DESCRIPTION

The Sub-39 model was created to celebrate the sixty years of history of the Squale brand. Introduced in 2019, the anniversary model was available in a limited edition of just 150 examples. Today, the Sub-39 collection features a wide range of watches, all inspired by the past. The element that link all of them is the case, characterized by a diameter of 39 millimeters which becomes 40.3 millimeters if we consider the bezel protruding on the sides. All the other features, however, are different from one model to another, starting from the manufacturing technique of the dial up to the material of the bezel. The structure of the case was designed for the use of a particular glass, neither flat nor domed but box shaped. The structure of this glass is flat at the base, where it is recessed, and then continues with a slight curvature until it stops and becomes flat again for the entire surface where it covers the dial. This structure, typically used in the past for plexiglass glass, is reproduced here faithful to the original. The only difference compared to the past is the material with which it is made, namely sapphire, highly more resistant than plexiglass.
