Nautic 666 Automatique 39 mm

Made in France - Besançon

Designed in the late 1960s to meet the demands of the North American market, the Nautic 666, nicknamed the "Devil Diver," has become an iconic watch in the field of dive watches. Known for its durability and distinctive design, this waterproof watch from the LIP brand can withstand depths of up to 200 meters.

Equipped with a 39mm brushed 316L stainless steel case, the Nautic 666 offers maximum protection against corrosion and shocks. It features a 120-click unidirectional rotating bezel with a grey anodized aluminum insert, ensuring both great functionality and a unique aesthetic. The sunburst black dial, with remarkable finesse, covers the LIP R26 movement, a mechanical automatic movement made in Besançon. This historical movement marks an important step in LIP's history, being the first automatic movement produced in the workshops of Besançon since Fred LIP.

Perfect for diving and water sports enthusiasts, the Nautic 666 is protected by a slightly domed sapphire crystal, treated with anti-reflective coating on both sides for optimal readability, even in low-light conditions. The date window is equipped with a magnifier for easier reading. Additionally, the "old radium" luminescent indexes ensure excellent visibility, even in the dark and underwater. The bracelet of this dive watch is made of brushed 316L stainless steel with three rows of links, providing a perfect balance between flexibility and durability. It is equipped with a deployant safety clasp, ensuring a secure fit and optimal comfort. The screwed transparent case back, adorned with a flat glass, allows observation of the French-made automatic movement, revealing the balance wheel oscillating at 3 hertz. The LIP logo is visible through the movements of the oscillating weight, adding an aesthetic dimension to its technical operation. With a water resistance guaranteed up to 200 meters, the Nautic 666 is an exceptional dive watch. Although each model is individually numbered, this watch is not a limited edition, ensuring ongoing availability for collectors and enthusiasts of fine watches.
