Nautic 3 Scaphandrier 670098 Watch

The Watch

Founded in 1867, Lip is a French watchmaker renowned for its elegant, high-quality timepieces. Each watch combines exceptional technical refinement with a bold, distinctive design that embodies the brand's values. Proud to hold the title of Official Watchmaker of the French National Federation of Firefighters, Lip invites you to discover the Nautic 3 Scaphandrier 670098. This robust diving watch was designed as a tribute to the Autonomous Light Diver function. Its combination of colors and features makes it a one-of-a-kind timepiece for rescue divers. Offered as a special edition, it features a round case crafted in satin-finished and chamfer-polished 316L stainless steel. The case measures 39.00 mm in diameter and 13.20 mm in thickness, designed to complement men's wrists. It is fitted with a bezel featuring a black insert in a notched style for easy grip. Marked with a minute railroad track and a round luminescent insert, this unidirectional bezel with metal clicks allows you to measure underwater immersion time. The dial is protected by a domed sapphire crystal of 3.00 mm, shielding it from external damage. Its anti-reflective coating ensures optimal readability of all central indicators, which are adjusted via the notched, screw-down crown at 3 o'clock for easy handling. Finally, the transparent, screw-down caseback is fitted with a sapphire crystal that reveals the movement inside. Engraved with the inscription "Scaphandrier", it guarantees a water resistance of 20 ATM.

The Dial

Clean, charming, and utterly captivating - you'll love this dial. Its understated style and unique personality speak for themselves. With a matte black logotyped "Scaphandrier" tone, it is peppered with colorful details for a striking effect. Arabic numeral and baton indexes sit alongside a white minute railroad track running along the perimeter. They frame two large sword-style hands with orange tips marking the hours and minutes. A slender lollipop seconds hand completes the display. All time indicators feature a highly powerful luminescent treatment for legibility even in the dark. At 3 o'clock, a white date window displays the date. The brand name sits at 12 o'clock, with the watch name recalled at 6 o'clock.

The Movement

This timepiece is powered by a Franco-Swiss automatic movement. It features the HD G100 caliber from Lajoux-Perret, assembled in Besançon. A high-performance mechanism, it measures 11"½ in size, 25.6 mm in diameter, and 4.45 mm in thickness. It boasts a finely finished movement with blued screws, diamond beveling, and Côtes de Genève decoration. Equipped with 24 jewels, it beats at a frequency of 28,800 vph and offers a power reserve of 68 hours.

The Bracelet

Lip fitted this model with a "tropic" rubber strap in perfect harmony with the dial's orange accents. Draped in a striking orange hue, it features a perforated finish that adds to its charm. Its ribbed texture gives the watch a distinctive character all its own. The lug width measures 20.00 mm.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 20 atmospheres, or 200 meters. Ladies and gentlemen, this is a watch built to keep up with your deep-water adventures! Designed for freediving, it handles everything from high-pressure cleaners to showers, baths, lap swimming, and breath-hold dives - all without breaking a sweat. That said, for scuba diving with tanks, we recommend a timepiece with a higher water resistance rating. Also, avoid operating the crown or pushers while submerged to protect the movement's integrity.
