GRAHAM – PRODIVE Black and Gold Limited Edition














GRAHAMPRODIVE Black and Gold Limited Edition NEW

CROWNED DIVER’S WATCH 
Limited Edition

GRAHAM continues to bring high-end watch making to explore the ocean depths. The Anglo-Swiss brand launches a true luxury diver’s watch with its Prodive model. The professional expertise and high-technology of the Prodive collection have been put at the service of a rare beauty, like those we can sometimes find in great depths. 
























The Prodive is equipped for the first time with a patented start/stop/reset mechanism which allows the watch to be used to the limits that the human being can dive to. Each watch is tested to resist and go beyond 2000 feet. But how foolish it would be to go that deep with a massive gold (18K) watch. You’d be better off going to a chic evening to show-off your stylish diving instrument !

GRAHAM has developed a brand new diving mono-pusher chronograph, Prodive, which will give life to your nights and make you perfectly amphibian in any cocktail party.

The lever, famously GRAHAM and patented system, is undoubtedly the best system to activate the chronograph without fail. Placed on the left side of the case, the trigger has been completely re-engineered to become the only control pusher of the chronograph start/stop and reset. Made of gold (18K), it is easy to use and activate the functions.

Equipped with an automatic helium valve, a gold (18K) crown with an automatic locking system (bayonet) and a red safety ring which indicates the crown unlocking, this mono-pusher chronograph is just as dependable at 2000 feet as under a long relaxing shower!

It will prevent you diving into troubled waters thanks to a new generation of luminescent coatings, totally free of radiation. Two colours of luminescent indications are displayed and will be perfectly visible in great depths. The watch is perfectly readable from 25 cm in murky conditions. The unidirectional rotating bezel is adorned with a special pattern to ensure a better grip in addition to a 120-position notched wheel.

Pressure, water, temperature change resistant, functional and fully readable in the dark, a sophisticated design. The GRAHAM watch is free of electronics and depends on absolutely reliable mechanical timekeeping. The Prodive is the reference luxury diving watch.

The 2 dials of the Nouvelle Octa Lune are in 18K Gold. The first dial, off center, with embossed hour numbers surfaced with a diamond tool has been enlarged for a better reading of the time.
