DescriptionUncompromising robustness of a modern tool watch in an elegant, classic design, the Photic Diver by Clemence Watches is ready to go from sea to summit and everything in between. Designed and assembled in Britain, we've taken cues from the golden age of watches, the 60's and 70's, to create our vision of the ultimate go anywhere, do anything dive watch - capable of surviving the photic zone and everyday life alike.

Climate PositiveThe legacy of every Photic diver will be rooted in helping to reforest Scotland. For every watch that is sold, we will plant a UK native tree, providing ecological benefits to local biodiversity and our global environment. In addition to planting trees, we will off-set at least 2x the carbon footprint of each watch. By removing carbon from the atmosphere we'll help to protect our habitats on land and sea. This is our commitment, helping to protect the wild places we love to explore.
Spirit
Our watches are assembled by hand, in Britain.
Working with local horologists ensures our watches are assembled with the attention they deserve.
We plant a UK native tree for every watch sold and are climate positive, securing a legacy of environmental enhancement for the future.
Light Play
The domed edges of our dials, sunburst finishes and contrasting use of polished and brushed steel give each watch its own personality.
Our gradient dial is a chameleon, bronze gilt accents emit warmth, domed dial edges swoop into shadow and polished case bevels discreetly slim the watch toward the wrist.
What do the Experts say?
"The proportions of the Photic are absolute perfection, as it wears brilliantly on wrist and is also very comfortable"
"The edges of the dial curve down away from the crystal, right where the color is the blackest. It’s genuinely lovely."
"The Ultimate Shark Week Watch:
"this is a charming, elegant diver with versatility on land and natural acclimation in the sea...from a nation planting some of the deepest roots to protect our aquatic ecosystems"

Function Meets Form
Drilled lugs make strap changes a breeze, although we love our steel bracelet and tropic rubber strap, there's no denying the Photic would look great on leather or a Nato.
On the Wrist
Our steel bracelet comes with a diver extension for on-the-fly adjustment and three holes of micro-adjust so you can tune in the perfect sizing.
Alternatively, our premium tropic strap is made from hardwearing yet supple FKM rubber, providing supreme comfort in all conditions.
Beating Heart
A true workhorse, the Miyota 9039 is Japan's answer to a high-end Swiss automatic movement. In our opinion, it's the ideal balance between quality, reliability and value.
Engraved with a depiction of the photic zone, the movement beats over 500,000 times a day, driving a smooth sweeping second hand.
Clarity
The applied markers, hands, and sapphire bezel are all treated with 8 layers of C3 Swiss Superluminova for ultimate low light legibility.
The Domes
The domed dial, sapphire crystal and sapphire bezel create depth and gently catch the light.
