Introducing the Squale COLLECTION 2001 Reverse Orange 2001BKOR.AC - a stunning reissue of an iconic dive watch born from Squale’s legendary heritage in professional diving.

The stunning reverse Orange dial is equipped with polished steel indices coated in Super-LumiNova C3 for outstanding visibility, even in the darkest depths.

With a water resistance of 600 meters and powered by the precise Sellita SW200-1 Elaboré automatic movement, this timepiece is built for serious underwater performance. Finished with a vintage-inspired stainless steel bracelet, the Reference 2001 Reverse Orange is a must-have for dive watch enthusiasts seeking authentic Swiss craftsmanship and a powerful connection to diving history.
