LIP Watch: Nautic 3 Quartz Blue 671862

Lip: the Nautic 3 Quartz 200 M 39 mm 671862, a neo-vintage diver with a sweeping second hand

The Lip Nautic 3 Quartz Blue 39 mm 671862 distinguishes itself from reference 671861 by its stainless steel bracelet, while both models share the same matte blue dial and blue bezel. Compared to reference 671863, this version maintains a matte dial finish rather than a sunray one. The Nautic 3 Quartz 200 M 39 mm thus combines the sporty aesthetic of a dive watch with a more versatile and dressy presentation.

The Nautic 3 Quartz Blue 39 mm adopts the design codes of the brand's dive watches in a 39 mm round case. Crafted from 316L stainless steel, it features an alternation of polished and brushed surfaces. Its contained diameter, 20 mm lug width, and 1970s-inspired architecture give the Nautic 3 Quartz Blue balanced proportions that are suitable for a wide variety of wrists.

The matte blue dial of the Nautic 3 Quartz Blue is framed by a unidirectional rotating dive bezel equipped with a blue aluminum insert. The peripheral "piano key" minute track, the historical lightning bolt placed under the Lip logo, and the counterbalance of the second hand directly recall the collection's identity. White indices and luminescent hands, punctuated with orange, ensure the readability of this Nautic 3 Quartz Blue when lighting conditions dim.

The Nautic 3 Quartz 200 M 39 mm is protected by a domed sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating. Its screw-down crown and screw-down stainless steel case back contribute to its 200-meter water resistance. With these features, the Nautic 3 Quartz Blue can accompany nautical activities and diving, while maintaining an aesthetic versatile enough for urban use.

The Lip Nautic 3 Quartz Blue is powered by the Time Module VH31 quartz caliber. Its central second hand adopts a sweeping motion, and the caliber features a stop-second function. The Nautic 3 Quartz Blue offers an announced accuracy of ±15 seconds per month.

The brushed, silver-colored 316L stainless steel bracelet extends the robust construction of the Lip Nautic 3 Quartz 200 M 39 mm. It is paired with a deployant clasp and contributes to the total weight of 155 grams. Manufactured in Besançon, France, the Nautic 3 Quartz 200 M 39 mm combines a distinct neo-vintage identity, water resistance suitable for diving, and the ease of use of a quartz movement.
