The most popular version of the original Chrono Diver is back and brighter than ever. The Blue Panda is defined by its crisp, energetic contrast—vibrant blue subdials set against a stark white dial. It’s a sophisticated, nautical take on the skin diver genre that feels at home on the open water or in the office. We’ve sharpened the execution for the second generation. The Blue Panda now features our re-engineered 42mm case with alternating brushed and polished surfaces and integrated solid end-links. The new 5-link bracelet tapers from 22mm to 18mm for superior comfort, while the TMI VK63 Mecha-Quartz movement provides the "always ready" convenience of quartz with a mechanical-style chronograph reset.

- Style meets comfort.
- Our new fully articulating 5-link bracelet is designed specifically to follow the contour of your wrist. It features a dramatic, premium taper from 22mm down to 18mm, reducing visual and physical bulk at the underside of your arm.
- No tools required.
- Our re-engineered clasp allows for instant, micro-sizing changes throughout the day. Whether your wrist is swelling on a hot summer afternoon or tightening up in the cold, you can find the perfect fit in seconds without ever needing a spring bar tool.
