Laventure Sous-Marine II Bronze

Archive · used only

Laventure is a Neuchâtel independent, and the Sous-Marine II takes its inspiration from the underwater explorations of the 1960s. This version is CuSn8 bronze, case and crown, polished and satin-finished, 40.5 mm across and 48.8 mm lug to lug, and it will darken with wear. The dial is a cream sandwich design with no date, under a domed Plexiglas Superdome crystal of the kind the period watches used. Inside is the Laventure Caliber 2, developed with Jean-François Mojon's Chronode, with 60 hours of reserve, visible through a stainless steel caseback with a sapphire window, so it is not nickel-free. It is rated to 200 m. It has sold out, and Laventure does not remake sold-out models.
