A-5 UDT - Abyss Blue

The A-5 UDT was designed to meet an operational need that has existed ever since men could dive: reliable timekeeping underwater. Based off an original USN BUSHIPS design, this dive watch exudes ruggedness with its oversized crown and solid case. During WW2, this system was the only way for Underwater Demolition Teams to safely ensure their watches’ water-resistance during extended dive missions.

We've brought a little twist on the original black dial design with a shaded blue dial. Going from a  deep blue to a lighter blue, we've also switched from the standard white indexes to a light blue index (and luminous) to bring this watch a bit more origniaility and modernity.

The most versatile sports strap we’ve had yet - the Blue Tropic Strap features a vintage criss-cross pattern for added softness on the wrist while the punched holes allow breathability under the strap. Dries in an instant & does not fear any kind of liquid - this strap balances out the vintage field watch aesthetic while still providing all the ruggedness. Or, pair this with our first Solid Stainless Steel Beads of Rice Bracelet for maximal durability.
