GBOGH Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Bezel looks more like from their root beer model, but gilt dial is decent. Really looks like they just took a bunch of parts from their current models to make an attempt at a BB homage. 20 ATMOS Heritage - 1545 - SEL Bracelet Maker: Squale Movement: Swiss automatic movement ETA 2824-2 Dial: Matte Vintage Off-Black. Gold markers. Non-shiny luminous surround. Luminous: SuperLuminova Date: 3 O'clock Case: 316L Stainless Steel. Polished. Crown: Screwdown crown at 3 O'clock Lug: 20mm Crystal: Flat sapphire crystal with 2.5 times date magnification Strap: 20mm Squale signed steel bracelet with diver extension with screw links Water resistance: 20ATMOS/200m Dimensions: 40mm in diameter, 44.5mm including crown, 12.1mm thick Power Reserve: ~42 hours The Squale 20 ATMOS Ref. 1545 Heritage watch is Made in Switzerland and powered by a Swiss Made ETA 2824-2 automatic movement. This is a remake of the vintage divers with a matte(non-shiny) off-black dial. Tastefully done for that ultimate nostalgia. It is named maxi due to the enlarged index markers. The Squale 20 ATMOS has a uni-directional 60 click bezel. The screwdown crown is located at 3 O'clock. The vintaged dial with off-white index and C3 SuperLuminova luminous is designed with easy time reading in mind. Classic diver design that will not go out of style. The matte off-black dial with gold index markers and gold logos coupled with the non-shiny surround index and maxi indices gives this watch a nostalgic feel. Only for the vintage dive watch lovers. The Squale 20 ATMOS comes with a metal bracelet with solid end-links and screw-in links. The watch comes with a leather box. Squale watches come with a 2 years Squale international warranty. Gnomon Price: US$ 420 Some real life pics posted on WUS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Thanks GB now I want that one along with the other 3-5 had in my sights. All kidding aside really like that piece just to small at 40 for me 42-44 would have been hitting the PP acct already! Sharp though really sharp and priced fairly IMHO.

TeeJay Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Hmmm, without the snowflake hands, it doesn't have quite the same feel as the Black Bay... But to each his own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgtguk Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Not keen on this one I'm afraid, as TJ said without the snowflake hands it's just not the same look, plus something about that dial that just doesn't do it for me, unbalanced ?

jonsydney Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 The watch is nice enough but simply can't get over the "Squale" name lol. It's terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
