Reaching back to it's roots, Squale has re-introduced a hit from the past, the Super-Squale. Positioned to be the ultimate skin diver, it boasts a 38mm case, sapphire crystal, true no-date Swiss automatic movement and weighs in at just 75 grams. With or without a wet-suit, is it the diver for you?


Thank you for watching!

Like the vintage grey/silver a lot. But not interested in a 38mm watch. Probably be very successful though for the Squale crowd.

The 20 atmos is a nice case. The 20, 50 and 60 atmos cases really set Squale apart as opposed to the more homage looking watches.
