Starting with the water resistance, a rather important prerequisite of any dive watch, the Blue Devil has 60ATM which, truth be told, is likely to be more than you’re ever going to need and it backs this up with materials that stand out from the crowd. You’ll find 43mm stainless steel casing with an internal rotating bezel via crown at two’o’clock position and a number of different strap choices including leather, rubber and steel – so you’re sure to find one that matches your style requirements.

The royal blue dial is, of course, one of the most striking features of this dive watch from Maurice Lacroix and very in keeping with its nautical usage. It accents this blue very successfully with yellow hands that provide the sort of legibility that is essential for a dive watch and for any lover of the open water looking for a new timepiece, this is definitely going to tick plenty of the right boxes.

A Watch Built for Water

Maurice Lacroix haven’t established themselves as one of the most respected watchmakers out there for no reason and the specifications found in this Blue Devil dive watch are going to show why they are held in such high regard. It boasts a ML115 (Sellita sw200) movement that will guarantee the accuracy of the watch and it has the sort of understated, yet rugged, aesthetic which is essential for all of the best dive watches.
