The Model 60 story
The original Swiss skindiver, 1957.
Frédéric Robert’s first dive watch shipped in 1957 with a 37 mm cushion case and a uni-directional 60-minute elapsed-time bezel. It defined what a skindiver watch is, and it was the proof-of-concept that made the Deepstar possible. Don Walsh wore one to Challenger Deep. The Re-Edition MKII rebuilds it with a Sellita SW200-1 in Elaboré grade and the same case geometry, off the original 1957 drawings.
