Korsbek Watch Company

The Hydro Explorer combines a German made case with a Swiss movement. A rugged instrument designed by a real deep sea diver. Our goal was to design and engineer a tool watch that met and exceeded all the requirements of a professional diver.

Crafted from surgical-grade stainless steel, the German made case of this solid wrist instrument is rated water resistant to a depth of 500 meters (1,640 feet), and houses a thick inner case made of soft iron, which shields the automatic movement against the effects of magnetism.

Inside of the Hydro Explorer beats a 21-jewel shockproof ETA 2892-A2 automatic movement.

The Hydro Explorer ships in a blue Pelican case, with a warranty card, and polishing cloth.
