Case

Retro Inspired

For a faithful recreation, Deep Blue Revival embraces the humble 39mm dimension of the original. This moderate size at once feels retro and sizeable on the wrist while exerting a surprising level of wearability. It is 13.24mm thick and features a classic round shape that delivers an appealing vintage aesthetic. It further nods to the past with a closed caseback decorated with the chemical engraving and the use of box crystal atop the dial.

In addition to these nostalgia-borne details, the Deep Blue Revival is well-balanced with considered evolutions. It adapts modern functionality by expanding water resistance to 300 meters in lieu of the original’s 200. Furthermore, the fine polished finish on the stainless steel case juxtaposed with the brushed, beveled edges of the tapered lugs certainly gives the watch a contemporary character.

Dial

Instantly Recognizable

The dial brings back the design of the 1964 Deep Blue in all its purity. The interesting placement of the brand logo and the Deep Blue name at nine and two o’clock positions is a remarkable throwback to the original, as are the extra-long quarter hour indexes. Together, these details make the dial of the Deep Blue Revival truly recognisable. An overall neat aesthetic is maintained with the subtle addition of the date aperture between four and five. Meanwhile, the brushed texture on the gray surface endows the dial with a sense of depth and visual distinction.

Bezel

Underwater Ready

The Deep Blue Revival holds the principles of a classic dive watch close with its brilliantly crafted unidirectional bezel. It carries a unique two-part construction and time-honored aesthetics drawn from the lineage of the 1964 Deep Blue. It features a steel ring with a coin edge pattern and a sapphire insert upon which is a neatly diving countdown scale. A lume-filled marker sits at 12 o’clock for enhanced legibility and overall functionality, completing the dive watch trope with the signature vintage flavor.

Bracelet

A Vintage Five-Link Bracelet

The Deep Blue Revival features a vintage-inspired five-link bracelet built to exacting standards in stainless steel. Its meticulous construction is in the service of a better fit and high level of detailing. It is attuned to prioritize comfort and comes with a well-crafted butterfly clasp, precisely replicated from the original Deep Blue.

Movement

Superior Driving Force

Designed and manufactured with high Swiss craftsmanship, FLD01 is a self-winding caliber. A testament to unrivaled accuracy and reliability, the movement is equipped with a date complication. It features a power reserve of 68 hours and delivers exceptional precision, beating at a 4Hz frequency.

Lume

Visibility Under All Conditions

The hands, indexes, and 12 o'clock marker on the diving bezel have a radium-like lume that offers a vintage look to the watch and a highly effective glow in the dark.
