Quick TakePlunge into azure depths with the DOXA SUB 300 Caribbean, a watch that feels less like a time-teller and more like essential dive gear infused with vintage cool. Its deep blue dial mirrors the waters it was born to explore, while the COSC-certified automatic heart beats reliably, ensuring you're always on schedule, whether that's timing a dive or just making happy hour. That chunky, purposeful 316L steel case isn't just for show; it’s a 300-meter water-resistant vault for the precise Swiss movement ticking inside. Twisting the unique, patented bezel feels satisfyingly mechanical, a direct link to dive watch history designed for real underwater calculation, not just desk-diving daydreams. The bright orange minute hand pops against the blue, a flash of functional flair ensuring quick reads when visibility drops. Secured by the iconic beads-of-rice bracelet or a tough rubber strap, both with dive extensions, it’s ready for any adventure, wet or dry. It’s a piece of heritage, rebuilt for today's explorer.
DescriptionThis timepiece is engineered around a robust 316L stainless steel case structure, dimensioned at 42.50 mm in diameter and 45.00 mm lug-to-lug, with a total height profile of 13.40 mm. Securing the integrity of the internal mechanism is a screw-down crown and a solid stainless steel screw-down case back, contributing to a significant water resistance rating evaluated at 30 ATM, equivalent to 300 meters or 984 feet. The operational core is a Swiss mechanical automatic movement, certified as a Chronometer by COSC (Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres), ensuring adherence to stringent precision standards. This self-winding caliber operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4.0 Hz) and provides a power reserve of approximately 38 hours when fully wound. The movement also features decoration executed by DOXA, visible through detailing considerations rather than an exhibition case back.
Functionality extends to time indication via central hours, minutes, and seconds hands, supplemented by a date display located aperture at the 3 o'clock position on the dial. Protecting the dial assembly is a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, designed with a domed profile reminiscent of the original 1967 model's plexiglass but offering modern durability and clarity enhancement through an anti-reflective treatment. A critical feature for diving applications is the patented unidirectional rotating bezel, calibrated in meters. This bezel incorporates a dual scale system, indicating dive time in minutes and depth in meters, facilitating calculations for no-decompression stop limits. Legibility in low-light underwater environments is optimized through the application of Super-LumiNova luminescent material on all dive-pertinent markers and hands. Attachment to the wrist is facilitated by either a stainless steel "Beads of Rice" bracelet or an FKM rubber strap, both featuring folding clasps equipped with integrated wetsuit extensions; the rubber strap option includes a ratcheting adjustment mechanism. The lug width for strap or bracelet attachment is standardized at 20.00 mm.
