dive watch

Underwater wrist clock

A dive watch is a wristwatch designed to withstand underwater pressure, typically water-resistant to at least 100 meters.

Features include a unidirectional rotating bezel for tracking elapsed time underwater, luminous hands and markers for visibility in dark conditions, and a secure bracelet or strap.

Originally built for scuba divers and military use, dive watches have become popular as rugged everyday timepieces: He wore his dive watch to the office, never mind that he hadn't been diving in years.
