Breil launches the new Manta Diver Automatic 1000m, a professional diver's watch produced in a limited edition of 424 pieces.
The Manta collection of Breil hosts the new Diver Automatic 1000m. This diver model is inspired by the reference 51654.24, launched by Breil in the late 1970s, and is made of a limited edition of 424 numbered pieces on the case back.
So, 55 years after the launch of the first Manta, Breil continues to refine this iconic collection, combining high performance with distinctive design. The Manta Diver Automatic 1000m is a professional diver's watch with a helium gas escape valve (located at 9 o'clock on the case middle) during ascent. Water resistance is guaranteed down to a depth of 1,000 metres, but has been successfully tested to 125 atmospheres (1,250 metres).
The 44 mm titanium case has an IP black treatment with bilux effect, which enriches the surface with a bright contrast between glossy and satin surfaces. The watch uses the Miyota 9015 automatic movement (28,800 vibrations per hour), which guarantees a 42-hour power reserve. The unidirectional rotating bezel in titanium has an aluminium ring with a luminescent diving time scale. A Sapphire crystal with magnifying glass at the date window protects the dial.
Breil Manta Diver Automatic 1000m: professional diver
This new Manta was tested by CNes divers.
The new Manta took its official 'first dive' on the wrist of the CNeS (State Police Nautical and Diving Centre) divers, during an exercise in Porto Venere. The CNeSbased in La Spezia, is a body of excellence of the State Policewhich operates under the Directorate of Special Departments. This collaboration with an outstanding organisation of the State Police confirms the reliability of the watch in real operational scenarios.
The black PU strap integrates an NFC (Near Field Communication) tag, a technology that allows instant verification of the watch's authenticity. This feature also offers access to exclusive content via a compatible smartphone, allowing you to discover technical details and insights into the Manta collection.
The new Breil Manta Automatic Diver 1000m comes with an additional second strap
Inside the original case is the additional nylon strap, as well as the replacement tool.
To increase its versatility, the Breil Manta Diver Automatic 1000m comes with a second nylon strap with a pin buckle, ideal for everyday use outside the aquatic environment. Instead of the classic packaging, the watch comes with a dust- and water-resistant hermetic case, inspired by the technical cases of professional watches.
