Now in 2019, Dievas found the right time to revamp and improve their collections while keeping their classic DNA. We now like to introduce to you the all-new Marine Mojave that fits today's customer perception of how a reliable timepiece should wear and built.
Dievas Marine Mojave |
Springing from extremely positive reception the original Dievas Vortex received, Dievas Watch Company went on the exact route of cumulating the highest engineering specifications and product design to present the latest Marine Mojave, a term synonymous with fluid dynamics consummating an integral part of the field (land) and dive watch design.
Allowances made for casual onlookers exonerated for assuming any Dievas timepieces, like the multi-purpose Marine Movaje, to be merely another dive watch. There's much more than meets the eye. As to how they started, the Marine Mojave been a watch designed as a precise timekeeping instrument for currently active military, security, and rescue personnel, overbuilt to withstand harsh conditions on land, sea, and air. Further this edition based heavily on the horizon of the Mojave desert located in North America, as illustrated lustfully on its dial. It measures at 41mm wide from top bezel, while 39mm at its mid-case section, and from the bottom to the top again at remarkable 13mm in height. What's more, the angular lugs, which is a signature for Dievas collection, only has a lug to lug distance of 46.5mm, resulting in exceptional wearability for wearers of any wrist size.
Focus primarily on attention to detail; the watch powered by ETA's automatic caliber, ETA2824-2, operating at 28,800 BPH (4 hertz) with hacking and hand winding capabilities. It has 25 jewels with a power reserve of 40 hours.
3 Dimensional hour markers in signature fonts |
The watch case made from 316L stainless steel, and for the first time, it gets the polished treatment while still living up to stay coherent with the tactical tool watch theme. The whole case got the intricate satin brushed-polishing with gloss finished on its bevelings at the lugs, setting off a nice seamless contrast. This entire process is fabricated entirely in Germany, utilizing modern advanced CNC technology. The most "Teutonic" and militaristic vibe unsurpassed superlative quality portrayed by the well defined, clean lines and perfectly finished edges throughout the case. It adheres to a compromise between the demands of traditional watch aficionados and the military man on his specialized job. The case is treated with a special coating to provide scratch-protection and extra corrosion resistance.
Let us spend a little more time on its structure. Complying with the designation of a robust utility watch, the all-new Marine Mojave comes with a sturdy, precise, and upgraded 120-click ceramic timing bezel with 30 sized-grooves for easy manipulation. The clear-cut proportions show both the strength and power the case is an expression of. The neat chamfers, sleek lines, and flat surfaces seamlessly exhibit minimal design, giving the Marine Mojave its original looks like its predecessors. The details on the lugs are significant, like, for instance, the additional bevel lines between the top and side profile, adding many dimensions for the wearer.
Another well-built feature goes to the increased water-resistance to withstand a professional dive watch worthy 500 meters. Adding an automatic Helium Release Valve (HEV) just in case the task ahead requires one to undergo saturation diving.
Signature "Destro" lefty crown placement |
Is anyone familiar with the watch term for" Destro"? Well, here is a solid example is where a double O-ring 6mm screw-down crown occupies the lower left-hand corner for easy time adjustments instead of the usual right side placement. The advantage is that a destro watch (crown on the left side) arguably more comfortable where the crown is placed away from the wrist when strapped on the left wrist.
The surface is topped off with a thick blemish-free swiss grade flat sapphire crystal treated with military grade anti-reflective coating for improved readability. Every Marine Mojave comes with a serial number individually engraved onto the case back with the watch's essential information.
Undoubtedly, the desert-spec dial accentuates the military field theme of the Dievas Marine Mojave. Following its predecessor's early design DNA, it decided that since the watch will be preferred and put to use as an accurate timing instrument by military personnel, only a less unorthodox, no-nonsense, uncluttered, and highly legible design is deem fitting. As such, large, oversized Arabic alphabets in Dievas font (seen previously on their Reaper) at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock, set with double-digit minute markers applied meticulously on the rehaut every 5-minute increments, all done for the first time in a warm sand colour tone. Further, stripes hour markers applied to enhance the legibility even more. With all that said, all the markers are raised from its cold grey dial that tributes the sunset, cool night scenery of the Mojave dessert, while ultimately to give a certain depth for the wearer to admire.
SuperLuminova for Superb Glow In Dark |
Quality vintage military watch style watch hands are chosen to complete the look. What's new to the Marine Mojave is the additional date placed in-between 4 and 5 without cutting the hour markers. Dievas made an effort to re-design the date disk to have it horizontally aligned at that position, while the date fonts match the rest of the dial. The double line "Dievas Automatic" logo at the top is well-thought-out as to balance with the clean "Marine 500m" text at the bottom of the dial. This results in an upsurge in utilitarian on this hitherto German robust designed, thorough professional tool watch.
Copious amounts of Swiss super luminous applied over all the minute markers, bezel markers, and the aviation handset, enabling them to glow to a consistent bright blue lume in low light conditions.
Accompanying the watch is a military olive green calf leather strap with subtle texture on the surface. Made in Germany like the watch, the leather strap complements the whole rugged tool watch look, paired harmoniously, the multi-finished tang buckle specifically designed by Dievas with angled bevel lines on its sides to match the shape of the Marine case. A detail that many watch brands have left out.
Matching Dievas Buckle In Similar Design Language |
In all, the latest Marine Mojave caters to watch enthusiasts who have clear conscious of looking out to acquire an indubitably German tool watch that wears so well in today's time. The additional features and details of the new Marine Mojave is certainly welcome over its predecessor. From the introductory of a multi-finished utilitarian look while manages a warm military aesthetic with additional scratch-resistant coating throughout the 500m case, with the ceramic bezel to its customized tang buckle, the amount of effort and thought that Dievas consistently puts into their watches can be seen and believed by its wearers until today.
