The VPC Type 39VM dive watch has been developed and designed by the Dutch microbrand as a timepiece that's engineered to strike a balance between function and form. The watch is positioned by the brand to be the thinnest 200-meter diver timepiece on the market with a thickness of 9.34mm and boasts a dial in Frost and Graphite color options. The timepiece measures in at 39mm in diameter and is accented by a unidirectional bezel with a matte black ceramic insert, while the Sellita SW300-1b movement is COSC-certified and supported by a 56-hour power reserve.
The VPC Type 39VM dive watch is limited to somewhere between 300 and 500 examples, which will be dictated according to preorders that are being taken now.
