When it comes to rugged reliability, style, and function, the MINUS-8 Diver 1T Solar Watch (£277) ticks all the right boxes—and does so powered by the ultimate energy source: the sun. With a design that blends modern aesthetics with top-notch dive features, this watch is ready to take on everything from casual weekend escapades to deep-sea adventures, and it does it all in style.
Crafted from corrosion-resistant titanium, the Diver 1T Solar is as tough as they come. Titanium isn’t just a cool word—it makes this timepiece both lightweight and incredibly durable, ensuring it’s ready for whatever you throw at it. Whether you’re swimming in the sea or hiking up a mountain, you’ll barely notice this feather-light watch on your wrist, but you’ll be glad it’s there when you need it. With its super sleek flat sapphire crystal—featuring an internal anti-reflective coating—the Diver 1T Solar guarantees you won’t be squinting to tell the time, even on the brightest days.
This sun-powered beauty is powered by a Seiko Epson AS-01 movement, giving you ultimate reliability without the hassle of constantly replacing batteries. Just 5 hours of sunlight provides you with a full 4-month power reserve—perfect for those spontaneous trips where a dead battery simply isn’t an option. Plus, the unidirectional rotating dive timing bezel, screw-down crown, and water resistance up to 200 meters mean you can venture below the waves with confidence. If deep-sea diving isn’t your thing, it’s equally at home by the pool or exploring your favourite trails.
Standing out in this watch is its straightforward, functional design—the classic unidirectional bezel, a 42mm case size that hits the sweet spot for most wrists, and a 4 o’clock screw-down crown that makes wearing it more comfortable, especially during outdoor activities. With its titanium bracelet and stainless steel clasp, the Diver 1T Solar maintains a low profile while staying ready for the next adventure.
With bold Super-LumiNova C1 + Orange lume, you’ll be able to tell the time no matter where you find yourself—above or below the surface, at noon or midnight. The Diver 1T Solar is a genuine workhorse built for everyday wear—it’s functional, reliable, and versatile, making it a go-to for those who want a watch that’s ready to handle anything life throws at it, all while looking sharp and staying effortlessly cool.
