In the modern watchmaking landscape we have a good number of micro brands that appear every year, but ESKA is one of those brands that unfortunately disappeared following the quartz crisis in the 80s and which returned to the watchmaking scene recently. And that's what I liked most about this brand relaunched by two Lyonnais recently. Having had many divers in the past, what immediately excited me was the history and inspiration behind its elder, the Amphibian 600, plus this limited edition version with this red dial that fades in its center from a blood red to black edges finally convinced me. This enormous reverse bezel topped with a sapphire crystal further increases this depth effect initiated by the gradient of the dial. A detail that we don't see every day and that I wanted to have in my collection is the fact of having a so-called sandwich dial and it's done with this example, it makes this dial come alive, these small cutouts, don't you think? To finish Eska does not deliver the watch to you with a single bracelet but rather with 3 bracelets which are a steel type laderband, an ultra comfortable red rubber as well as a simple but effective black nato all mounted on quick pumps facilitating the change of the bracelets and therefore the look of this watch. Moreover the look that this watch gives off is special indeed in 10 years of collections it is the first watch that arouses so much attraction and questions from those around me and people on a daily basis it surprises with its reverse bezel and its red gradient dial. It is fun but faithful to its origins.
