This is the Cincinnati Watch Company Desk Diver. These "dive watches" were made from recovered, new-old-stock, 1970s Swiss made watch cases. Assembled in Cincinnati with a new dial, hands, crystal, and a new Swiss Sellita SW210 movement. This watch is rated for 0m of water resistance, but has strikingly authentic vintage charm. Unfortunately it is sold out.
To answer questions regarding the actual water resistance of this watch, I got in touch with Cincinnati Watch Company. They confirmed that these watches should be treated like vintage watches. The cases are snap back and were never meant to be actual dive watch cases. This watch is supposed to be a fun take on a desk diver concept using cool vintage cases. And the rubber strap was part of the joke! So, this is not intended to be a daily, GADA watch. Just a bit of fun on non-rainy days.
