Michel Herbelin Newport Heritage Diver Automatic

The Michel Herbelin Newport Heritage Diver is the latest evolution of the popular Newport collection. Inspired by the America’s Cup and the race to Newport, Rhode Island, Newport watches have a nautical aesthetic. Design cues are from the portholes of transatlantic yachts, ships wheels and maritime colours.

Case, Dial, Movement

Firstly, the new Diver Automatic model has a striking 42mm cushion-shaped case. Crafted from stainless steel, the bezel has a blue ceramic insert. Similarly, the dégradé dial is also in blue and is darker at the edges. Additionally, the chunky luminous hour markers and hands allow for visibility even in poor light. Furthermore, the easy-grip crown has a ship’s wheel motif.

Additionally, a blue FKM rubber strap secures the watch to the wrist. Superior to silicone, it’s so durable, it comes with its own 10 Year Guarantee. Moreover, an extension on the clasp ensures it can fit over a diving suit.

Finally, the Michel Herbelin Newport Heritage Diver is equipped with a reliable Swiss Sellita automatic movement. Water resistant to 30 bars (300m), it is suitable for diving as well as sailing.

With a definite 1970’s feel, the Newport Diver is a striking watch that would look great on any man’s wrist. Read our article on the Newport Diver here.
