Watch Av86 : 1956 Light Blue Marine Quartz

The AV86 1956 Marine Quartz: robustness and marine elegance

The AV86 1956 Marine Light Blue is inspired by the marine watches of the 1950s, featuring a sleek and functional design. Its light blue dial, matching bezel, 41 mm steel case, and navy blue rubber strap give this AV86 1956 Marine 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 a wise one: the sweep-second function makes this AV86 1956 Marine feel more vibrant. Since the second hand is smoother than a standard quartz, you get the precision and autonomy benefits of quartz while enjoying the lively feel of mechanical watches.
