Quick TakeThe Squale 1521 Blue Ray Rubber isn't just a watch; it's a trusty sidekick ready for any adventure. Its sturdy build and that smoky blue dial? Pure class. The 50 ATM water resistance means this bad boy laughs in the face of rogue waves and sudden downpours. Ticking away inside is the Sellita SW200-1, a workhorse movement that's as reliable as a Swiss train schedule. It's got that classic diver vibe but with modern touches like the sapphire crystal and SuperLuminova. This is a watch that can handle a black-tie gala or a deep-sea dive with equal ease.

DescriptionThe Squale 1521 Blue Ray Rubber, reference 1521PROFD.HT, is a purpose-built dive watch with a 42mm diameter case crafted from 316L stainless steel. The case features a polished finish and measures 12.5mm in thickness with a lug-to-lug length of 48mm. Water resistance is ensured to a depth of 50 atmospheres (approximately 500 meters or 1640 feet), owing to its screw-in crown and caseback. A unidirectional rotating bezel, with an aluminum insert, provides elapsed time measurement for safe diving practices. The watch is powered by a Swiss-made Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement. This self-winding mechanism has a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz), a power reserve of 38 hours, and features 26 jewels in its construction. The movement's "Elaboré" grade designation signifies a higher level of decoration and finishing compared to the standard version. Protecting the dial is a flat, anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The dial itself is a smoky blue color with printed indexes and Super-LumiNova C3 luminescent material applied to the hands and markers for optimal visibility in low-light conditions. Completing the watch is a black rubber strap, 20mm wide at the lugs, fitted with a 16mm buckle. This combination of robust construction, reliable mechanics, and clear legibility makes the Squale 1521 Blue Ray Rubber well-suited for both underwater exploration and everyday wear.

A notable aspect of the Squale 1521 Blue Ray Rubber is its relatively compact size for a dive watch. The 42mm diameter, combined with the short lug-to-lug length of 48mm, allows it to wear comfortably on a variety of wrist sizes. Despite its robust dive watch capabilities, the 12.5mm thickness helps maintain a reasonable profile on the wrist. The choice of a Sellita SW200-1 movement provides a reliable and well-known automatic caliber. Its "Elaboré" grade finish adds a touch of refinement, while the 38-hour power reserve is suitable for daily wear. The use of Super-LumiNova C3 on the dial ensures excellent low-light visibility, a crucial feature for any dive watch. Furthermore, the inclusion of a sapphire crystal provides superior scratch resistance compared to acrylic or mineral crystals often found on watches in this price range. The Squale 1521 Blue Ray Rubber's combination of classic dive watch styling, robust specifications, and considered design choices results in a timepiece that is both functional and versatile.
