AV86 WATCH: 1956 MARINE BLACK QUARTZ

The AV86 1956 Marine Quartz Steel Black: robustness and marine elegance

The AV86 1956 Marine Noire draws inspiration from 1950s marine watches, featuring a clean and functional design. Its deep black dial, 41mm steel case, and Cordura strap give the AV86 1956 Marine Noire a style that is both utilitarian and refined. Versatile, it embodies the fusion of watchmaking tradition and contemporary use.

The choice of the TMI VH31 quartz caliber is judicious: the sweep seconds function makes this AV86 1956 Marine more dynamic. With a seconds hand that moves more smoothly than a classic quartz movement, you can enjoy the precision and power reserve of quartz while retaining the lively character of mechanical watches.
