The ELKA Arinis AF02-1001 captures the spirit of classic Swiss dive watches while embracing modern craftsmanship. At first glance, the black dial creates a clean and purposeful look, while luminous dot markers ensure excellent readability underwater. Moreover, the bold black ceramic bezel with Superluminova markings reinforces its authentic diver character and enhances timing precision during underwater exploration.
Historically inspired, the Arinis design reflects the heritage of Saint-Blaise near Lake Neuchâtel. In fact, the name “Arinis” recalls the region’s ancient Roman past. Furthermore, the arrow-shaped hands echo prehistoric arrowheads discovered along the lakeshore. As a result, this ELKA Arinis dive watch blends archaeological inspiration with the timeless aesthetic of classic 1960s-70s dive instruments.
Beneath the surface, the La Joux-Perret G100 automatic movement drives the watch at 28,800 vibrations per hour. Consequently, it offers smooth performance and a strong 68-hour power reserve. The robust 41 mm steel case, screw-down crown, and 200-meter water resistance ensure reliability. Finally, this ELKA Arinis AF02-1001 Swiss automatic diver is curated for independent watch collectors in India by VAQT Horology.
