watchdives Mens Diver Watch, WD1967Q Japan VH31 Sweep Second
Product Overview
The watchdives WD1967Q is a men’s diver watch that combines vintage-inspired design with modern tool-watch functionality. Built for both underwater exploration and everyday wear, this 39mm timepiece draws direct inspiration from classic 1960s dive watches, featuring the iconic “Big Triangle” 12-o’clock marker and sword-style hands for instant recognition and superior legibility. Powered by the reliable Japanese VH31 quartz movement, it delivers smooth sweeping seconds motion typically found in mechanical watches, while maintaining the precision and low maintenance of quartz technology. Whether you’re a diving enthusiast, a watch collector, or someone who values rugged elegance, the WD1967Q offers professional-grade performance in a refined, wearable package.
Key Features
- VH31 Sweeping Quartz Movement: The Japanese-made VH31 movement drives a continuously sweeping second hand at 4 beats per second, blending the visual appeal of mechanical watches with the accuracy and reliability of quartz.

- Triple-Layer AR Coating on K1 Crystal: The bubble (top hat) sapphire or K1 mineral crystal features three layers of anti-reflective coating, drastically reducing glare for clear visibility in bright sunlight or under artificial lighting.
- BGW-9 Super Luminous Blue Glow: Hands, indices, and bezel markings are coated with high-performance BGW-9 lume, emitting a bright, long-lasting ice-blue glow for excellent readability in total darkness or deep water.
- 39mm 316L Stainless Steel Case: Precision-crafted from corrosion-resistant 316L steel with a circular-brushed case back, offering a slim, comfortable profile that fits easily under a shirt cuff or over a wetsuit.
- Sapphire Crystal Insert Bezel: The unidirectional rotating bezel features a sapphire crystal insert for enhanced scratch resistance and lasting clarity.
- Screw-Down Crown and Case Back: Ensures maximum water tightness and durability, with an embossed brand logo on the crown for added grip and aesthetic detail.
