Nautic Star
The Nautic Star, reference 163.472.65, is a quartz dive watch from Davosa's Nautic Star line, 43.5 mm across in a case of stainless steel, water resistant to 10 ATM, or 100 metres. It has a black dial and a TriaLink steel bracelet. It runs on the Ronda 515, a quartz movement. A bezel that turns one way only can be knocked forward but never back, so an accident can only shorten the timed interval it shows, never lengthen it.

Collector photographs
Taken by people who own this reference: their light, their wear, their patina. Not the maker’s photography. Where the maker hasn’t given us a photograph, one of these is shown as the main image above, always credited. A few are the Atlas’s own, and say so.
If this watch is in your collection, yours would be the first. A photograph on the wrist shows what a studio image cannot: scale, wear, and how the piece has actually aged.
How to get one

Davosa publishes its current collection and its retailer or service network on its own site. Start there for what is actually in production; this catalogue records references whether or not they are still sold.
Check the reference number against the maker's own page before buying anywhere else. It is the one detail that is hard to fake and easy to verify, and it is what the specifications on this page are keyed to.
