Auricoste Spirotechnique 300M Black DLC Index Dial Steel, NATO and Tropic Bracelet Watch Set A9212

The Watch
French watchmaker Auricoste presents the Spirotechnique 300M A9112. This timepiece is the perfect companion for your underwater adventures, boasting exceptional water resistance. The brand has served the French Navy as its official watchmaker since 1854. Their models meet the demanding standards set by the Ministry of Defense - reliability and precision are non-negotiable. The case is crafted from 316L stainless steel, measuring 42mm in diameter and 13.30mm thick. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal sits on top. The screw-down caseback enhances water resistance, as does the screw-down crown, positioned at 4 o'clock.

The Dial
This model features a visually clean dial. Round in shape, its Super Mat Black finish delivers a deep, matte black. The white hand indicates the hours, the yellow arrow-shaped hand marks the minutes, and the slender seconds hand - also known as the sweep hand - completes the trio. A combination of stick indices and Arabic numerals ensures precise timekeeping. A fine minute railroad track runs along the dial's outer edge. Both the indices and hands are coated with SuperLuminova Blue Line BG W9 luminescent material for enhanced visibility in low-light conditions. A date window is positioned at 4 o'clock at an angle. The brand name appears at 12 o'clock.

The Movement
This Swiss automatic movement powers the timepiece. Running on caliber 2824-2, it features 25 jewels. The oscillation frequency is 28,800 vph with a 38-hour power reserve. Hours, minutes, seconds, and date functions are all displayed.

The Bracelet
The featured model comes on a black stainless steel bracelet. Since it is delivered in a gift set, you will also find a NATO strap and a black rubber strap. The steel bracelet fastens with a simple deployment clasp. The other two straps both close with a pin buckle. All three straps are designed to accompany you on your diving expeditions. The lug width is 20mm.

Water Resistance
With a water resistance of 300 meters - 30 ATM in watchmaking terms - Captain Nemo himself would envy this timepiece built for the deep. Bathing, showering, swimming, or diving (freediving or scuba) won't faze it one bit. Our watchmaking experts at Ocarat do ask two things of you:
Do not operate the pushers or crown while submerged.
Send us the best photo of an exotic fish you spot in the depths - watch included if possible. It would look great on our walls and on our Instagram page!
