Made in France - Besançon
Designed in the late 1960s to meet the demands of the North American market, the Nautic 666, nicknamed "Devil Diver," quickly became an iconic dive watch. Known for its durability and distinctive design, this waterproof watch from the LIP brand is capable of withstanding depths of up to 200 meters, making it a perfect choice for diving and water sports enthusiasts. Its 39mm case, made of brushed 316L stainless steel, provides maximum protection against corrosion and shocks, ensuring exceptional robustness. The watch features a 120-click unidirectional rotating bezel with a gray anodized aluminum insert, giving it both great functionality and a unique aesthetic. The sunburst black dial, with remarkable finesse, covers the LIP R26 caliber, a mechanical self-winding movement made in Besançon. This historic movement marks an important milestone in LIP's history, being the first automatic movement produced by the Bisontin workshops after Fred LIP. Perfect for diving enthusiasts, the Nautic 666 is protected by a slightly domed sapphire crystal, treated with an anti-reflective coating on both sides for optimal legibility, even in low-light conditions. The date window is equipped with a magnifier for easier reading. Additionally, the "old radium" luminous markers ensure excellent visibility, even in darkness and underwater. The bracelet of this dive watch is made of beige elastomer and fastens with a chrome-plated ardillon buckle engraved with the LIP logo, ensuring a secure fit and optimal comfort. The transparent screwed case back, adorned with a flat crystal, allows you to observe the French-made automatic movement while revealing the balance wheel oscillating at 3 hertz. The LIP logo is visible through the movements of the oscillating mass, adding an aesthetic dimension to its technical function. With water resistance guaranteed to a depth of 200 meters, the Nautic 666 is an exceptional dive watch. Although each model is individually numbered, this watch is not a limited edition, ensuring continuous availability for collectors and watch enthusiasts.

This is Besançon's first self-winding Manufacture movement since Fred Lip. Redesigned in-house with the help of Besançon's SupMicroTech engineering school, it features a power reserve of 42 hours when fully wound, a hacking second hand, and a date display. With over 70% French value in terms of production, this movement, whose balance wheel oscillates at 21,600 beats per hour (3 Hertz), features the LIP logo on its gear bridge and oscillating weight, which seem to overlap enchantingly with its oscillations. Equipped with specific hexagonal screws for the gear bridges, balance, and oscillating weight, it is fully assembled, cased, and inspected by the master watchmakers working in LIP's Besançon workshops.

About NAUTIC 666
A French story
NAUTIC 666 - R26
The hell of a diver
Developed in the late 1960s for the North American market, the Nautic 666, nicknamed "Devil Diver," is famous for its dial indicating a maximum depth of 200 meters. Fred Lip, bold in his communication, dared to display this technical specification, defying the superstitions of the time. Today, this legendary model makes its return in the LIP collection with a 39 mm stainless steel case, a rotating bezel, and a transparent case back revealing the R26 movement, the first automatic movement from the manufacture since Fred Lip.
