The ELKA Arinis AF01-1001 reflects the adventurous spirit of classic dive watches while embracing refined Swiss craftsmanship. At first glance, the gradient blue dial creates a deep ocean-like effect, while bright Superluminova dots provide strong legibility. In addition, the blue ceramic bezel and the elegant Milanese mesh bracelet give the watch a distinctive blend of sportiness and sophistication.
Moreover, the design draws inspiration from the historic village of Saint-Blaise on Lake Neuchâtel. The ELKA Arinis blue dial diver carries visual references to ancient artefacts found in the region. For example, the arrow-inspired hands echo a prehistoric discovery from the lakeshore. Meanwhile, the ceramic bezel recalls Roman ceramics uncovered along the historic Devil’s Path.
Beneath the dial, the La Joux-Perret G100 automatic movement powers this ELKA Arinis Swiss automatic diver at 28,800 vibrations per hour. Consequently, it offers dependable precision along with a generous 68-hour power reserve. The 1.4404 steel case, Chevé sapphire crystal, and 200-meter water resistance ensure durability. Finally, this ELKA Arinis Milanese mesh watch is curated for independent watch collectors in India by VAQT Horology.
