Why it works

There's nothing quite like a good diver watch. Simple, practical, elegant. While most people will never test its 200m depth rating, it's just nice to know (and brag about). Equipped with a Seiko NH-35 movement, this is one high-quality watch that should last a lifetime.

Here's more about the Vaer DS5 - Pacific - Automatic 42mm

DS5 Automatic Diver combines best-in-class durability with timeless design. It is our latest addition to the Vaer dive watch collection - offering an anodized aluminum 120-click uni-directional bezel, sapphire crystal, 20ATM water resistance, and highly reliable Seiko NH-35 movement.

The Perfect Everyday Watch

Our vision for the perfect everyday diver. Simultaneously traditional and modern, elegant and rugged - this watch is an unrivaled, everyday-wearer, with the specs and credentials to put $3000+ watches to shame.

1. Ocean-Ready

Life is unpredictable. The perfect everyday watch needs to provide peace of mind in all conditions. Whether you're heading out in the rain or taking a jump in the pool, this watch never needs to be left on the sidelines.

2. Scratch Resistant

The impact is inevitable. When it happens, you want to be sure your watch won't scratch. That's why we use premium sapphire crystal to protect our dials (the second hardest material after diamond).

3. Easy Customization

Every day is different. And the easiest way to switch up the look (and functionality) of your watch is to change straps. That's why every Vaer watch ships with 2x quick-change strap options.

Sizing & Fit

This watch is sized at 42mm in diameter, and measures 48mm from lug to lug, giving it a medium to large sized presence on the wrist, and complementing most men's wrists over 7 inches. The 42mm case is our largest sized dive option, and we recommend it for anyone with wrists in the 7 inch to 9-inch range, or especially if you're someone who likes a more larger modern fit (compared to our smaller 38mm dive case options).

Built for extended outdoor use, this watch has been designed to be slim, lightweight, and as comfortable as possible, while still maintaining 20ATM water resistance. The watch case measures 13.5mm in height and has a case weight of 70.6 grams. The entire case is also rounded and ergonomic so it can be worn comfortably during activities like surfing or diving.

This watch comes in a range of interchangeable strap options, and they are designed to fit wrists ranging from 6.5" to 8.5" in diameter - though we do have specialty straps available for those with wrists outside of this range.
