100ATM Professional Diver’s Watch Kit

Build Your Own Timepiece – Engineered for the Extreme

This professional-grade 100ATM kit gives you the foundation to build a rugged dive watch capable of withstanding the harshest conditions on land or under the sea. Designed for serious divers—including those using mixed gases at extreme depths—it features an ultra-durable stainless steel case, sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel, and a helium escape valve.

Whether you're customizing for personal use or assembling for a client, this kit combines military-grade durability with refined functionality. Just add your choice of movement, and you're ready to go.

🌊 Why This Kit Stands Out

💪 Extreme Performance

This isn’t just a watch case—it’s a mission-ready platform. With 100ATM (1000m/3280ft) water resistance, a shatterproof sapphire crystal, and a grippy ceramic bezel that performs even in freezing temperatures, every element is tailored for durability.

Unlike typical military diver watches with 20mm straps, this one includes a wider 24mm NATO strap, offering superior stability and comfort in high-stress environments.


🛠 Helium Escape Valve – A Deep Dive Essential

Helium molecules are tiny—so tiny they can sneak past most seals during saturation dives. When this happens, internal pressure builds, putting the crystal and case at risk. This kit's automatic helium escape valve vents that pressure during decompression, protecting your watch from damage.

🧪 Why Helium Matters in Diving

Helium is used in deep diving to avoid nitrogen narcosis. But it also requires careful handling—especially in pressurized environments using helium-oxygen mixes. A built-in helium valve is vital for maintaining both safety and the integrity of the watch.

💎 Why Sapphire Crystal?

Sapphire is the toughest material used in watchmaking. Scratch-resistant, shatterproof, and thermally strengthened, it protects your dial in ways mineral glass never could. Over 90% of watch damage from cracked crystals occurs in models with mineral glass—not sapphire.
