Model Three Diver - Blue Dial / SS Case
With its robust construction and purposeful aesthetics, the model three diver stands as a clear testament to Alkin's commitment to functionality and legibility. This confident timepiece is a true tool watch, purposefully crafted to meet the rigorous demands of adventure seekers everywhere.
The model three diver marks a clear evolution of the alkin ‘house style’, carrying over key elements form the model two, including the bold sword and arrow handset. In order to create a sense of ‘depth’ on the diver dial, the model three employs a sandwich design, with the hour indices cut out to expose the Super-LumiNova finish lower dial. In a nostalgic nod to vintage diver designs, the cut-out markers at 3, 6, and 9 bear numbers delicately printed within their triangular forms. To further enhance this sense of depth, the top dial is finished in a textured paint, creating a rugged finish that catches the light from every angle.
The use of sapphire crystal, Super-LumiNova and the Miyota 9039 automatic movement all demonstrates the central alkin commitment to quality and functionality. These firm choices in materials and movements exemplify our unwavering pledge to crafting timepieces of the highest caliber while maintaining an accessible price point.
A ceramic insert is house within the unidirectional rotating bezel, with the numbers and markers being laser etched and then filled with BGW9 Super-LlumiNova.
All versions of the Model Three will ship on a brushed stainless steel bracelet with solid endlinks and a milled clasp. Adjustment links are secured by screw pins and a six stop micro adjustment allows you to achieve a perfect fit.
