Swiss Diver with a historic movement
All models are powered by a Calibre AS-1895 movement, built by A. Schild S.A. in 1960. The movement was then safely packed away in the attic of a collector in the Swiss Jura for several decades. DuBois et fils has overhauled these robust movements, breathing new life into this treasure with the DBF007.
DBF007: Not what you’d expect
Diver watches have been among the most popular models in the watchmaking industry for decades. Swiss watch brands are also well known for regularly producing these models with great success.
The DBF007 from DuBois et fils puts a new spin on the classic Diver watch. While this timepiece meets all the usual requirements, our version has its own distinct character. It impresses with its mechanism, appearance, history, and how it feels on the wrist. In short, this collection is unmistakable.
Read on for five little facts about the DBF007 that pack a big punch:
- Historic Swiss movements from Felsa SA set the pace.
- These meticulously hand-assembled, one-off pieces are all marked with a personal, limited-edition number.
- High-quality materials and precise craftsmanship down to the finest detail inspire confidence.
- The design is compelling and striking.
- It is robust and reliable.
We have created a Swiss luxury watch that impresses not only with its technology, but also with its history, craftsmanship and character.
Craftsmanship right through to packaging
DuBois et fils uses hides from Swiss red deer, chamois and roe deer, which would usually be discarded after the hunt, and tans and processes them using traditional methods. Reusing this natural material results in unique leather cases that demonstrate a conscientious approach to valuable resources.
Every DBF007 comes with one such handcrafted leather case. Each piece is one of a kind.
