The flat box that the watch comes in, with its folding watch wrap is a bit on the boring side. My other issue is that the polished case is a total scratch magnet. At approximately 829, the 50 Atmos is an impressive Swiss-made watch that, in terms of both style and construction, outsmarts most of the competition. Todays review takes a look at the black dial variant of the 50 Atmos (Ref. The bezel has a metallic look, and combined with its polished case and jubilee bracelet, it looks phenomenal! The dimensions are just that little bit smaller than I would have expected. Squale also introduced the Blue Dial and the Super Matte, two attractive additions to their popular 50 Atmos line. It’s not like your average Pepsi bezel Watch. The wonderful jubilee bracelet is one of the best I’ve come across, and doesn’t pull all the hair out of your wrist, which is a big plus point! It is the overall look of this watch that is the real winner though, it is a really beautiful watch. Overall, the size of the Squale 30 Atmos GMT 1545 is fine for the majority of the watch community though. I personally preferred the 42mm size case. Although it seems that Squale eventually listened to customers requesting a 40mm GMT. The previous 30 Atmos watches were all 42mm and were a perfect fit for me. I love Squale as a company and this watch is a stunner! But I do have some issues with the watch. To me, of all the 1545 iterations, the Original stands out because of its authentic, elongated second markers (no other Squale model has these)-& the black dial makes it an excellent all-rounder that pairs extremely well with almost any strap.First of all, I need to let you know something.

This one here, the Original model, is in like-new condition & has barely been worn-bracelet has never been worn. As military and civilian interest in dive watches exploded in the 1950s, helped in no small part by the films of Jacques Cousteau’s camera as it dwelled on his Fifty Fathoms, tiny Squale found itself in the right place to capitalize. Charles von Büren began producing watches in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, in 1946 and introduced waterproof diving models as early as 1950, a few years before the famous Blancpain Fifty Fathoms and Rolex Submariner were launched. The Squale 1545-ORIG has classic Swiss diver looks, real heritage, and solid Swiss construction The Squale name is known mainly among dive watch enthusiasts but it has serious history.

It’s the real deal, yet costs less than 1/10 as much as a Rolex Submariner.
