The association of Cousteau Society and IWC that took place in the year of 2004 can only lead to a spectacular creation like the perfect aqua timer named Chronograph Cousteau Diver. Together with the celebrations of the great coral reef that took place in the year of 2003 near the Red Sea and with the main sponsor like IWC can only give birth to a fantastic corporation: 50 years ago when Cousteau sails on this unknown waters and full of mystery with the help of his ship named Calypso that was left even today on the bottom of the water for exploration and tourism, used some extreme navy indicators that the divers from our days observe that some indicators are perfectly conserves some of them has stop from working after 40 years under water and that is the best opportunity to create from it a greater watch in the memory of Cousteau and Calypso. The story of both of them has even been transformed into Hollywood.

     Today in the memory of that ship and that sailor the Schaffhausen Corporation that are know to the world because of their special watches want to show their appreciation and come up with a limited collection called Aqua timer Chronograph of only 2500 exemplars and they will be donated to the Cousteau Society.

     So the proud owners of this watch not only enters the Cousteau Association and bringing a tribute to who was Cousteau they also become protector of nature and become one with Francine Cousteau mission, to save the planet. Every watch has a different component on it, component that where on the ship or even the ship name or the mission name a special figure that creates from the Cousteau watch a masterpiece that is elegant and very special for those who understands him. If you search throw the world 2500 watches that are from the same firm and every single one to be different with something you will see that the only place for this is Cousteau Society. This shows us that every single one of this watch was created manually at least for the exterior design.
     Being stamp on the back steel case and under the safe glass is a piece of wood that cam from the famous ship.

     The under water watches have a general problem when it cams about pressure and still indicate the correct time whiteout any mistakes. High pressure that appears in bigger depths can malfunction some equipment even if there are mechanical or electronically. When the pressure raises some forces created can affect a hermetic close chamber even if we speak about a watch. Those forces are affecting the watch indicators or the quartz and so the correct time can not be shown to us. But these things can not appear to the new Cousteau watch because the manufacturers implemented an inert gas inside the watch, a gas that has the property of eliminating pressure forces even if we speak of 200 meters bellow waters.

     So the correct time in a double way that the Cousteau watches show us, have become one of the most important property. The resistance under water and with function that are required for any diver creates a new chronograph that can help a diver in any problem and can be easily used like a watch that is specially created for under water used by navy divers.

      The Cousteau Diver can be found also in the standard mode and it cams with a bezel like a supplementary function but it can only rotate in a single direction. The button that can be found near the 4 o’clock number have a double use one to reset the watch and another to turn the bezel around.
