Solid stainless steel case and hardened mineral crystal face is waterproof to 330 ft. Designer rubber band with silver reinforcements and push-button buckle is also waterproof and extremely tough. The watch is qute small, the face measures 38mm and is 12mm thick.

Chase-Durer was formed a decade ago by Hollywood film producers Brandon and Marianne Chase. The company structure was based on the need for realistically-priced, top quality Swiss Watches specifically directed to the needs of professional pilots, both civilian and military.
