New old kids on the block, Aquadive, have announced their first three models: the NOS Vintage Diver, the Bathyscaphe 300 and the Bathyscaphe 100 DLC.

Very nice they are too.

Proving that globalisation is alive and kicking, the watches are designed in the USA, constructed in Switzerland with Swiss ETA movements and cases machined in Germany.

Due to see the light in 2012 this collection is partly made from AquaDive new old stock components (‘NOS’).

The NOS vintage diver case and crystal are AquaDive NOS. The movement and gaskets are new and Swiss made.

The 47mm stainless steel Bathyscaphe 300 is CNC machined off NOS Swiss Made blanks.

The crystal is an AR-coated sapphire, the bezel is ceramic and it features a helium-release valve. It is water resistant to 3,000 meters.

Movement is the Swiss automatic ETA caliber 2824-2 with 25 jewels, 28,800 vph and features Incabloc shock-protection. MSRP starts at $2,990.

This model is limited to 500 pieces.

The 100 DLC model is a 42mm stainless steel black DLC piece. The crystal is an AR-coated sapphire, the bezel is ceramic and it features a helium-release valve. It is water resistant to 1,000 meters.

Movement is the Swiss automatic ETA caliber 2836-2 with 25 jewels, 28,800 vph and features Incabloc shock-protection and an ETACHRON regulator. MSRP starts at $1,990.
