I have to admit, that I am a real Swatch fan. For me this is the best “S”econd “watch”. Have a look at these new summer scuba watches
Do you know what Swatch means? It means “S”econd “watch”. When Nicolas G. Hayek created the brand in 1983 this was the most logical name for a cheap Swiss made plastic watch. Swatch could of course also mean “S”wiss “watch”, but second watch was the name given to Swatch.
Since then millions of Swatch had been sold and the meanwhile iconic brand is known all over the world.
Let me show you the newest Scuba watches from Swatch called Scuba Libre. They will be available in your stores in the next days and here in Austria they cost 70 Euro. What you get is really good value for money and since every Swatch shown here is waterproof up to 200 meters it is a real watch for the upcoming summer. Whatever you plan to do, the Scuba Libre will not just look good on your wrist but it will also always tell you the correct time.
Ready? Go!
Swatch surfaces with a new look on life and a Scuba watch with a difference: it’s not just for divers, it’s for the rest of us, too. As we sail the streets of a gridlocked city, board a submarine subway for a storm-tossed ride home, or take the wheel of a sloop in downtown Manhattan, there’s no limit to the power of our imagination when unleashed by passion and the new Scuba Libre from Swatch .

The new Scuba Libre Collection does give water fans what they want, of course. Big, bold indicators in high-contrast colours are easy to read when swimming with the fish in the wonder of life undersea. Hands-on, rotating bezels and snug, rugged silicone straps do the rest.
But for visionaries on dry land, it’s the look that counts – sexy and sea-worthy at the same time. So three of the new models open up the dial to show coloured movements in translucent cases, and the eye-candy colours are trending now, too. And for the urban gentleman who’s secretly mad about the sea, more models speak openly of his passion. Brash, competent and supremely confident, a real sailor knows what he wants – and gets it, underwater and above.
Tell me guys … You like them? Your comments are more than welcome!
I just bought the Scuba WHALEBONE (795 Dirhams = 93 $ )
+ : Cheap scuba diving watch. Light and comfortable. Cool sport’s design. I think it’s water-resistant (200m) but…
– : On the notice they said ” not for professional divers ” ! and… I still hear the tic tac sound even when the watch is 5 meters far from me.
“Not for professional divers” is just written on it for legal reasons. No divers watch sold in theory is for professional divers unless someone declares it to be so…
The loud tick tack is unique for Swatch … I would miss it even under water 🙂
I dont like whalebone I like playero
Looks like a great “Go To The Beach” (or pool) watch. Attractive, waterproof and not something to get all worked up about if you lose it or scratch it.
My current beach watch needs a battery so maybe I’ll just look for these instead.
Very cool.
They look quite cute. They won’t replace my Seikos but they are fun and useful nevertheless. Some do remind of the “Ice Watch” fashion brand.
It would be really good if superluminova is applied. But it is not mentioned in the text, so I guess there is no lume. Can anyone confirm?
My vote would be one of these Scuba Libre watches with the new Swatch 51 automatic movement inside !
I like these, sure! Fun&cheap! Good stuff Swatch!
