Carl F. Bucherer Patravi ScubaTec for Only Watch 2019

Carl F. Bucherer Patravi ScubaTec for Only Watch 2019

As a watchmaker, Carl F. Bucherer is aware of how precious every second is. In this spirit the manufacturer created a one-of-a-kind Patravi ScubaTec timepiece in 18-carat white gold exclusively for the Only Watch 2019 auction.
 
The Patravi ScubaTec Only Watch 2019 is a diver’s watch par excellence. The sophisticated 44.6 mm case in 18-carat white gold emphasizes the eye-catching design of the watch. Super-LumiNova makes indices, hands and arrow markers on the bezel glow in a light blue hue, assuring maximum readability under low lighting conditions. The dive time can be easily set with the unidirectional rotating bezel – one of the watch’s safety features, alongside the automatic helium release valve. The DLC-coated case back shows a detailed engraving of the magnificent creatures that inspired the timepiece: the manta rays. 

 

Perfect timing is assured by the COSC certified CFB 1950.1 caliber automatic movement with a power reserve of 38 hours. With a water resistance of 50 bar (500 m) and a rubber strap with an integrated diving extension on the adjustable diver’s clasp, the Patravi ScubaTec Only Watch 2019 is the perfect companion on land and for exploring the fascinating underwater world.
