Hands-On: The New Titanium Jacques Bianchi JB300 Profonde x Deepsea.edc
The Jacques Bianchi JB300 Profonde x Deepsea.edc is a limited-edition dive watch that emphasizes practicality and durability, designed in collaboration with Brock Stevens, a U.S. Navy diver. Constructed from stonewashed grade-5 titanium, the watch features a unique case shape, a matte black dial, and a left-side crown configuration, catering specifically to divers' needs. It incorporates a Swiss-made Soprod P024 automatic movement and is water-resistant to 300 meters, making it suitable for serious underwater adventures. The watch's design includes lumed indices for visibility in low light and a 60-click titanium bezel, ensuring ease of use even with gloves. Wearing comfortably like a field watch due to its modest thickness and short lug-to-lug distance, the JB300 Profonde balances aggressive aesthetics with functionality. Limited to just 150 pieces and priced at USD 1,350, this timepiece represents a blend of historical significance and modern innovation in diving watches. It is available for preorder for delivery in January 2026, highlighting its appeal to both collectors and diving enthusiasts alike.
