Yellow Skindiver 22-SA-009 Automatic Watch

The Watch

The Skindiver watch we present here is a perfect example of the blend between modern style and sophisticated watchmaking technology. With a 316L stainless steel case measuring 40 mm in diameter, this watch delivers both robustness and longevity. The slightly satin matte finish gives it an elegant, understated look that catches the light subtly in any setting. The case diameter, combined with a 13 mm thickness, ensures optimal wrist comfort, perfectly suited to men's wrists. The superior-quality domed sapphire crystal protects the dial with unmatched resistance against everyday elements and the demands of an active lifestyle. Renowned for its extreme hardness, the sapphire crystal features an anti-reflective coating that enhances legibility. The carefully screwed case back guarantees exemplary water resistance up to 15 ATM - an essential feature for water sports enthusiasts or anyone who values durability.

The Dial

The bright yellow dial is the beating heart of this watch, designed to captivate every eye that falls upon it. The Arabic numerals feature a luminescent coating for perfect legibility even in the darkest environments. The hands, also coated with SuperLuminova, glide smoothly along the minute track, creating a dynamic and functional watch face. Positioned at the outer edge, the minute track adds a dimension of precision to the watch, enabling an exact reading of every passing minute. The clever arrangement of indices and numerals contrasts beautifully with the yellow background, remaining both functional and visually striking. The whole ensemble, protected by a domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment, showcases its beauty while offering resistance to scratches and shocks. A hacking seconds mechanism allows for perfectly precise time-setting - a detail appreciated by purists in pursuit of accuracy.

The Movement

Powering this bold timepiece is a Japanese automatic movement, the Miyota 8315 - a benchmark of quality and reliability. This caliber is renowned for its robustness and precision, delivering an impressive 60-hour power reserve. Operating at a frequency of 21,600 A/h, this movement gives the hands a fluid, natural sweep, further enhanced by the hacking seconds feature - a detail that never fails to win over true watch enthusiasts. The automatic movement means no manual winding is required as long as the watch is worn regularly.

The Strap

This timepiece offers a choice between two straps, selectable via the dropdown menu: the yellow rubber Tropic strap or the stainless steel rice-grain bracelet. The rubber version delivers a bold, sporty aesthetic, while the brushed stainless steel link bracelet offers enhanced durability and exceptional comfort. Fit is optimized with a 20 mm lug width and a 16 mm buckle width. The clasp type depends on the chosen model: a pin buckle equips the rubber strap, while a deployment clasp secures the steel version, ensuring a stable and secure fit on the wrist.

Water Resistance

When it comes to water resistance, this watch delivers without compromise. Built to last, it offers water resistance up to 15 ATM, making it suitable for swimming and water sports, as well as occasional submersion. The unidirectional aluminum bezel, paired with a screw-down crown, maximizes the watch's resistance in wet environments and during dive sessions.
