Introducing The Doxa SUB 200T 39MM
Doxa is yet another brand listening to the public’s call for moderately sized watches and the answer has just arrived through the new Sub 200T collection which comes in a 39mm case and many colour options on the dial.
Despite its small size, anyone who thinks that the eternal diving watch has become weaker would be mistaken, as it retains all of its traditional characteristics with which it has become famous over the years in underwater activities.
On the outside, the watch comes in its original format, featuring a stainless steel case measuring 39mm in diameter, 10.70mm thick and 41.50mm lug-to-lug distance, which sounds crazy for a work watch like this. It comes with the usual mainly brushed finish, no-decompressing bezel, sapphire glass, recessed screw-down crown at 3 o’clock with the brand’s signature, screwed solid case back and 200m waterproof.
On the dial 8 colour options break down into 13 variants, with the Sharkhunter (black), Professional (orange), Divingstar (yellow), Aquamarine (light blue) and Caribbean (navy blue) tones coming with a sunray or matte dial, the Searambler (silver) and the Sea Emerald (green) with a sunray dial and finally the Whitepearl (white) with a matte dial. In them, we can find the usual layout, of three bold central hands that, like the printed hour markers, are filled with Super-LumiNova, a painted minute track, a date window next to the crown and a 60-minute outer bezel.
Inside there is nothing new, the Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement that we also find in other models continues to operate, and which, without being dazzling, continues to prove efficient, reaching 28,800 Vph and offering a meagre 38 hours of power reserve.
The watches come attached to an FKM rubber strap matching the dial or a beads-of-rice steel bracelet with a folding clasp, with prices varying between €1,550 for the first option and €1,590 for the second.
Our Opinion
We loved it, we have long been in favour of moderately sized watches and when they are combined with a brand that we also really like not only for its history but also its journey, it is the perfect marriage.
The brand was smart about maintaining the main features of the dive watch and thus managing to hold the public’s interest, which is why we believe that the 13 variants that have just debuted should be enough to leave no one out and keep us entertained next week in Geneva where we hope to see them live.
