Squale Master Titanium 120 ATM 65th Anniversary Watch #MASTIBKBK.TI20
The Master collection was born in 1959 with the aim of being the collection with the highest technical content of the Squale brand in terms of pressure resistance; in the 60's it already boasted a pressure resistance of up to 100 ATM. On the occasion of Squale's 65th anniversary, we have introduced a new Squale Master model in Titanium, resisting up to 120 ATM and destined to remain in the collection for a long time.
The Squale Master is the first Squale timepiece to be made entirely of Grade 5 Titanium. This material allows for the creation of an extremely light watch, unlike 316L steel, without affecting the technical characteristics of the watch. Thanks to the 4 mm thick sapphire crystal and the Helium Escape Valve, it was possible to create a product capable of resisting up to 120 ATM. The Master model features Super-LumiNova Old Radium on the bezel, dial and hands, giving it a similar look to the first Squale Master models from the 1960's, when the luminescence was provided by Tritium. The bezel is done in brushed ceramic, and all the numbering is in Super-LumiNova, to allow for perfect readability underwater.
The dial is one of a kind: it is in fact built on three levels. The first level consists of a disk entirely in Super-LumiNova Old Radium, to which a second perforated dial is applied. This technique is called "Sandwich Dial" and allows you to optimize the luminescence in the indices. The third and final level consists of the applied indices that outline the holes of the dial, with a brushed finish to match the hands and case.
The bracelet from the Titanium Master is made entirely of Grade 5 Titanium as well, and is the first bracelet designed for the "Von Büren Case" or Squale's iconic design. Inspired by one of the bracelets made in the 1960's, the Squale Master bracelet guarantees maximum comfort to the wearer. The bracelet adjustment system, defined as the "Bushing Pin System", allows you to adjust the length by removing each link, fitting the wearer perfectly. The buckle, also made of Titanium, has been upgraded from the previous version to include a tool-less micro-adjust more fitting of a professional dive watch. A 20mm black rubber strap is also included as a bonus.
