The Prized Possession of Men: Watches

Krishnan Nair and Sons give a glimpse of the world’s largest luxury watch brands that have left a lasting impression among the generations and have always being strapped to the blue-blooded wrists!

KNS says” Luxury keeping up with time and that’s your prized possession : Your Watches”

The dive watch is a classy watch style that has been around since the 1950s, and you don’t need to be a deep-sea diver to don one. These watches are mostly chunky and bold — in part for aesthetics, and in part for their desire to withstand the high pressures with traveling well down the water’s surface.                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

From an aesthetic viewpoint, a dive watch is easy to trace. An adjusting bezel — specifically external — is crucial. There’s typically a 60-minute ring that can be employed to fix time for everything from how long you are underwater, precisely down to how long you have been waiting for a taxi. Its markers and hands are big, easy to read, and have a little sort of luminous material applied to them. A little farther than what they can do underwater, they are highly durable and an exceedingly casual timepiece to tie with  fairly about anything in your wardrobe.

Now, before we leap too far ahead of ourselves, there’s one idea we need to cover: depth rating.Some of these watches sites they can go 100 meters below the surface, and others are rated for their capability to exceed 1,000 meters. Till now, the deepest any scuba diver has ever been is a little exceedingly than 300 meters, so we wouldn’t leave too much importance on ratings above that, unless you decide on strapping your watch to the exteriors of a submarine. Generally speaking, 100 meters can handle your average swimming and snorkeling needs, and 200-plus is a safe bet for recreational diving.

Now that you know more about dive watches, see our favorite picks below.

Priced well below the average, the Casio DW5600-1V is not only a remake of the company’s iconic first-ever G-Shock, but remarkably a highly capable diving timepiece. The watch is water-resistant to 200 meters. As desired from a G-Shock, it also shows excellent backlighting.

The digital movement of the rugged watch has a variety of handy and essential timekeeping features, constituting an alarm, a countdown timer, and a stopwatch, among many others.

This Citizen Promaster variant is a great entry-level dive watch. It has a stellar design, a tough 44-millimeter stainless steel case that is water-resistant to 200 meters, and the company’s light-powered, signature Eco-Drive movement. Of course, for being a diving instrument, the timepiece has oversized hands and dial indexes with excellent luminescence.

A comfy polyurethane strap and a robust warranty make this.  Citizen Promaster an incredible pick in its price range. Rather impressively, the retail packaging of the watch is shaped like an oxygen tank for scuba diving, leaving no room for you to doubt its capabilities.

When it arrives to automatic dive watches at a reasonable price point, Seiko is handily among the industry leaders. This Prospex model has a 44-millimeter case with a timeless design, as well as an attention-commanding orange dial with stand-out hands and markings. It’s mostly referred to in the watch collector community as the Orange Samurai (other color combinations are also available).

The rigid automatic movement of the timepiece has a date complication and a power reserve of 41 hours. The watch comes with a rigid metal bracelet.

The Victorinox Swiss Army I.N.O.X. Professional Diver watch is mostly tougher than any other watch on this list. Its large titanium case (45 millimeters in diameter) has been maintained to strike through 130 endurance tests, which involve the watch being run over by an actual tank. The timepiece is water-resistant to 200 meters.

The watch is energised by a high-quality quartz movement with a date complication. Its dial is available in several colors, but this variant with stellar marking and striped seconds hand is handily all favorite.

In a manner suiting a pricier product, the I.N.O.X. Professional Diver comes assembled in a rugged box that’s full of handy accessories, including a rubber strap, a paracord strap, and a removable magnifying glass.                        

The Zodiac Super Sea Wolf 68 Saturation diving watch is a nod to the Swiss manufacturer’s timepieces from decades ago. It has an oversized stainless steel case (it measures 50 millimeters in diameter) that’s water-resistant to an eye-popping 1,000 meters (100 ATM or 3,280 feet).

Like all diving watches by Zodiac, the Super Sea Wolf 68 Saturation is powered by a reliable automatic movement with a date complication.

The timepiece is comfortable to wear in spite of its massive case, thanks to a high-quality, awesome mesh bracelet. In case you find this Super Sea Wolf 68 Saturation type too classy, regard this orange-clad variant instead.                       

The Breitling Avenger II GMT watch is an enticing choice for divers who are regular travelers. The timepiece will permit them to have an eye on different time zones through a dedicated complication (hence its GMT name). The Swiss timepiece is water-proof to 300 meters. It appears on a tough rubber strap that’s apt for scuba diving.Alike to all mechanical watches by Breitling, the Avenger II GMT assembles an automatic movement that’s a certified chronometer. We adore that the second time-zone hand owns a red finish for superior readability.                

Is your budget flexible enough? Then the Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days by Officine Panerai is the dive watch for you. The carefully crafted timepiece leaves homage to watches worn by military divers more than 50 years ago. Like most Panerai watches, this one has the brand’s signature crown guard — a feature that’s supreme and awesome in equal measure.

In a league accustoming its name and price tag, the Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days is energised by top-grade mechanical movement with a 3-day power reserve. The 47-millimeter case of the watch is huge— but since it is constructed from titanium, it is extremely lightweight.

The retail package of the watch is undoubtedly impressive, too. It constitutes a rubber strap, a superb-quality leather strap, and a tool for updating them, all clubbed inside a beautiful presentation box.
