Squale 1545BR Review
This watch is a Submariner homage no doubt about it, that's what I liked. It sort of reminded me of a Tudor Submariner. I love the blue bezel and the sunray dial is beautiful especially in the daylight.
The 1545BR is a 40mm watch powered by a ETA 2824-2 movement with a 42hr power reserve that's very accurate. Since I've had it it has been -3 seconds. Not too shabby. The bracelet is a SS 20mm brushed with a flip lock closure with solid end links with a divers extension & screw in links making it easy to size the bracelet. It is very comfortable on the wrist. The case is made from 316L stainless steel with a screwdown crown & caseback and a water resistance of 200 meters. The crystal is a domed sapphire with no Cyclops giving it a nice clean look. The indexes are lumed with C3 superluminova which makes it very bright in the dark. The PIP on the bezel could have been done better. It looks cheap. The bezel is uni-directonal with 60 clicks. The weight feels just as heavy my rolex sub although I didn't weigh it. After wearing the Squale 1545 BR for a week I am quite impressed. The watch is well made and has received quite a few compliments since I bought it. For under $500.00 it would be hard to find a watch that's a swiss made automatic with a ETA 2824 movement that looks as nice as this watch does. If you're looking for a good everyday watch with the looks of a submariner give the Squale 1545 a try I think you'll be impressed also. I give it 3
