The DOXA Sub 200 Aquamarine is the “Tiffany Dial” Watch Everyone Wants
Thursday - 02 February 2023
The DOXA SUB 200 Aquamarine is an affordable “Tiffany Dial” option that packs a tough 200-meter water resistance, a rotating bezel and luminous dial markings into its dive-ready design
Tiffany dials are back on trend. In fact, they never really went out of fashion, but they’re incredibly hard to get your hands on, especially if you’ve got your heart set on the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 “Tiffany Blue” limited edition watch or a vintage Rolex Oyster Perpetual Tiffany & Co watch. For those that want the next best thing, there are a few hot watches on the market right now. One is the Tissot PRX Tiffany dial watch I reviewed here and the other is a turquoise dive watch from DOXA.
There are a few of these turquoise dial options to choose from within DOXA’s impressive range of robust and rugged dive tools. Designed for those who take diving seriously (but also for those who just love the sheer boldness and the archetypal look of the DOXA dive watch), each instrument offers a little something different. For the purpose of this article, we’re going to look at the DOXA SUB 200 Aquamarine watch, but just so you know – you can also order the DOXA SUB 600T Aquamarine on a rubber band, on a stainless steel bracelet and with a black or steel bezel, as well as the SUB 300T models and even the 1500 models at Jura Watches by clicking here.
The good news is that the DOXA SUB 200 watches are the entry-level models. They’re simple and straightforward, promising to do exactly what they say they’re going to do – equip you with a robust and hardwearing tool that can uphold water pressure down to 200-meter depths. They also have some awesome features like legible dial markings, a tough exterior made of steel and plexiglass and a reliable movement sitting inside, not to mention a comfortable and practical strap or band. But what makes the DOXA SUB 200 a watch that everyone wants to own is its highly sought-after dial colour. Tiffany dials are often associated with elite watch-collecting circles and those with stacks of money. That’s all changing now, thanks to brands like DOXA, who has always stood for affordability and is changing nothing in the way of price to create a Tiffany dial of its very own.
The DOXA SUB 200 is an affordable and functional dive tool, but add to this a bezel and dial in this year’s most on-trend watch colour and all of a sudden, you have a dive watch that couldn’t be more current if it tried. The DOXA SUB 200 Aquamarine watch is available on a stainless-steel bracelet or a matching turquoise rubber band in a stylish mesh effect. It’s the perfect introductory dive watch into the Tiffany dial trend. The standard size measures a 42mm diameter, which is ample for anyone with an average-sized wrist. Packed with a 200-meter water resistance and a domed plexiglass lens with scratch-resistant properties, nothing is damaging this dial. That Tiffany dial shines through the glass top, interacting beautifully with the light in marine-inspired blue hues. The rectangular-shaped markers around the hour track are elongated at 12, 6 and 9 o’clock, whilst the 3 o’clock location is occupied by a date widow in white. Black dashes fill the minute track around the edge of the dial, matching nicely with a black-filled unidirectional rotating bezel and a 60-minute dive scale printed upon its surface.
The DOXA SUB 200 Tiffany dial is powered by an automatic movement with a power reserve of 38 hours. It performs at 28,800 vibrations per hour and comprises a total of 26 jewels. The scale markings on the bezel have luminous markings on them to match the hour markers and hands on the main dial for assisted timekeeping in the dark or during the night. The FKM rubber strap that completes the bold and youthful look of this DOXA SUB 200 Aquamarine dive watch secures with a stainless steel pin buckle engraved with the DOXA fish symbol.
