fine-adjustment system as well as a completely re-engineered and patented quick release system that allows to swap straps without the use of any tools. This listing gives you the choice between a steel bracelet, 2-piece rubber strap or 1-piece NATO strap. If you would like a grey NATO instead (or any other colour we have in stock), feel free to choose from our Localtime Premium Seatbelt NATOs here and make a note for us in your order, to exchange it. If you would like a different strap, let us know, we have many in stock both from Formex and many other companies. Lug width: 22mm.

Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflection treatment

Water Resistance: 300m/1,000ft

> DEMONSTRATION: FINE-ADJUSTMENT DEPLOYMENT CARBON CLASP:  If ordering your Formex watch on leather or rubber, your strap will come on Formex’s new deployment clasp with a patented fine-adjustment.

Lightweight, smooth to the touch, ultra-durable and highly functional, this clasp is a real piece of engineering, making your watch even more comfortable to wear.
