Our last review of an Aquatico watch was back in 2019 – now they’re back with the Aquatico Super Marine Dive Watch.
First Impressions: Aquatico Super Marine Dive Watch
Aquatico make budget dive watches with a lot of bang for their buck. Despite some QC issues, I did like their Sea Star watch when I reviewed it. Their latest model, the Super Marine, brings together traditional watchmaking with modern elements. Classic style hands and indices are combined with intense colours, satin-finished surfaces and a high-quality Vulcanized Rubber strap. At its heart is either a Swiss Sellita or HKPT movement.
The vintage-style case oozes 1970s-chic and keeps the watch looking thin, despite its extreme 1000m water resistance (with a helium release valve on the side of the case at 8 O’clock should you wish to take it deep sea diving). The dial is clean and easy to read, with a ceramic bezel being a welcome upgrade from the steel bezel of the Sea Star. Ceramic is hard-wearing, the colour won’t fade and it is virtually scratchproof.
There are three dial colours to choose from, with black or blue rubber straps. I’m particularly taken by the full-lume dial option which will look amazing in low light conditions.

Buy an Aquatico Super Marine
The Aquatico Super Marine is a limited edition of just 150 pieces. Given that, and the high-end movement, I was expecting a higher price, but you can preorder an Aquatico Super Marine watch for just £379 (at the current exchange rate, with the P5000 movement). The Swiss movement option will set you back a little more – but at £545 it compares well with the likes of Christopher Ward.
