Hydroscaph H1 Metal Bracelet Now Available
Now out since December 2014!
The CLERC Hydroscaph H1 now sports metal as a bracelet option in addition to vulcanized rubber and alligator. The H1 references available with a metal bracelet option include the H1-1.B.1 (gray dial, white hands and markers), the H1-1.B.3 (blue dial, blue hands and markers), and the H1-1.B.5 (black dial, red hands and markers).
The Hydroscaph H1 Chronometer is an unmistakably adrenalin-rush model that welcomes the line’s first ever metal bracelet this year. It is made of solid steel and specially developed by CLERC to provide unbeatable comfort. Merging seamlessly into the case, it acts like an extension of the famous CLERC expandable lugs – designed to adapt to any wrist shape or size and featuring a unique structure ensuring remarkably flexible bracelet link adjustment.
The distinctive construction of this watchband accentuates the powerful style of the CLERC Hydroscaph, while providing fascinating visual effects from the alternating polished and satin-brushed finishes. It is particularly resistant and easily adjustable, even over a neoprene diving suit, and firmly secured to the wrist by a folding clasp complete with safety pushers.

Hydroscaph Close-Up: Exhibition Casebacks
Many watches have see-through case-back viewers. These crystal “windows” let you peek into the heart of the watch: its movement. Hydroscaphs also sport this really cool feature, but – as you’d expect – we did things a little bit different.
Our watches are designed and rated for great pressure at depth, so it wouldn’t have been wise to compromise their toughness with with a standard porthole. And since we don’t craft anything “standard” on the Hydroscaph, we gave it smaller super thick dual porthole viewers.
Deep sea diving machines must resist intense pressures when diving, so their hull windows tend to be smaller and thicker. The Hydroscaph is no different. Always tough, but always stylish.

Hydroscaph Close-Up: Hands and Dials
Did you know that Hydroscaph hands were (no pun) hand-painted and individually coated with Super-Luminova? Or that the indexes on the dial were also machined individually and hand-finished due to their intricate shape? If you look at a Hydroscaph index up close, you’ll notice the end is not simply cut straight down. Instead, it tapers at an angle towards the center of the dial. Because of this, it is not possible to mass-produce or simply “stamp” them out. And like many other parts and components of the Hydroscaph, it requires manual finishing from a highly-seasoned craftsman (or woman).
The hands are then painstakingly set one by one on top of the dial. Just another reason we like to say “from our hands and hearts to your wrists“.
