Optionen wählen
The Aquastar Benthos Professional DLC Black is a bold modern interpretation of one of the most iconic professional dive watches ever created. Inspired by the legendary Benthos 500 of the 1970s, this contemporary model preserves the collection’s distinctive design language while introducing advanced materials and modern Swiss engineering. Built for serious underwater performance, the Benthos Professional combines Aquastar’s rich diving heritage with the durability and reliability expected by today’s enthusiasts and professional divers.
Crafted from stainless steel and finished with a rugged black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating, the case offers exceptional resistance to scratches and wear while delivering a stealthy, contemporary aesthetic. The distinctive asymmetrical profile remains faithful to the historic Benthos design, featuring a screw-down crown and professional-grade construction engineered to withstand demanding environments. A sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment protects the dial, ensuring outstanding clarity and durability in all conditions.
The dial prioritises maximum legibility, featuring bold hands and luminous hour markers filled with Super-LumiNova for exceptional visibility in low-light and underwater environments. True to the original Benthos concept, the oversized minute hand allows divers to quickly monitor elapsed dive time, while the unidirectional rotating bezel provides precise and secure timing functionality. The clean, purposeful layout reflects the watch’s origins as a professional diving instrument.
Powering the Benthos Professional DLC Black is the Swiss-made La Joux-Perret G100 automatic movement. Renowned for its reliability and modern performance, this premium calibre offers an impressive 68-hour power reserve, ensuring dependable operation even when left unworn for several days. Combining robust construction with excellent accuracy, the movement perfectly complements the watch’s tool-watch credentials.
Completing the watch is a genuine ISOfrane® rubber strap, widely regarded as one of the finest dive watch straps ever produced. Originally developed for professional diving applications, the ISOfrane® strap is celebrated for its exceptional comfort, flexibility and durability. Its lightweight design, resistance to saltwater and secure fit make it the ideal companion for a watch built to excel beneath the surface.
Combining the unmistakable character of the original Benthos with modern materials, contemporary specifications and a striking DLC-coated finish, the Aquastar Benthos Professional DLC Black is a compelling tribute to one of diving’s most innovative timepieces. Designed for adventure yet refined enough for everyday wear, it represents the perfect fusion of heritage, performance and modern craftsmanship.
