Nautica BFD101 watch

Today it's quite a normal looking, but large and heavy watch by a brand I've not covered before.

The watch it by Nautica and is one of their diver watches. The Nautica brand is based in America and began in 1983, and is now part of the VF Corporation. It started as a collection of mens outerwear, but has evolved into a global lifestyle brand. The brand took its name from the Latin word Nauticus meaning ship, and the logo is a spinnaker sail.

This watch is a BFD101 and has a product code of A14545G. It is a large case watch with a 3 hand dial. There is also a small round window for date at the 6 o'clock position. The case includes a rotating bezel, and the crown is a screw down one for sealing and protection. It is 100m water resistant, and is a solid stainless steel construction.

It came out in 2011 with a recommended retail price of £215 (or $270).
