New & Pristine! Steeldive Sd1996 Skx007 (black) 200m Ss Automatic Dive Watch

  

STEELDIVE SD1996 SKX007 (BLACK) 200M. The SD1996 is the Steeldive homage of the iconic and fan favourite Seiko SKX007 diver watch. SKXs are a product of the mid 90's but it's rich heritage dates back to the vintage workhorse divers of the 70's. The SKX is the quintessential workhorse diver and widely recognised as THE gateway to automatic mechanical diver watches.

An SKX is often cited as the first automatic timepiece owned by watch enthusiasts. Thanks to it's solid build quality and slick design at an affordable price, many enthusiasts and casual watch wearers are able to access and enjoy this fantastic timepiece! SKXs are pound-for-pound solid timepieces and are more than capable of holding their own against watches at much higher price points.

It's not uncommon to find an SKX sitting comfortably beside far more expensive watches in many enthusiasts' collections! In the last 10 years, SKXs have become quite the internet darling, with the love for these models spreading like wildfire across online watch communities and social media!

Touted as the'King of Affordable Dive Watches', SKXs continue to be one of most iconic and beloved of all diver watches! The Steeldive SD1996 black variant is a loving and faithful recreation of perhaps the most popular SKX model of all - the SKX007!

Not only has the SD1996 been kept faithful to the ideals of the SKX007; that is, to offer a practical diving timepiece of solid build quality and specifications at a price point that anyone can enjoy; but it has taken those same ideals and gone one step further to offer an even more attractive value proposition than that of the SKX007 itself! This beautiful timepiece is powered by the workhorse Japanese mechanical movement, the 24 jewel NH35, for solid and reliable timekeeping. And combined with it's screwdown crown, screwdown caseback and 200M water resistance, you are getting a robust piece of engineering on your wrist!

All Steeldive models feature superb lumed hands, indices and bezel, and this watch is no exception. When exposed to darkness, the SD1996 radiates a rich two-toned blue and green glow in which one can describe as'nuclear lume'! The Steeldive SD1996 SKX007 not only offers a design loved by legions of watch enthusiasts, but it's also a solid choice as an all-rounder timepiece, suitable for both formal and casual wear, as well as offering specifications that are even more superior to it's original counterpart - all for an incredible and affordable value!

Please note that the watch will come with the Oyster-style bracelet shown in the main image and video.
