The Benguela takes its name from the ocean current off South Africa’s west coastan environment both harsh and beautiful, known for claiming many wayward ships. Designed as a professional-grade diving instrument, this tool watch embodies the ruggedness of the dive tools you rely on.
Its case features an offset knurled crown at 4 o’clock for comfort, while the Helium Escape Valve (HEV) at 2 o’clock equalizes internal pressure after extended dives at extreme depths. The hooded lugs offer a modern take on lesser-known vintage dive brands, giving the watch a distinct and aggressive character. On the case back, a deeply engraved sea monster, inspired by the South African Paper Nautilus myth, adds a touch of folklore.
The dial is meticulously crafted with bead-blasted steel slabs set atop a sandwich dial, creating incredible depth. After dark, the markers glow brightly thanks to a generous application of X1-Old Radium Swiss Super-LumiNova, and the custom date wheel is also luminous for easy reading in low light.
Powered by the reliable Swiss-made ETA 2824-2 movement, the Benguela features 25 jewels, a 38-hour power reserve, Incabloc shock protection, and both hacking and hand-winding capabilities. The solid stainless steel bezel, with its precise 120-click mechanism, offers a secure and dependable feel, and a luminous pip at 12 o’clock marks the start time of a dive.
Each Benguela watch comes standard with a bead-blasted bracelet featuring a micro-adjust clasp, along with a natural rubber strap ideal for water sports. For a more casual look, a thick leather strap is also available.
