The Montoir MWMOD-01 V2 is the latest release from Montoir’s People’s Choice Collection, reflecting a true fusion of enthusiast-designed style and traditional Swiss dive-watch engineering. A 40 mm stainless steel case with brushed accents, double-domed sapphire crystal, and a 120-click unidirectional bezel set the stage. Its proven Sellita SW200-1 movement, tweaked to remove the date complication, ensures crisp operation and a 38-hour power reserve. The watch delivers a clean balance of precision, durability, and style, appealing to those who value both craft and clarity.
On the dial side, the V2 line features seven community-selected colors, ranging from classic black, blue, and white to more playful tones like Watermelon Green, Banana Crème, and White Fume. Each edition is limited and paired with a matching FKM rubber strap to enhance wearability. Super-LumiNova markers, an engraved diver’s helmet caseback, and 200-meter water resistance further establish its identity as a practical, collectible tool watch.
