  • Helson LE "Gauge"

    A limited edition (25 pieces) from Peter Helson.

    This one is pretty unique, inspired from an old depth gauge watch which is for sure not everybodys cup of tea.

    Some specs:

    47mm diameter monobloc titanium case, bronze bezel on a 5.5mm thick vintage domed hand cut massive sapphire crystal. rated to 3500m, don't crack under pressure!

    Movement: ETA 2824-2

              Wow, that is a really nice piece.
              You should take a wrist shot where you can see the depth of it.

                  I'm sure there are more unique case designs coming from Peter Helson in the near future. I really appreciate Peter going through all the effort to produce 25 pieces of the Gauge.

                      pictures as requested.

                      as the whole case is of monobloc construction (to withstand the 3500m depth rating), there is no actual caseback and no complicated inscription, just no. 25 to denote the actual watch production number.

                        Many thanks for the kind pictures...very nice piece of tool watch...for me it is the defination of a true blue diving watch!

                        It fit your wrist very nicely....conform to it well...the strap is Isofrane?

                          the watch fits ok on the wrist but the unusually thick case+crystal (20mm) takes some getting used to.

                          the strap is rubber but the intention is to change to a thick leather or even a mesh strap!

                              Not sure how a stainless steel mesh will match the bronze case, but it's worth a try.
