The Taormina is simply stunning.

I was expecting the Taormina to be special but it’s surpassed all my expectations. It’s a masterpiece.

Details, details, details

This watch is truly something special. It really is the only watch you need, ticks every box and more. The level of detail and quality is extremely impressive. The tone of blue will remind of the Sicilian coastline. Just extremely happy about this purchase.

The taormina is pure class.

As with the M60 and M60C, the M60 Taormina is rock solid. The vibrant blue dial & bezel really do add an extra dimension to an already cracking range. Mega comfortable to wear, the bracelet is pure class & the summer blue N.D ZA Strap Co Otan is just a perfect match. I just wish it also came with the Vertex two piece rubber strap in the same blue.

A British Classic Reinvented

100 years since Claude Lyons started the company, Vertex is re-incorporated by his Great Grandson, Don Cochrane.

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.
