Case
Featuring a 40mm stainless steel case, the M60 AquaLion meets (and substantially exceeds) the requirements of the latest international ISO standard for professional-quality dive watches - ISO 6425.
The M60 AquaLion - which is available with or without a date display ('M60 D' & 'M60 ND') - is also equipped with a unidirectional 60-click dive bezel. The bezel is crafted from matte-finished ceramic and features knurling inspired by the sight adjustment mechanism on the Bren light machine gun, introduced at the start of WWII.
The Case depth measures 14mm deep, with a lug width of 20mm and a lug-to-lug of 48.9mm.

The M60
The subaquatic environment presents the most profound challenge to watch makers; the performance of your watch really is mission critical. So, the M60 Aqualion was designed to meet and surpass your expectations.
Drawing inspiration from the Vertex dive watches of the 1950s and 1960s, the M60 emerges as the embodiment of robust functionality: meeting ISO 6425 regulations, a depth rating of 2000ft and utilising the very best Sellita Swiss Chronometer Certified movement.
In signature Vertex style, the crowning jewel of the M60 is its luminosity. Featuring the latest “X1 Grade” Super-LumiNova, its moulded hour markers and coated hands glow brighter and longer, ensuring unparalleled visibility at any depth.
The M60’s "Bren Bezel” patten and knurling pays homage to the sight adjustment mechanism on the Bren light machine gun used alongside Vertex watches in WW2, making it prefect for gripping and turning with satisfying precision.
