Reef 39.5mm Bahama Blue Watch

The Watch

Swiss-born watchmaker Formex builds timepieces engineered for every condition and built to last. Defined by meticulous attention to detail, cutting-edge materials, and timeless design, every Formex watch delivers the best in horology. Pushing the boundaries of innovation, these watches become everyday essentials you can rely on - whatever the occasion. The brand's Reef collection presents the 39.5mm Bahama Blue watch, a model that delivers on both quality and performance. Versatile in style and showcasing a summery color, it's the ideal choice for men who value distinction and effortless timekeeping. Compact yet rugged, it's ready for any adventure while offering an extraordinary watch-wearing experience. Its timeless case is crafted from Grade 2 titanium and 316L stainless steel, underscoring its durability. The round case measures 39.50mm in diameter, 45.50mm lug-to-lug, and 11mm thick - a refined presence on the wrist perfectly suited to discerning men. The case is enhanced by polished bevels and a vertical brushed finish. The crown functions are adjusted via the partially protected, screw-down crown at 3 o'clock, its knurled grip ensuring easy handling. For added functionality, a unidirectional 120-click dive bezel with a knurled profile features a highly resistant zirconium oxide ceramic blue insert marked in minutes, with the first 15 detailed individually and the remainder in 5-minute increments. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating sits above the dial, protecting the movement from shocks and scratches while ensuring optimal visibility from every angle. Finally, the screw-down caseback - laser-engraved and stamped - guarantees water resistance to 30 ATM / 300 meters.

The Dial

The round dial is designed for easy, at-a-glance timekeeping. Brought to life with blue lacquer, a hand-applied sunray finish crafted in the Jura, and seven layers of clear lacquer, it features a railroad minute track with black graduations around the rim for precise minute reading. Triangular metal indexes filled with black resin mark the hours and are pointed to by matching baton hands at the center. The short hand reads the hours, the long hand the minutes, and the slender hand the seconds - all coated, along with the indexes, in SuperLuminova BGW9 for reliable legibility even in low light. A date window partially replaces the 6 o'clock index for added precision. As a signature touch, the brand places its logo and name beneath the double index at 12 o'clock, alongside the inscriptions "Reef", "Chronometer", "300M" and "Swiss Made" at 6 o'clock in black lettering.

The Movement

This timepiece runs on an automatic movement that winds itself with the natural motion of your wrist. High-performance and reliable, it features the premium Swiss-made Sellita caliber SW300-1 - boasting 25 jewels, a frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz), and a solid 56-hour power reserve. COSC-certified and fitted with a Glucydur balance wheel for antimagnetic protection, it features a skeletonized, personalized rotor and delivers precise, reliable display of hours, minutes, seconds, and date.

The Strap

To help you find the style that suits you best, this stunning watch comes with a choice of two straps. Comfortable and enhancing the watch's elegant profile, both make a statement on the wrist and pair beautifully with any look. They measure 22mm wide at the lug and are secured by a push-button deployment clasp. Formex's patented micro-adjustment system lets you fine-tune the fit to your exact wrist size.

The first strap is crafted from stainless steel with a vertical brushed finish to perfectly complement the case. Featuring three rows of screwed links, it conforms beautifully to the wrist and adds an extra layer of refinement to the watch. It pairs flawlessly with any polished, dressed-up look.

The second strap is crafted from rubber with a striking textured finish. Black and supremely flexible, it's the perfect companion for any physical activity - and its versatile black tone pairs effortlessly with any outfit or accessory. The clasp is made from carbon fiber composite for exceptional durability.

Water Resistance

With water resistance to 30 atmospheres - equivalent to 300 meters - our watch specialists can't wait to send you off on your next aquatic adventure. Fully waterproof, this model is ready for anything: showers, baths, swimming, freediving, or scuba diving. However, to preserve the watch's long-term water resistance, our watchmakers recommend avoiding any operation of the pushers or crown while submerged.
