The colour of the D-1 Ocean Diver has been inspired by the deepest blue of the world’s oceans, as viewed from space. It features a meticulously engineered 120-click unidirectional bezel in matte blue, which compliments the dial colour. The dished, single-piece dial together with the curved sapphire glass, makes legibility simple, day or night, above or below the surface.

The D-1 Ocean Diver is also
the first of new Aera watches to use Globolight® on its indexes and markers. Combined with hand-filled Super-LumiNova®, this creates a unique bright and longer-lasting afterglow, offering exceptional visibility in low-lighting conditions and an unparalleled at-a-glance field of view. It also gives the markers and numbers their distinct 3D effect.

The D-1 Ocean Diver comes on a matching blue, quick-release rubber strap. In addition choose your second strap with our compliments.

The watch is also presented in a leather pouch handmade in the UK using British calf leather.

FROM THE DEEP

The aquatic origins of the AERA D–1 Diver

In the 20th century, great leaps forward in technology brought previously uncharted territories within reach. Wristwatches quickly became vital safety tools. In the oceans, the invention of SCUBA (self-contained underwater breathing apparatus) gave divers unprecedented new freedom of movement to explore the depths. But it also brought new risks.

Dive watches developed quickly to address those risks. Unidirectional bezels (which could not rotate clockwise) were created to make it impossible for a diver to inadvertently knock the bezel during a dive to give a mistaken indication of more time available underwater. Tough cases and crystals, screw-in case backs and screw-down crowns were developed to withstand the water pressure of ever deeper dives. Finally, watch dials evolved into supremely legible displays with large light-emitting indexes that could be read even in low light.

We wanted the D-1 Diver to look and feel like a contemporary statement, so we’ve stripped out the unnecessary details and kept only the essentials. It's a simple timepiece with form-emphasising design that creates a striking piece of architecture on the wrist.

OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

"I bought a D-1 Diver after reading about it on Hodinkee. It's a spectacular watch - sits great on the wrist, the weight is perfect, the dial super easy to read and the accents like the blue really make this watch pop. The ability to easily swap out bands is really smart. Aera's customer service goes over the top in making sure you feel part of the new Aera family."

John, Vermont, USA

"The way the domed sapphire runs seamlessly into the ceramic bezel and the shape of the case as it dives away from the bezel towards your wrist echoing what's above. It really is a beautiful piece of design and in the flesh I have to say it is even better. It makes looking at something as simple as the time a real treat and the more I have worn it the more I have fallen for its charms."

Clark, Stratford-Upon-Avon, UK

"The watch is beautiful, the packaging and presentation were perfect, and the fit, feel and quality of the watch and the straps are superb. As a divemaster and active diver for over 40 years...I’m very much looking forward to enjoying my D-1 under water. It is quite obviously intended for, and fully capable of taking a beating in the ocean."

Mike, Texas, USA

""My concerns over 16 mm thickness vanished the second I got it on. Certainly draws attention but in a good way of refinement. More so from the incredibly executed contrast of the dial elements. Perfect iteration of what I was looking for. Modern with pristine form and function. Probably my favourite of all the watches I have owned. Thankfully, she sits surprisingly demure. Neither too tall nor too wide. So many details in the design are just plain executed to perfection."

Dirk, Minnesota, USA
