Dive & Tool

A Singapore-made tool field watch with dual screw-down crowns, 200m water resistance, and a legible military dial that maps directly onto the client's Formex Field appreciation. The internal rotating compass bezel adds functional depth, and the Sellita SW200-1 is a serious workhorse movement — delivering genuine field-watch credibility at a compelling value point.

A retro-code French microbrand diver that obsesses over dial texture and legibility — the glossy blue sunray finish echoes the ice-blue Manhattan dial love, while the upgraded Maxi Dial with applied 3D markers delivers the dial-forward visual richness the client clearly seeks. Slim at 12.9mm and refined in finish, it feels premium beyond its footprint.

A compact, purpose-built 1,000m-rated Swiss diver with a rich vintage pedigree and an expressive, character-laden dial — mirrors the tool-watch seriousness of the C60 Clipper GMT and the ice-blue dial appreciation seen in the Manhattan. The cushion case and Art Deco index style give it standout personality without shouting.

The max bill Automatic is the archetype of the slim, dial-forward sports-dress watch. At just 6.9mm, it undercuts even the Maen Manhattan in wrist profile, while the bold graphic dial language mirrors the expressive, no-clutter approach seen across the client's entire collection. The Bauhaus dial aesthetic rewards long looks — exactly what a dial-forward collector wants.

The Orion 38 speaks directly to the client's love of restrained, dial-forward design. Its sub-8mm case echoes the Maen Manhattan's ultra-thin ethos, the field-watch legibility aligns with the Formex Field's purposeful aesthetic, and the precision German movement gives it true tool-watch credibility without the bulk. A different flavour — minimalism elevated to horological craft.

A perfect synthesis of the client's three pillars: the salmon-dial Formex's obsession with beautiful, expressive colour, the Maen Manhattan's ultra-slim wrist presence, and the CW C60's sporty character distilled into a dial-forward package. At 7.95mm thick with Grade-A case finishing and a vivid teal dial, it sits confidently under any cuff while still making a bold statement.
