50 ATMOS Militare Opaco Matte

Introducing the latest Squale 50 Atmos Militare Opaco Matte, the much anticipated second reissued design following the first military iteration by Squale in 2015 known as the 50 Atmos Originale Limited Edition. Now it comes without a date display and the Squale shark logo, this timepiece is the first of its 50 Atmos collection to showcase a balanced minimalist look. With unconventional stripe instead of round dial markers, the Militare is a refreshing riff on the Originale.

At first glance, the Militare Opaco Matte flaunts its quintessential Von Buren dive watch design with a 41mm case diameter and 48mm lug to lug dimension. However, upon close scrutiny, this exquisite timepiece features an extraordinary matte black dial. Its white hour hand and vivid orange minute hand offer a stark contrast against its black dial, allowing for greater legibility. Additionally, its markers and hands are painted with Super-LumiNova which gives off a bright green glow in the dark.

Kept slim at 12.5mm, the Militare’s case is forged with 316L stainless-steel. This signature Squale case has a sand-blasted finishing which draws inspiration from this Swiss brand’s dive watch design back in the 60s. With a recessed crown located at its 4 o'clock position, this famed skindiver case caters an impressive 500m water resistance that elevates its functionality high above other dive watches. 

The signature case design synonymous with Squale

Powered by the ETA2824-2/SW200 automatic calibre, operating at 28,800 bph (4 Hertz), this Swiss-made watch has a power reserve of 38 hours. Enjoy the smooth experience of its 60-click unidirectional dive bezel that allows for accurate and safe measurement of time elapsed especially underwater. Its matte black bezel also has a pearl luminous green lume pip for clear indication of the zero marking.

Featuring satisfyingly symmetrical painted markers, the Militare sports a neat dial design that harks back to the good old military format, while accentuating great legibility at the same time. Through a clean dateless display, this timepiece displays more of the “purist” form as compared to the Originale. Protected with a hardy flat sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the interior coupled with a matte casing finishing, the Militare brings legibility to unprecedented levels.

This Swiss-made timepiece is complemented with a 20mm Italian tan leather strap. Handmade for comfortable fit on all wrist sizes, this genuine calf leather strap is fitted with a stainless-steel buckle. With its end stitches tied by hand using a thick waxed linen thread, the raw edges of the strap develop a patina over time, gracing the leather with a soft sheen that is unique to each user. 

A classic dive watch with a matte twist, this vintage timepiece celebrates the 60s and boasts a flawless design that never goes out of style. Looking for a military-style tactical watch? With a sleek military look and an excellent value for money, the 50 Atmos Militare Opaco Matte is the watch for you!
