Diviso by Roebuck Watch Compay

Some designers are not bold enough to make a Diviso. A crossover watch that covers features of two styles of watch, the Diviso slips effortlessly into the drive arena but has great water resistance of 10 ATM. Design queues are evident that Guy has a history in architecture and that the watch has been well thought out. 

A case constructed by what Guy calls surgical grade 361L stainless steel, this is supposed to ensure that the case stays in tip-top condition and prevent corrosion. The case design has a real structural form with brushed and highly polished surfaces. On either side of the watch, the highly polished area frames the brushed area and offers a really nice contrast. On the caseback is a laser-etched image of Round Rock water tower. However, I personally would have liked this to have been deeper given the excellent case as a whole. At 2 and 4 o’clock are two crowns the control for the chapter ring at 2 and at for the crown to set the time.

The case is well proportioned with dimensions of 42mm diameter, 49.77mm lug – lug, 11.97mm thick, and 99g in weight. This makes the watch feel comfortable on my 7″ wrist.

A carbon fibre insert in the bezel frames the inner rotating chapter ring of 60 minutes. A shinny red triange starts the chapter ring followed by baton minute maker and five-minute makers 05 – 55. Although this has a nice click when actioned it, unfortunately, moves to easily for me and I’d have liked more resistance.
