Doxa SUB 250T GMT: A New Era For The Legendary Dive Watch
The long-awaited moment has arrived for Doxa fans—introducing the Doxa SUB 250T GMT, the latest addition to the brand’s legendary dive watch lineup. Based on last year’s SUB 200T, this new model comes with slightly larger dimensions to accommodate the much-anticipated GMT complication, making it a must-have for travelers and dive enthusiasts alike.
A Legacy of GMT Functionality
While Doxa introduced a GMT function back in 2006 with the limited-edition SUB 750 GMT, that model was discontinued, making it a rare collector’s piece. Now, with the SUB 250T GMT, Doxa integrates this feature into its permanent collection, offering enthusiasts a robust and stylish timepiece available in nine striking color variants.
Case & Build: Classic Barrel-Shaped Design
The new Doxa SUB 250T GMT stays true to the brand’s signature barrel-shaped stainless steel case, measuring 40mm in diameter, 10.85mm in thickness, and 42.90mm lug-to-lug. It features an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, a unidirectional rotating bezel with a dual scale, and a screw-down crown positioned at 3 o’clock, engraved with the Doxa logo. Built for adventure, this model also includes a solid screw-down case back and offers 250 meters of water resistance—50 meters more than the standard SUB 200T.
Vibrant Dial Options & Functional GMT Display
Doxa continues its tradition of bold and vibrant dials with the SUB 250T GMT, offering a choice of Professional (orange), Searambler (silver), Sharkhunter (black), Caribbean (navy blue), Divingstar (yellow), Aquamarine (turquoise), Whitepearl (white), and Sea Emerald (green). Additionally, the new Sharkhunter Vintage edition in gradient brown joins the collection.
The dial layout maintains the collection’s standard design, featuring printed indexes along the edges filled with Super-LumiNova for enhanced visibility. At the center, the oversized minute hand, hour hand, and skeletonized GMT hand stand out for easy readability. A date window positioned next to the crown is complemented by a bi-color 24-hour rehaut, working in harmony with the GMT hand to track a second time zone.
The Sharkhunter Vintage variant differs slightly from the rest, as it includes a thin arrow-shaped GMT hand with a red tip and “Old Radium” Super-LumiNova. Meanwhile, the Sea Emerald edition receives a subtle update, replacing the previous gilt accents of the SUB 200T with blackened accents for a modern aesthetic.
Swiss Precision: Sellita SW330-2 Movement
Powering the Doxa SUB 250T GMT is the Swiss-made Sellita SW330-2 Elaboré grade automatic movement. This reliable caliber operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (VPH) and provides a power reserve of up to 50 hours, ensuring accurate timekeeping for extended travel or underwater adventures.
Strap Options & Pricing
Doxa offers the SUB 250T GMT with two strap options. The first is the classic stainless steel beads-of-rice bracelet, which delivers a vintage appeal and a secure fit. The second option is an FKM rubber strap that matches the dial color, providing comfort and durability for aquatic environments. Both options come equipped with a folding clasp featuring a micro-adjustment system. The watch is priced at €2,550 on the rubber strap and €2,590 on the steel bracelet.
Final Thoughts: The Ultimate Adventure Watch
With its vintage-inspired design, GMT functionality, and bold color choices, the Doxa SUB 250T GMT is the perfect companion for travelers and divers alike. Its Swiss automatic movement, robust 250m water resistance, and versatile strap options make it a standout addition to the brand’s lineup.
