The world-famous Squale 1521 series is a must for all diving watch lovers. Not only because of the great importance of the brand, but also because of the excellent quality. It's not about trends or prestige, but rather functionality, timelessness and performance. 1521 means real nostalgia with great technology on your wrist.

The "1521" is the iconic collection and takes its name from the original production reference that Charles von Büren gave this case in the 1960s and which has remained true to the original to this day. The watch, designed and manufactured at the birth of the diving watch, guarantees all lovers of underwater experiences above-average water resistance with its pressure resistance of 50 ATM.
