Squale Master Marina Militare

The connection with the Marina Militare (Italian Navy) goes back to the 80s when Squale was awarded a contract to become the official watch supplier to the La Spezia Scuba Diving Corp.

For this purpose, special Squale watches were designed and crafted according to the specific requests of the Navy itself.

40 years after that notable collaboration, the Marina Militare and Squale have decided to renew this professional partnership, producing a watch in a limited edition of only 300 pieces, once again made in collaboration with the Navy in every detail.

For this distinguished collaboration, it was decided to revive the historic Squale “Master” caseback. This model was one of the first casebacks designed by Charles Von Büren in the 60s.

Over time, the Squale Master became an established name in the world of diving enthusiasts, as famous freedivers such as Enzo Maiorca and Jacques Mayol chose it as their reliable companion during their underwater adventures. The technical characteristics of this pioneering watch guaranteed water resistance up to a depth of 1000 meters.

With the aim of creating an even higher performance product for the renewed collaboration with the Italian Navy, the Master caseback has undergone some technical improvements (such as the introduction of the helium valve and the addition of an 4 millimeter-thick sapphire crystal) to withstand depths of up to 1200 meters

The Drass Galeazzi company (world leader in the production of submarines) carried out the caseback water resistant tests in their laboratories and certified the resistance up to 120 ATM.

All the features of the watch have been designed to create an incredibly high- performance watch, able to meet the needs and high standards of the Italian Navy.

The dial was made with the "sandwich" technique, which allows a greater amount of SuperLuminova BWG9 to be concentrated in the large indexes.

The "bund" bezel is another unique feature of the Squale Master X Marina Militare; without a tachymeter scale - and with only one triangle in SuperLuminova.

Exclusively intended for use by military diving corps, it was born out of the need to monitor the hours spent on very long dives, and not the minutes as in traditional underwater-use bezels.

The caseback bears the Italian Navy coat of arms, depicting the four Maritime Republics, as well as the edition number of the limited series.
