Quick TakeForget your desk-diving pretenders; the DOXA SUB 1500T Caribbean is the real deal, a heavyweight champion born from deep-sea heritage. That hefty 45mm cushion case isn't just for show – it's a stainless steel fortress housing a Swiss automatic heart, ready to plunge down to an almost unbelievable 1,500 meters. Think about that: nearly a mile beneath the waves! Its lineage traces directly back to the groundbreaking Conquistador, inheriting that vital helium release valve for serious saturation dives. The sharp, ocean-blue 'Caribbean' dial isn't just pretty; it's a command center, with bold markers and hands blazing with Super-LumiNova, cutting through the underwater gloom. Twisting the signature DOXA unidirectional bezel feels purposeful, each click a reminder of its life-saving function, calibrated in feet like the vintage originals. Whether clamped onto your wrist with the solid steel bracelet or the flexible FKM rubber, both featuring that essential wetsuit extension, this watch screams capability. It's more than a timepiece; it's a piece of hardcore diving equipment that just happens to look fantastic.

DescriptionThe SUB 1500T Caribbean utilizes a Swiss origin, automatic self-winding mechanical movement, engineered for reliability and operating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4.0 Hz). This high frequency contributes to the smooth sweep of the seconds hand and overall timekeeping precision. The movement features internal decoration applied by Doxa and provides a substantial power reserve of 50 hours when fully wound, ensuring continuous operation for over two days off the wrist. Time indication is achieved through central hour, minute, and second hands, complemented by a date display aperture integrated into the dial layout for added functionality. The mechanism is housed within a formidable case designed for extreme underwater environments. Protection for the intricate movement is paramount, achieved through robust construction and sealing methods.

Constructed entirely from high-grade 316L stainless steel, the cushion-shaped case provides exceptional corrosion resistance. Its substantial dimensions measure 45.00 mm in width and 47.00 mm lug-to-lug, with a case height of 16.25 mm, establishing a significant wrist presence. Ensuring water integrity to extreme depths, the case incorporates a screw-down crown and a solid 316L stainless steel screw-down case back. These features contribute to an impressive water resistance rating of 150 atmospheres, equivalent to 1,500 meters or 5,249 feet. Further enhancing its deep-diving credentials is an integrated automatic helium release valve, essential for saturation diving applications. The dial is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. A key functional element is the patented unidirectional rotating bezel, calibrated in feet, allowing for the safe measurement of dive times. Critical dive-related elements on the bezel and the iconic Caribbean blue dial are treated with Super-LumiNova for optimal legibility in low-light underwater conditions. The watch secures to the wrist via a 21.00 mm lug width, accepting either a 316L stainless steel bracelet or an FKM rubber strap. Both options feature a folding clasp incorporating a wetsuit extension; the rubber strap version includes a ratcheting mechanism for fine adjustments.
