Diver Automatic Watch F20531/2

The Watch

Founded in Switzerland in 1902, Festina is now based in Spain. Celebrated for its on-trend watches at accessible prices, the Maison presents its latest horological creation: the F20531/2 watch from the Diver Automatic collection. It sits in a round silver stainless steel case with a 44 mm diameter - an ideal fit for men's wrists. A unidirectional green bezel frames the black dial. At its heart, the hours and minutes are tracked by two silver arrow hands sweeping over baton indexes and a railroad minute track around the perimeter. They are joined by a slim red seconds hand that stands out with its bold color. Like all the other time indicators, it features a luminescent coating for comfortable reading day and night. At 3 o'clock, the date scrolls through a square date window. The dial and its multiple timekeeping indicators are shielded from the outside world by a solid sapphire crystal. They are accessible via the screwed crown on the right side of the case, allowing you to wind your automatic watch. As a diver's watch, its screwed case back delivers optimal water resistance up to 20 atmospheres.

The Dial

To elevate your wrist with a style that's both classic and elegant, the watch features a round dial with a rich, intense black background. Its sunray finish showcases a brilliant analog time display. At the center, two arrow hands sweep through the hours and minutes via white baton indexes and a white railroad minute track. The seconds are shown by a slim seconds hand in a gorgeous red. At the 3 o'clock index, a discreet date window displays the date in black on white. Every time indicator features the same luminescent treatment to remain legible even in the depths of the ocean. Finally, Maison Festina signs its creation with its name and logo below 12 o'clock, noting the automatic movement, water resistance, and crystal type in the lower portion of the dial.

The Movement

As its name suggests, the Diver Automatic F20531/2 watch runs on an automatic movement. Of Japanese manufacture, its Miyota M8215 caliber brings the three hour, minute, and seconds hands to life - along with the date window - with outstanding precision over a 36-hour power reserve.

The Bracelet

Sturdy and elegant, the bracelet supporting this watch's case is crafted from silver stainless steel. Its three rows of links feature a brushed and polished finish, giving it a look that's both classic and sporty. Fitted with a deployment clasp and a 22 mm lug width, it hugs the curves of your wrist in everyday comfort.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 20 atmospheres, or 200 meters. Ladies and gentlemen, here's a watch ready to take on deep-water activities! This model is designed for freediving. Not afraid of water, you can also use high-pressure washers while wearing this timepiece without a second thought. Showering, bathing, competitive swimming, and freediving are all fair game. However, for scuba diving with tanks, we recommend a timepiece with a higher water resistance rating. Also be sure not to operate the crown or pushers while submerged, to protect the integrity of the mechanism.
