All about the Vintage VDB E23 Military Surface diving watch

Everything about the Vintage VDB E23 Military Surface diving watch, which impresses with a black dial and rubber strap.

The E23 Military Surface embodies exactly what VDB (the acronym stands for the apt name Vintage Daily Beater) is all about: a striking, masculine design >, trimmed for the unmistakable vintage look. Round, in the figurative sense, but somehow with corners and edges. VDB has its roots built into its name. The 'E' stands for Erfurt, where the brand was founded.

 The movement of the Vintage VDB E23 Military Surface diving watch

When it comes to the movement, VDB does not experiment and chooses no lesser movement than the famous ETA 2824-2. The Swiss automatic movement with the illustrious name has been the top dog in the premium segment for decades. Even though some manufactured movements have now outstripped their power reserve, you can get through the day easily with the 38 hours that the ETA offers. span>
