sales information
There are dive watches. And then there are dive watches
Most dive watches are designed to survive underwater. Some are designed to look the part. The Bühlmann Decompression 02 was built for something else entirely: to manage decompression. Rooted in the science of Dr. Albert A. Bühlmann, this is not a symbol of diving, it is a mechanical instrument born from it.
Some watches measure time.
This one measures risk.
Design DNA
The Bühlmann Decompression 02 has been built the way it had to be built, with no concessions to established dive watch design conventions.
The design DNA of the Bühlmann Decompression watches collection is found in the oversized minutes hand which times all diving functions. The XXL minutes hand has the purpose of placing the visual focus on the diving information such as the total dive time (TDT) and the decompression stops times.
The crowns positioned at 12 o'clock and a 5° case inclination are the other Bühlmann Diver Watches proprietary design features.
These distinctive design DNA elements as well as the high contrast matt orange dial - for optimal underwater readability - make your Decompression 02 unmistakable and immediately recognizable.
Wearing it identifies you as a serious diver who supports dive safety.
Twin Safety Bezel
The Bühlmann Decompression 02 is the first dive watch to feature a twin diving safety bezel that enables the separate tracking of the total dive time (TDT) and decompression stops (DS), each with its own fail safe blocking direction.
Twin safety bezel. Double safety.
Decompression stops dial
The Bühlmann Decompression 02 features an entirely new usability. In this second model of the Bühlmann saga, the decompression stops data has been moved to the dial. This patented design allows an easy calculation of the decompression stops in combination with the decompression stops time bezel.
X1 Grade power
Superluminova® pigments are Swiss made and offer the strongest possible afterglow performance. The pigments are non-radioactive, REACH compatible, highly temperature resistant and resistant to environmental influences.
Grade X1 used on the Decompression 02 shows a performance increase of up to 60% after two hours compared to standard grades. Long term legibility according to the ISO 3157 standard is extended by at least a factor of 1.6.
The Decompression 02 features X1 luminous on the ceramic bezel, hands and indices.
Functional case
The Bühlmann Decompression case not only features a twin safety bezel, but also a case inclination of 5° for increased dial legibility, a concave case back for optimal wear comfort and a flexible joint on the 12 o'clock lug to ensure a snug fit of the watch for any wrist size.
In fact, the Decompression 02 has been mentioned as the most comfortable dive watch to wear by DAN Europe and CMAS Switzerland instructors who tested it.
The box
The ideal box to carry and protect your watch on dive trips or for that special gift. It includes an original 0-700m ASL Bühlmann dive table.
