Squale Professional Diving watches since 1959. Made in Switzerland.

 

Squale 2001LAVAL.HT Limited Edition 600m WR Dive Watch - A Tribute to history and Innovation. Limited to 300 timepieces globally.

 

The Squale 2001 collection marks a defining chapter in dive watch history, emerging during the transformative 1960s, when cutting-edge technology redefined timepieces for professional use. Renowned for its innovation and durability, this collection introduced groundbreaking features that remain iconic to this day.

 

The original Squale 2001 set itself apart with its distinctive case design, featuring hidden lugs, and its revolutionary "push to release" bezel-locking system. With a remarkable water resistance of 100m , it quickly became a symbol of dive watch excellence and inspired subsequent collections like the Squale 2002 and 2003.

 

A significant moment in its legacy came in 1972, when Jacques-Yves Cousteau gifted a Squale 2001 to Michel Laval, the first officer of the Calypso, during their Antarctic expedition. Engraved with Cousteau's initials and Laval's name, this watch became a symbol of camaraderie and exploration, continuing a tradition of meaningful gifts for key crew members.

 

Now, Squale celebrates this legacy with a limited-edition release of just 300 pieces. Faithfully replicating the original, the new Squale 2001LAVAL.HT retains its iconic proportions and design. The asymmetric, barrel-shaped case with hidden lugs measures 40mm in diameter and 43mm in length, offering a compact feel. The crown, positioned at 4 o’clock, integrates seamlessly into the polished stainless steel case.

 

The two-tone bezel, crafted from sapphire crystal, features a vintage-inspired black-and-orange design. Its "push to release" mechanism ensures secure adjustment, locking in place with perpendicular pressure to prevent accidental movement.

 

The dial embraces retro charm with a black finish, a white rehaut, and bold minute markers. Polished steel indices, coated with Super-Luminova C3, guarantee excellent legibility in low-light conditions. True to the original, the dial bears the word “Saphir,” denoting the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal that protects it.

 

Powering the watch is the reliable Swiss-made Sellita SW 200 automatic movement, offering precision and durability under the most demanding conditions. It features a quick-set date function displayed at the 3 o’clock position.

 

With water resistance up to 600m or 60 atmospheres, the Squale 2001Laval.ht is built to endure. Its Tropic-style rubber strap pays homage to the watch worn by Laval, completing the perfect blend of history, style, and performance.

 

Experience the timeless elegance and robust functionality of this exceptional dive watch – a true collector’s piece that honors the spirit of exploration.

 

The case size of the Squale 2001LAVAL.HT is 40mm with a thickness of 13mm, lug-to-lug of 43.6mm and a lug width of 19mm. The case back is 316 L Stainless Steel. The lockdown screw in crown is at the 4'o clock marker and the case back is screw in. The Bezel is a Bi-Directional Push-to-Release one.

 

The Squale 2001LAVAL.HT uses the Sellita Elabore SW200-1 mechanical automatic movement with a frequency of 28800 a/h (4Hz) and uses 26 jewels. The movement has a power reserve of 38 hours.

 

Why we love Squale: Squale began their days creating, testing and manufacturing dive watch cases for for the Swiss watch industries biggest brands. The Squale shark logo became synonymous for reliable dive watches and can be found on iconic dive watches of the 50's. The 2001LAVAL.HT is the perfect extension of the Squale brand with the clean and clear lines and the perfect look and finish for a dive watch that will not age in looks.
