Iconic watch art prints. Made in Switzerland, lifetime guarantee

The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

I'm absolutely captivated by the Eska Amphibian 250 Green Turtle. The gradient smoky green dial is stunning, with beautiful reflections depending on the light. It's an extremely versatile watch, perfect for everyday wear. On its steel bracelet, it's comfortable, well-balanced, and works equally well in casual or dressier settings. A watch I wear every day without ever getting tired of it.

Eska Amphibian 250 Green Turtle

Eska is a watch brand founded in 1918 in Switzerland by Sylvan Kocher (S. Kocher &amp; Co.), with the name echoing the pronunciation of the initials &ldquo;S-K&rdquo; (es-ka). Born from dress watchmaking with clear legibility, the brand became known for guilloch&eacute; or grained dials, elegant small-to-mid sizes and, later, for a mythical diver that is now almost impossible to find. After going dormant at the end of the 20th century, Eska was revived in the mid-2020s with a stated intent to honor its historic pieces while adapting them for contemporary wear.
<h3>From &ldquo;S. Kocher &amp; Co.&rdquo; to Eska: Selzach, then Grenchen (1918&ndash;1937)</h3>
In the aftermath of World War I, S. Kocher &amp; Co. was established in Selzach before relocating to Grenchen in the 1930s to support international growth; this geographic shift accompanied the ambition to evolve from a small workshop into a brand geared to export. The early decades focused on dress watches with three hands, sometimes embellished with simple calendars or jumping-hour &ldquo;digital&rdquo; displays, set in round or shaped cases in steel, plated metals or gold.
Already in the interwar period, Eska watches circulated beyond Switzerland, notably in the Americas and Brazil, gaining a reputation for thin, well-finished and easy-to-read pieces; the brand&rsquo;s identity was rooted more in restrained execution than in mechanical one-upmanship. That approach &mdash; compact proportions, quietly worked dials &mdash; runs through the 1940s and 1950s output.
<h3>Royce as the export sibling and the quartz-era headwinds</h3>
From the post-war years onward, the company developed a second label, Royce, aimed primarily at export markets (notably the United States), offering watches close in spirit but signed differently depending on distribution; this dual-signature strategy broadened reach without diluting the aesthetic DNA. In the 1960s, use of the Royce name intensified, and Eska-signed pieces became scarcer in some regions.
The 1970s&ndash;1980s upended the ecosystem with the rise of quartz movements, which destabilized many historic, smaller-scale makers; Eska scaled back and ultimately faded as an active brand by the late 1980s. This retreat explains the strong presence of vintage pieces on today&rsquo;s secondary market, often in period-correct diameters (34&ndash;37 mm) and prized for well-preserved dials.
<h3>&ldquo;Amphibian 600&rdquo;: a rare diver, between archives and legend</h3>
Around 1959&ndash;1960, a now-mythical reference appeared: the Eska Amphibian 600, a diver with a broad acrylic bezel and a very distinctive personality; its patchy iconography fuels both collectors&rsquo; interest and a dose of mystery. Some sources suggest it on the wrists of personalities or military units, and specialists highlight the extreme rarity of intact examples &mdash; some even speak of only a handful known, which gives it a near &ldquo;ghost&rdquo; aura.
<ul>
<li>Eska Amphibian 600 &mdash; late-1950s diver, inspired by the first civil dive watches, oversized bezel, maximum legibility.</li>
<li>Eska Calendar &mdash; dress watches with day/date/month indications, often in thin cases and textured dials.</li>
<li>Eska Digital (jump hour) &mdash; window-display pieces typical of the 1930s&ndash;1950s, blending whimsy with restraint.</li>
<li>Eska Chronograph &mdash; sporadic productions with telemeter/spiral scales, instrument-like in spirit.</li>
</ul>
The place of the Eska Amphibian 600 in dive-watch history owes as much to its singular design as to the difficulty of documenting its distribution with certainty; for a buyer, this means paying close attention to dial, bezel and case coherence. On such pieces, clear provenance and original components weigh heavily in valuation.
<h3>Contemporary revival (2024&ndash;2025): Amphibian 250 and Heritage Chronograph</h3>
In 2024, two enthusiasts brought the brand back with the Eska Amphibian 250, a modern, more attainable take on the historic diver, funded via Kickstarter and assembled in France; the brief combines vintage cues (case lines, bezel, drilled lugs) with present-day usability. The campaign drew notable interest among enthusiasts, validating the wager of awakening a &ldquo;sleeping beauty&rdquo; with tact.
In 2025, the brand broadened the project with a heritage-styled chronograph, the Eska Heritage Chronograph, at roughly 38 mm with drilled lugs and pump pushers, channeling a 1960s sport-chic spirit; the intent is to stick to wearable proportions and clear reading without sacrificing the pleasure of details. These releases anchor the revival in an unabashed &ldquo;neo-vintage&rdquo; register that remains faithful to the original identity.
<h3>Pricing, distribution and production: a measured stance</h3>
The current strategy favors direct-to-consumer sales and a handful of specialized partners, with limited series by colorway and tightly managed runs; price levels span early-bird preorder tickets to controlled retail for the segment. Dial and bezel variations follow one another as batches progress, allowing collectors to pick distinctive configurations.
Assembly in France, straps from renowned artisans and local-leaning logistics are part of the talking points; this footprint helps with after-sales service and parts availability. Communications remain educational and community-oriented, with appearances at watch events and in a few showrooms.
<h3>Selection advice: authentic vintage or ready-to-wear neo-vintage</h3>
For a historical piece, target an example whose dial, bezel and hands align (fonts, patina, lengths) and whose case still shows crisp edges; on an Amphibian, overall coherence of the insert and the watch&rsquo;s stance trumps details you&rsquo;ll never see on the wrist. Period paperwork and recent service by a competent workshop are valuable pluses.
<ul>
<li>If you love dive-watch history, an original Eska Amphibian 600 is a collector&rsquo;s rarity that&rsquo;s demanding to source and authenticate.</li>
<li>If you want a vintage-looking &ldquo;daily diver&rdquo; with modern comfort, the Eska Amphibian 250 is a compelling compromise.</li>
<li>If you prefer 1960s racing-chic styling, the Eska Heritage Chronograph aims for clear legibility and balanced wear.</li>
</ul>
On the wrist, keep overall height, lug-to-lug length and strap comfort (beads-of-rice steel, tropic rubber, leather) in mind; fit to your wrist and lifestyle matters more than chasing spec sheet superlatives. For a &ldquo;smart buy,&rdquo; compare variants in person when possible and prioritize perceived execution quality.
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
Eska speaks to enthusiasts who value readable design, compact proportions and fidelity to historic codes without pastiche. Between rare vintage pieces and well-thought-out neo-vintage re-editions, the brand offers a pleasant doorway into evocative, wearable, endearing watchmaking. To choose among models, start with your use case (daily dress, weekend, thematic collection), then judge the dial-case-bracelet balance.

Hi,
Today I share with you my opinion on the Eska Red Viper. This is a variation of the Amphibian 250 in 136 copies, a watch unveiled a little before Christmas 2024. I hesitated for a long time to take the plunge, having a large number of watches at the top of my list. The trigger was this very beautiful red dial, something that I do not have in my collection.

In the end, no regrets, it is a watch with a nice presence, very pleasant, a complete packaging: the black nato, the red tropic and the famous Ladder bracelet.

Specifications:

Diameter 40mm
Thickness 13.5mm
Solid caseback
SW200 movement
Double domed sapphire crystal

Very easy to change the bracelet thanks to the quick pumps, be careful when removing the links on the Ladder bracelet, you need to have the right tools because driving out the pins can take time and be quite difficult.
Otherwise, what we remember the most is really this dial, a very beautiful red, but not a bright red.

In short, a beautiful diver, a toolwatch that deserves to spend its time outside.

Very nice variation

When I was looking for a nice watch in early 2024, I stumbled upon the Kickstarter for this watch, or rather, the first model with a Seiko movement. I had already fallen in love with the Serica 6190 and had given up on the idea of owning this watch.

But after the release of the white, then the red, and then the green versions, I couldn't resist the urge to own it.
So, objectively speaking, the watch is absolutely magnificent. It was sold with a green Rubstrap strap, which I quickly removed for the Bonklip of my 6190.
It sits perfectly on my 16.5 cm wrist. Admittedly, it's less comfortable than the Serica, but it's a good, reliable option for everyday wear.

With its now reliable and robust Swiss movement.

I would have liked, objectively speaking, a diameter of 38 or 39 mm instead of 40 mm, and a slightly thinner profile. Apart from that, I love it.
A beautiful piece for a true enthusiast.

Eska amphibian 250 green turtle 

Today, I'd like to introduce you to the latest addition to my collection: the Eska Amphibian 250 White Shark.

It's a true steel diver's watch, very well proportioned: 40 mm in diameter and 13.5 mm thick, with a lug-to-lug measurement of 46 mm. It houses a Sellita SW200 movement (38-hour power reserve) and lives up to its name: "Amphibian 250" directly refers to its 250-meter water resistance.

This watch complements a collection already featured on the platform, which includes a Kurono Tokyo Grand Hagane (more of a dress watch) and an Atelier Wen Perception (YING) (more of a sports watch). This is clearly a tool watch designed for use. To be honest, it hasn't yet explored the ocean depths… but I wear it very often every day, precisely because it does the job perfectly: robust, legible, and incredibly versatile.

I fitted it with a The Lodge strap (as seen in the photos), because the original tropical strap is unfortunately a bit too big for my wrist, and I don't really appreciate the comfort of NATO straps. Anyway, like many enthusiasts, you choose a watch first for its looks, then you customize it with the strap that suits you.

What I particularly like about this White Shark:

• The luminescence, which is really pronounced (much more so than on my Atelier Wen).

• The precision and reliability of the Swiss movement, which are beyond question.

• The white dial, quite rare on a dive watch at this price point, and a welcome change from classic black dials.

• The reverse-curved bezel, which often intrigues and sparks questions when I wear it at watch events.

As for the finish, for the price, it's frankly excellent: a beautiful alternation between brushed on the dial and polished on the case, with a solid screw-down case back. I also appreciate its slightly vintage feel: the sandwich dial, the oversized indices, and that nice detail on the seconds hand with the luminescent lollipop dot, which is super easy to spot in night vision.

In short, an appealing diver's watch, well-designed and very wearable for everyday use, and an excellent surprise in this price range.

An endearing diver, ultra-versatile for everyday use

After having fallen for the first version of the Amphibian 250 Black Sea during the Kickstarter campaign, new acquisition of this model in the Red Viper version limited to 136 copies.

A few developments including a major one, the caliber goes from Seiko NH-38 to Sellita SW-200.

Thank you Eska for this long-awaited update that will retain the loyalty of customers who trusted you at the launch of the first series.

Pretty smoked red dial and slightly lightened bezel make this model super endearing, with a very original vintage style, particularly mounted on the brand's new metal bracelet.

Looking forward to a new launch to continue the adventure with Eska...



ESKA AMPHIBIAN 250 RED VIPER

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.

The brand Serica was created in 2019 by J&eacute;r&ocirc;me Burget and 3 friends in Paris, France. The name Serica comes from a lost region at the end of the Far East that the Greeks and Romans named it like this. This place echoes the genesis of the brand, which aims to design quality mechanical watches in a neo-retro style, ready to follow you to the ends of the world.
The range includes watches such as the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/4512">Serica 4512</a>, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/5303">Serica 5303</a> and the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/8315">Serica 8315</a>. One of the particularities of this brand is that its name does not appear anywhere on the dial, in order to encourage the enthusiast to buy a design, finishes and proportions, and not just a name. In July 2023, Serica launched the Serica 5303 COSC, a chronometer version certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute.
The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190">Serica 6190</a> surfing on the bases of the brand's first reference, the Serica 4512. This 6190 follows the stylistic codes of the brand, lyre lugs, a choice of different dials and the possibility of choosing the position of the crown at 3 o'clock or at &ldquo;Destro&rdquo; mode at 9 o&rsquo;clock. This Serica 6190 is powered with the Soprod M100 caliber COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Certification) certified, like the current productions of the other 5303 and 8315 models.&nbsp;
Since November 21, 2024, Serica has been offering a very daring new collection... A dress watch off the beaten track called &ldquo;Parade&rdquo; under the reference 1174. These 4 figures, like all other Serica references, offer a symbolism derived from the golden number or divine proportions whose ratio between length and width is 1.174... A novelty offered for pre-order at &euro; 1,490 for one delivery planned for March 2025...
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Serica watch cost?</h2>
The prices of Serica watches change and differ depending on the model. Most cost between &euro; 990 and &euro; 1,890 depending on the models and finishes. The brand's GMT model, Serica 8315 GMT Chronometer costs &euro; 1,890 while the latest model launched by Serica, the reference&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190">6190</a> is offered to &euro; 990.

<hr>
Eska Amphibian 250 was launched in 2024 as a neo-vintage diver designed for real-life use: instant readability, a confident grip, and a stated water-resistance of 250 metres. The model is part of the relaunch of the Eska brand and plays a clear card: offering a dive watch with a highly recognisable style, a compact case, and a unidirectional bezel, ready to move from everyday life to the sea without hesitation. Depending on the versions, the watch has been offered with different automatic movement families (not communicated for certain batches), which makes the wearing experience and the overall &ldquo;price / proposition&rdquo; noticeably variable from one series to another.
<h3>Design &amp; readability: the model&rsquo;s identity</h3>
At first glance, the Amphibian 250 is recognised by a rare graphic signature: four oversized cardinal markers that structure the dial and give you a permanent visual &ldquo;north&rdquo;. This simple idea changes everything in daily life: you read the time quickly, without hunting for an index, even when light drops or when the watch isn&rsquo;t perfectly straight. The result is deliberately utilitarian, yet never austere, because the geometry of the markers and the shape of the hands create constant relief. The whole effect relies on a compass-oriented way of reading, more instinctive than &ldquo;horological&rdquo;, and that is precisely what gives the watch its character.
The dial is built as a &ldquo;sandwich&rdquo;, bringing depth without turning into a showpiece. The cut-outs for the indexes and cardinal points create crisp shadows, and the overall look changes with the angle: flat on, it&rsquo;s clear; from the side, you perceive an architecture. This approach is consistent with the diver spirit: information is prioritised, surfaces are legible, and contrasts stay clean. The coloured versions (smoked, gradients, accents) do not aim for empty provocation: they mainly serve to remind you that the watch is not only a tool, but also a piece of style that stands its ground.
The unidirectional bezel contributes to the identity of the watch as much as to its function. It frames the dial without crushing it, and its ergonomics are designed to be grabbed with wet fingers or in a hurry. In use, you get the feeling the watch was designed &ldquo;in blocks&rdquo;: a highly readable dial, a decisive bezel, a compact case. Together they form a coherent silhouette, avoiding unnecessary decorative tricks and favouring a sense of calm sturdiness.
<h3>Case, strap and everyday comfort</h3>
The case sits in a modern comfort zone: 40mm in diameter, a contained lug-to-lug length, and a thickness that remains within contemporary automatic diver standards. On the wrist, the watch settles without &ldquo;spilling over&rdquo;, which makes it wearable on many wrist sizes, including those who avoid overly bulky divers. The appeal is that the Amphibian 250 feels dense without heaviness, thanks to a compact size that is well controlled and a strong visual presence at the centre of the dial.
A screw-down crown and the stated 25-ATM rating place the watch in a true versatility logic: shower, pool, sea, and everyday activities without worry. The unidirectional bezel supports classic simple timing (stops, cooking, parking), and its grip is a major comfort factor: it&rsquo;s the most used interface, so it must be reliable. This &ldquo;tool&rdquo; dimension is also felt in the accessories often supplied: tropic straps, a two-piece NATO, sometimes an additional strap. That encourages easy style rotation rather than a single fixed look.
Comfort depends heavily on the strap you choose. A soft tropic gives a sporty, light feeling, ideal in summer; a NATO reinforces the adventurous spirit and reassures some wearers (security if a spring bar takes a hit); a steel bracelet changes the sense of weight and &ldquo;dresses up&rdquo; the watch for the office. The Amphibian 250 has the advantage of accepting these variations without losing its identity, because the dial remains the main event. In practice, it&rsquo;s a watch that can be worn under a cuff, yet stays readable at a glance, which creates genuine everyday usability.
<h3>Movement: architecture, performance and service</h3>
Depending on the series, the Amphibian 250 has been offered with automatic movements from different families. Some early pieces were paired with an NH-type calibre (three hands, robust, widely distributed), while other versions moved to a Swiss SW200-type movement. For the wearer, this isn&rsquo;t a minor detail: it affects winding feel, expected precision, frequency, and the service approach. The main stake is having a movement that is easy to maintain, with decent parts availability and straightforward support from a watchmaker.
In real use, these calibres sit within a &ldquo;reliable and familiar&rdquo; philosophy rather than a search for rarity. This is a diver meant to be worn often: hacking seconds, automatic winding, classic setting, and a power reserve that typically covers day and night without stress. The best advice is to treat the Amphibian 250 as a routine object: if it&rsquo;s worn regularly, it stabilises; if it rotates with other watches, you accept setting it again. Over the long run, what matters most is service aligned with your usage (salt water, knocks, wear frequency), rather than chasing &ldquo;paper&rdquo; performance.
<h3>Chronological landmarks and main models</h3>
(2024) Eska Amphibian 250 Black Sea Kickstarter :
This first series laid the foundations of the Amphibian identity: readable dial, neo-vintage spirit, and a proposition designed to attract enthusiasts who want a diver with a different silhouette than the usual copies. The Black Sea was often described as the entry point into modern Eska, with a very clear &ldquo;tool&rdquo; coherence: unidirectional bezel, screw-down crown, usage-oriented accessories, and a visual personality centred on the cardinal points. It is also tied to a limited-series logic, which strengthened the idea of a &ldquo;foundational&rdquo; launch and a community of early adopters.
(2024) Eska Amphibian 250 Black Shark :
The Black Shark variation carries the range&rsquo;s DNA with a dark dial and a more &ldquo;tactical&rdquo; presence, while keeping the essential codes: sandwich construction, oversized cardinal markers, and strong readability in imperfect conditions. On the wrist, it&rsquo;s often the easiest version to integrate into a rotation, because it stays discreet with darker outfits, yet keeps visible relief thanks to the dial&rsquo;s volumes. It also embodies the idea of a more &ldquo;permanent&rdquo; Amphibian, intended to remain available beyond the initial launch window.
(2024) Eska Amphibian 250 White Shark :
The White Shark marked an important step: a brighter, more &ldquo;summer&rdquo; version that does not betray the diver spirit. The visual contrast changes the experience: the watch feels more open, the dial breathes, and the bezel frames the whole with a lighter feeling. In real situations, it&rsquo;s an Amphibian that works especially well on a light tropic strap, because it keeps a functional look without turning into forced &ldquo;sport chic&rdquo;. It is also the version often associated with the idea of a long-term collection, meant to install the range for the future.&nbsp;
(2024) Eska Amphibian 250 Red Viper :
With the Red Viper, the Amphibian range embraced a more expressive dimension: a smoked red dial, stronger accents, and immediate visual pleasure. It&rsquo;s not a &ldquo;gimmick colour&rdquo;: the Red Viper plays with depth, like tinted glass, and it shifts the mood of the watch depending on the light. This limited edition strengthened the idea that the Amphibian platform could be a playground for aesthetic exploration without sacrificing readability and real-world logic. It is often chosen by wearers who want a different diver, but not a fragile or precious one.&nbsp;
(2025) Eska Amphibian 250 Green Turtle :
The Green Turtle continues the limited-edition approach by leaning into smoked green, with a more &ldquo;natural&rdquo; depth and a less flamboyant presence than red. The dial is designed to evoke the sea and its nuances: darker on the edges, lighter at the centre, which creates a feeling of depth and highlights the cardinal markers. This version also popularised the idea of a symbolic number tied to depth, reinforcing the storytelling around water-resistance. It&rsquo;s an Amphibian that appeals to those who want colour without going flashy.
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
The Amphibian 250 is for those who want a recognisable diver designed to be worn often, not only admired. Its appeal lies in instant readability, a compact silhouette, and a visual personality that is rare in this price bracket. Choosing between variants mostly depends on your relationship with colour and discretion: black for versatility, light for summer clarity, smoked for character. To refine, look at what truly matters: strap comfort, bezel handling, and day-to-day feel. To go further, explore Dialicious customer reviews.
