Swiss Chronically Certified (C.O.S.C)

Only the highest quality timepieces pass the exacting 
standards required to receive this distinction. Issued 
by  the  Controle  Officiel  Suisse  des  Chronometres 
(C.O.S.C), a neutral and non-profit Swiss organisation, 
the certification involves rigorous testing of the watch’s 
internal timekeeping components with only 6% of the 
market receiving this esteemed accreditation.

Selitta SW 3600 Movement 

The Vertex Dive Watch is based on a Selitta SW 3600 
manual wind mechanical movement with a unique main 
rotor  bearing  system,  taken  from  the  rotor  pattern 
Vertex has used for over 100 years, operating at 28’800 
vibrations per hour (4 Hz) with 25 jewels. The watch 
has hacking movement enabled to ensure the most 
accurate timekeeping through the hack or stop-seconds 
function via simple use of the crown.

Power Reserve 42 Hours

The  power  reserve  indicates  the  amount  of  time 
required for a fully wound watch to unwind when not 
worn.  The  Vertex  Dive  Watch  boasts  an  impressive 
power reserve of 42 hours allowing it to run for that 
duration on a full wind.

The Historical Vertex AquaLion 

The back of your new Vertex Dive Watch features a 
tribute to the timepiece’s history. The Vertex AquaLion 
is  the  same  emblem  used  by  Vertex  founder,  Claude 
Lyons  –  great  grandfather  of  current  Director,  Don 
Cochrane – on his first series of Dreadnaught Watches. 
The “FN” found in both the serial number and on each 
movement of the watch pays further tribute, standing 
for “Fear Nothing” it references the natural translation 
of the original “Dreadnaught” name.
