1521 Militaire Blasted Bracelet

Introducing the latest Squale 1521 Militare, the much anticipated second reissued design following the first military iteration by Squale in 2015 known as the 1521 Originale Limited Edition. Now it comes without a date display and the Squale shark logo, this timepiece is the first of its 1521 collection to showcase a balanced minimalist look. With unconventional stripe instead of round dial markers, the Militare is a refreshing riff on the Originale.

At first glance, the 1521 Militare Blasted flaunts its quintessential Von Buren dive watch design with a 41mm case diameter and 48mm lug to lug dimension. However, upon close scrutiny, this exquisite timepiece features an extraordinary matte black dial. Its white hour hand and vivid orange minute hand offer a stark contrast against its black dial, allowing for greater legibility. Additionally, its markers and hands are painted with Super-LumiNova which gives off a bright green glow in the dark.

Kept slim at 12.5mm, its case is forged with 316L stainless-steel. This signature Squale case design has a fully bead-blasted matte finishing that reflects a sleek and tactical look of this timepiece. With a recessed crown located at its 4 o’clock position, this famed skin-diver case caters an impressive 500m water resistance which elevates its functionality high above other dive watches even till now.

Powered by the Sellita SW200-1 automatic calibre, operating at 28,800 bph (4 Hertz), this Swiss-made watch has a power reserve of 38 hours. Enjoy the smooth experience of its 120-click unidirectional dive bezel that allows for accurate and safe measurement of time elapsed especially underwater. Its matte black bezel insert now in a matching white tone along with the minute markers, all for a clearer indication with a harmonious look.

Protected by a hardy flat sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on its interior, this watch shows off satisfyingly symmetrical painted markers. The Militare sports a neat dial design that harks back to the good old military format, while accentuating great legibility at the same time. Through a clean dateless display, this timepiece displays more of the purist form as compared to the Originale.
