A dive watch can save your life and your look. When you're underwater with a finite amount of oxygen in your tank, a bezel – that’s the rotating frame of some sport watches – is more than just a decorative touch. Divers know to align the bezel's arrow with the minute hand so they can easily see how long they've been underwater. Nowadays, other dive watch signatures – like black rubber straps, oversize cases, large numbers, luminous hour markers and screw down crowns – characterise everyday timepieces. Non-divers can use them to plot an exit strategy from a bad date, time dinner on the stove or discreetly monitor the time during your boss's excruciating PowerPoint presentation. With a dive watch, you always know when you can come up for air.
