The Triton SPIROTECHNIQUE Sport Black

The Return of an Icon

With the Spirotechnique, Triton is bringing back a legendary dive watch, which already set new standards in 1963. Developed then by Colonel Jean René Parmentier for professional use, it combined avant-garde design with the highest functionality. The new Spirotechnique remains true to this heritage, combining historical design elements with state-of-the-art watchmaking. Every detail has been carefully reworked to preserve the unmistakable aesthetic of the original Triton dive watch, while technical improvements elevate its performance to a new level.

Case – Vintage Design with Modern Robustness

The distinctive stainless steel case of the Spirotechnique remains true to its historical predecessor and impresses with classic proportions of 39 mm diameter. The gently curved lines, the domed sapphire crystal, and the polished and satin-finished surfaces give it an elegant yet functional character.

Despite its nostalgic design, the case offers an impressive water resistance of 200 meters, ensured by elaborate testing procedures. Like its famous predecessor from the 1960s, the new Spirotechnique was designed for tough underwater use. The result is a robust, meticulously designed dive watch that delights both adventurers and collectors.

Crown Protector – An Unmistakable Trademark

A central feature of every Triton watch is the unusual crown position at 12 o'clock. This unique construction, combined with the movable crown protector, not only provides high protection against impacts but also an unmistakable look. Since 1963, this striking detail has set Triton watches apart from all other dive watches and underscores their innovative character.

Movement – Swiss Precision with High Power Reserve

Inside the Spirotechnique beats a mechanical automatic movement specially designed for Triton, based on the renowned La Joux-Perret G100. This caliber, manufactured entirely in Switzerland, operates at a frequency of 28,800 semi-oscillations per hour and offers an impressive power reserve of 68 hours – a crucial advantage for those who do not wish to wind their watch daily.

The movement is refined by delicate Côtes de Genève engravings on the rotor and bridge, whose decorative design underscores Triton's high craftsmanship standards. In addition to precise hour, minute, and second indications, the caliber features a date function with quick setting and a stop-seconds function for exact time adjustment.

Dial & Bezel – Perfect Legibility in Any Environment

The dial of the Spirotechnique was specially designed for optimal legibility under various conditions. The generous hands and indices, coated with Super-Luminova, glow brightly, ensuring excellent readability even in complete darkness. The fine craftsmanship of the dials requires high precision, especially for the elaborate application of the luminous material.

Another highlight is the unidirectional rotating diver's bezel, which precisely clicks into place with 120 clicks. The synthetic resin insert gives it a classic vintage character, while the distinctive, Super-Luminova coated numerals ensure excellent legibility even underwater.

Strap – A Touch of Nostalgia with Modern Comfort

The design of the Spirotechnique is rounded off by a Tropic sports strap, specially developed for this model. Inspired by the iconic dive watches of the 1960s, it combines a classic look with the durability of modern materials. The fine grained texture of the rubber is reminiscent of its historical predecessors and provides a pleasant feel and maximum wearing comfort – whether over a wetsuit or directly on the wrist.
