A handsome manifestation of Carl F. Bucherer’s commitment to the conservation of oceans and their rare species is this special edition Patravi ScubaTec Black Manta.
Why we love it
ScubaTec Black, hailing from Carl F. Bucherer’s well-known collection Patravi, is a stunning diver’s watch with a handsome design and staggering water resistance capabilities. It perfectly emulates Patravi’s innovative and functional disposition.
In 2019, the maison reinforced its commitment to a healthier environment and clean oceans with the release of a special edition Patravi ScubaTec Black Manta. The watch was created in support of the Manta Trust, a UK-based charitable organisation that works for ocean conservation and the protection of rare manta rays. It is marked by its stealthy black look, contrasting bronze accents, and the inventive DLC-coated titanium construction.
Like most Carl F. Bucherer watches, style and functionality go hand in hand on this ScubaTec, which has an aesthetically-pleasing unidirectional diver’s bezel, whopping 500m water resistance, a well-finished 44.6mm case, and an automatic helium valve. On the black dial, things get pretty creative. The bronze manta ray detailing against the black background when viewed with the luminous markers and hands creates a vision to behold. A date window is placed at three o’clock in a contrastingly-hued aperture. Self-winding CFB calibre 1950.1 drives the watch, its 38-hour power reserve making it a go-to piece of your closet.
This special edition Carl F. Bucherer Patravi ScubaTec Black Manta 00.10632.28.33.99 is in very good, pre-owned condition with a well-maintained rubber strap. It bears a few minor nicks on the case and caseback.
Provenance
At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
Please note all our transactions with sellers are conducted via registered banking channels, accompanied by a signed affidavit, banking proof, and PAN card.
A specific affidavit stating the watch is not a stolen property and that all applicable duties have been paid is also obtained from the seller and is available for buyers in case of legal requirements.
We strive to build trust through transparency and diligence, outlining our verification process and the inherent limitations. Our commitment to integrity shapes every transaction, prioritising your confidence while acknowledging the realities of the pre-owned watch market.
