The Aquadive 709/1 “Discosub” is an icon of dive history. The massive monocoque 50 mm case by Jenny with a 3 mm thick domed crystal provides water resistance to 1000 meters without the need for a helium escape valve. The dial is equally impressive with an eye-popping blue dial made of 3M Scotchlite that sparkles with an intense fire in low-light conditions.
