Aquastar’s iconic diver returns with a limited edition in blue, a tribute to one of the world’s most quintessential dive watches from 1970
The new Benthos H1 blue Edition continues Aquastar’s earliest traditions of building innovative and ultra-capable tool watches that could cater to the needs of mariners, professional divers, and ocean conservationists. And while the original Benthos was known for its impressive depth resistance and unique center-mounted chronograph functionality, the H1 retains the marked capability and signature crown position of the Benthos but in a more streamlined and economical time-only format.

Description
The traditional Swiss tool watchmaker is announcing its tribute to one of the world’s most iconic dive watches ever made, and a flagship in the Aquastar archive: In winter 2024, Aquastar is introducing the Benthos Blue Edition H1 (Heritage Chapter 1) — a striking, 3-hand dive watch that retains the visual cues, capability and dimensions of the pioneering Benthos 500 from 1970, which was the world’s first dive watch achieving 500 meters of depth resistance without a monobloc case design. The mighty Benthos also enjoyed the distinction of being one of the few dive watches approved in the U.S. Navy diving manual throughout the 1970s.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
- Case: Identical dimensions and aesthetics of the original Benthos 500 from 1970: 42mm 904L Stainless steel (47mm lug-to-lug), crown at 2:00
- Movement: Swiss-made Swiss Sellita SW200 Elabore grade, hours, minutes, seconds
- Water Resistance: 500 meters, 1500 feet

Aquastar unveils its most prestigious dive watch to date, built around a newly developed center-mounted 60-minute chronograph calibre exclusive to Aquastar
For over fifty years, the Aquastar Benthos chronograph has remained the paragon of capability and dive watch collectability — a rarity in watchmaking both for its unique design and functionality, and its actual rarity, as surviving examples remain scarce and highly collectable. However, since the brand’s triumphant re-launch in 2020, the modern Aquastar catalog has been without this revered, and sought-after vintage icon, but it’s not without good reason: there have been no modern center-mounted chronograph movements commercially available for watchmakers to utilize. So in collaboration with La Joux-Perret, Aquastar rebuilt this key functionality exclusively for its debut in the Benthos 500 Founder’s Edition.
