{"product_id":"1521-dlc-full-orange","title":"1521 DLC Full Orange","description":"\u003cp\u003eIntroducing the latest Squale 1521 Militare PVD Luminous, the much anticipated reissued design following the first military iteration by Squale in 2015 known as the 1521 Originale Limited Edition. Now it comes without a date display and the Squale shark logo, this timepiece is the first of its 1521 collection to showcase a balanced minimalist look. With unconventional stripe instead of round dial markers, the Militare Luminous is a refreshing riff on the Originale. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt first glance, the 1521 Militaire flaunts that quintessential Von Buren case design, coming in at a well-proportioned 42mm with a 48mm lug-to-lug. Keeping things slim at just 12.5mm, the 316L stainless steel case features the signature Squale silhouette, now treated with a fully bead-blasted matte finish and a deep PVD coating for a total \"blackout\" look. This tactical, non-reflective aesthetic doesn't compromise on performance; thanks to the iconic recessed crown at 4 o'clock, the watch maintains an impressive 500m water resistance. It is a design that feels incredibly purposeful, proving that Squale's classic skin-diver DNA can be elevated into a modern, stealthy tool watch that remains functional far above the industry standard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/Squale1521DLCFullOrange-04.jpg?v=1778752980\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eSquale 1521 DLC Full Orange\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, once you get a closer look, the real character of this watch reveals itself: an extraordinary, vibrant orange dial. To ensure the dial remains the star of the show, the markers and hands are finished in a total \"blackout\" theme, creating a sharp, tactical contrast.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProtected by a hardy flat sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on its interior, this watch shows off satisfyingly symmetrical blackout markers. The Militare sports a neat dial design that harks back to the good old military format, while accentuating great legibility at the same time. Through a clean dateless display, this timepiece displays more of the \"purist\" form as compared to the Originale. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/Squale1521DLCFullOrange-06.jpg?v=1778752981\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFully bead-blasted matte finish and a deep PVD coating\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe real magic happens when the lights go down. Because this is a full-lume dial, the entire face glows in a bright yellow, making the black markers and hands pop in silhouette. It's a clever reversal of traditional legibility—instead of glowing markers on a dark base, you get a glowing backdrop that keeps the time perfectly readable while giving the watch an entirely different, high-energy personality in the dark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePowered by the Sellita SW200-1 automatic calibre, operating at 28,800 bph (4 Hertz), this Swiss-made watch has a power reserve of 38 hours. Enjoy the smooth experience of its 120-click unidirectional dive bezel that allows for accurate and safe measurement of time elapsed especially underwater. Its matte black bezel insert now in a contrast white tone along with the minute markers, all for a clearer indication with a harmonious look. Finished with a Super-LumiNova coated pip at the 12 o'clock position, the bezel ensures mission-critical legibility even in the total darkness of the deep sea.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/Squale1521DLCFullOrange-08.jpg?v=1778752980\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFull-lume dial glows in a bright yellow\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Swiss-made timepiece is paired with a 20mm black rubber strap, finished with a matte black PVD-coated buckle to match the case. A stylish throwback to the '60s, the strap features a classic cross-hatch pattern and diamond-shaped perforations that not only look great but also improve breathability on the wrist. Built for the elements, the rubber is highly durable and resistant to both UV rays and corrosion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 1521 Blackout Militaire was born from a perfect fusion of the iconic 1521 Full Lumen and the Militaire models. By combining a fully illuminated SuperLumiNova dial with the high-contrast legibility of professional markers and a clean, dateless layout, Squale has created an even higher-performing timepiece. It's an athletic, extremely reliable watch with a flawless design that simply never goes out of style. If you're looking for that 1960s retro skin-diver vibe mixed with an energetic military edge, the 1521 Militaire Luminous offers incredible value and stands out as a truly unique addition to any collection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Squale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41102522220608,"sku":"1521DLCFOR.VO\/SQ","price":1690.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/7833\/4784\/files\/Squale1521DLCFullOrange.png?v=1778752968","url":"https:\/\/www.gnomonwatches.com\/de\/products\/1521-dlc-full-orange","provider":"Gnomon Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
