Description: This listing is for a brand new, never-worn Benthos 500 diver chronograph. For over fifty years, the Aquastar Benthos 500 chronograph has been among the most collectible dive watches ever made — and now the legend can be yours. Highly capable and incredibly robust, the watch boasts a brand new calibre from storied Swiss movement manufacturer La Joux-Perret, giving it the centrally-mounted chronograph function that true divers treasure above all others. This particular watch has never been worn, and as such the bracelet has not been sized and contains all links. The technical specifications are as follows: - Case Material: 316L stainless steel - Dimensions: 42mm diameter, 47mm lug-to-lug, 22mm lug width, 15mm height - Movement: Aquastar Calibre 1MPS. Swiss-made, top grade, 60-hour power reserve - Functions: hours, minutes, seconds, center-minute chronograph - Water Resistance: 200 meters, 660 feet - Crystal: Flat, triple-coated AR sapphire - Dial: Semi-gloss black, applied hour markers with high-density SuperLuminova filling - Bezel: Unidirectional 120-click ceramic bezel with SuperLuminova filling - Straps/bracelet: Genuine 22mm ISOfrane rubber strap, 22mm Synchron NATO strap, and 22mm StrapCode Miltat “Hexad” 316L stainless steel bracelet Also includes the autographed Jason Heaton novel “Depth Charge” that was given to the first 150 people who purchased the watch from Aquastar. In closing, this is an excellent watch that will be your faithful companion for decades to come. I’m only selling it due to an unexpected financial situation, so my loss is your gain! Good luck!
