A year later, DOXA introduced the world's first 8-Day movement specified for use in automobiles, and DOXA dash clocks began appearing in early cars from Mercedes Benz, Peugeot, and Bugatti. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThroughout the mid-20th Century, DOXA introduced a wide variety of timepieces, from consumer grade time-only to ornate ladies cocktail pieces, alarm clocks, precision cockpit instruments, and military-issued wristwatches. The 1940s and 50s saw a number of beautiful wrist chronographs introduced, and the one we have found here is nothing short of exceptional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn virtually New Old Stock (NOS) condition, this beautiful steel chrono epitomizes the brand's mid-century design prowess, from its extremely legible silver-toned dial with dual color outer scales and telephone timing 30-minute register to its gold-toned feuille hands and elegant claw lugs. Powered by a Landeron 48 manually-winding chronograph movement, this DOXA has seen only a minimal amount of use in its 65+ years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn our opinion, mid-century chronographs are some of the most desirable and beautiful timepieces in the realm, be it a Gallet, Rolex, Patek Philippe, or DOXA - and values on steel models in particular are beginning to climb.

While a number of features on this model make it worthy of appreciation, what delights us most about it is its relatively thin cushion case design, very close in profile to the original 1967 models. Over the course of production, vintage DOXA Subs and their modern equivalents have bulked up significantly, but the '67 and '04 600T models retain a trimmer design, making for comfortable wear on the wrist and a better balanced timepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with its ancestors, the 600T line was offered with several different colored dial options, including the classic Orange Professional model. This particular example is configured as a Sharkhunter (black dial), and finished with a full white handset - an aesthetic choice ultimately abandoned by DOXA in favor of an orange minute hand on later models.  Sharkhunters featuring these hands are commonly known as \"Whitesharks\" by collectors, and in our eyes are the best of the bunch, once again properly evoking the original models from the 1960s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs die-hard enthusiasts of the originals, we have nothing but love for the 600T Whiteshark - without question our favorite of the contemporary line.

The Sub 300T Professional debuted in 1967, with a bright orange dial, a unidirectional bezel (the first to feature the U.S. Navy No Decompression chart), and a beads-of-rice bracelet that was the first to implement an expandable clasp that could fit over a diver's wetsuit.

The Sub 300T was favored by the king of SCUBA, Jacques Cousteau, and Dirk Pitt, the hero of Clive Cussler's series of adventure novels. It was the first dive watch to feature a U.S. Navy \"No Compression\" chart on the bezel, a Helium Escape Valve on the side of the case, and a bracelet that had an expandable clasp that could be adjusted over a diver's wetsuit without the need to remove links. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYet Doxa's history started long before the Sub 300T debuted in the 1960s. In 1889, Georges Ducommun founded Doxa in that horological hotbed, Le Locle. From the inception of the company, its main stock in trade was dress watches. Their expertly-engineered pocket watches earned a place of distinction with luxury consumers in the early 1900s. They even garnered awards, such as a Gold Medal at the 1906 International Exhibition in Milan. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThroughout the 20th Century, Doxa introduced a wide variety of timepieces. They ranged from consumer grade, time-only watches to ornate ladies cocktail pieces, alarm clocks, precision cockpit instruments (including the first 8-day movement developed for use in automobiles), and military-issued wristwatches. The 1930s and 40s saw the introduction of a number of beautiful chronographs that combined elegant looks with the precision that consumers had come to expect from Doxa.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis watch is an example of a chronograph called a Regulator. This innovative design was first developed by Gallet, which eschewed the typical \"compax\" dial layout of most chronographs. The Regulator was intended for use by pilots, physicians, and sports referees, whose job involved timing. Therefore, the hours and minutes are contained in a smaller sub-dial at 12 o'clock rather than arranged around the outer edge of the dial, allowing the tachymeter track to be more visible. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Regulator was a watch favored by pilots, and has the classic looks of a chronograph from the 1930s and 1940s. This was before Omega changed chronograph design forever by putting the tachymeter on the \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/shop.analogshift.com\/collections\/watches\/products\/omega-speedmaster-professional-3\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Omega Speedmaster Reference 145.022-69ST\"\u003eSpeedmaster\u003c\/a\u003e's bezel rather than on the dial. So in the case of the Doxa, all of that information is arranged in concentric rings. The outer ring depicts five-minute markers and every second and 1\/5 second in between, meticulously placed to allow the wearer to take precise measurements. In the center of the dial is the tachymeter, spiraling all the way from 400 to 21. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt's visually impressive, and in gilt it's absolutely stunning.

Shortly thereafter, Tompion’s pupil George Graham—himself a practical astronomer with extensive experience in developing astronomical instruments, such as the orrery—perfected Towneley’s design and brought it into popular use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eBy the 1950s, the complication found its way into wristwatches—most notably in Omega’s “Synchrobeat” Calibre 372 and Rolex’s Tru-Beat, Reference 6556.

Many of their movements were cannibalized and found their way into other watches; surviving examples now can fetch tens of thousands of dollars at auction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eDOXA was one brand that introduced a dead-seconds wristwatch in the 1950s. Though known best for their chunky, sporty dive watch that Jacques Cousteau (and our founder) both love, the Sub 300T, the brand also dabbled with complicated movements. The Jumping Seconds was one of these.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eFor their Jumping Seconds watch, DOXA relied on the Swiss èbauche manufacturer, Chezard. While the calibres used by Omega and Rolex were plagued with problems (being difficult to both produce and repair), the movement made by Chezard—the Calibre 2-115—was like a breath of fresh air. However, DOXA’s Jumping Seconds, like its true-beat cousins, wasn’t long for the world, seeing barely a decade of production before it was discontinued.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eNeedless to say, surviving examples are rare. In fact, we can say in our decades of collecting DOXA that this is probably the only one we’ve come across.

During her return voyage to the Middle East, the \u003ci\u003eBritannic\u003c\/i\u003e sailed full speed ahead into the Kea Channel just south of Athens. Over one thousand souls—doctors, nurses, and crew—were on board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eOn the morning of November 21, the double-hulled ship shook from stem to stern.

As man conquered the unexplored regions of the Earth—and even the solar system—the vast world beneath the waves still mystified (and terrified) the mariners who sailed over it. Still, there were brave souls who dared venture into the depths and sought to breathe like fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eEarly attempts to develop underwater breathing devices were achieved as early as the 19th Century. For example, in 1865 the first mass-produced regulator, was patented by Rouquayrol-Denayrouze. But these early devices relied on surface air supply, long hoses that greatly limited the depths the divers could reach. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eIn the 1930s a Frenchman named Yves Le Prieur devised a diving suit that incorporated a cylinder of compressed air, carried on the back, which freed divers to swim farther and deeper than ever before without the encumbrance of a hose that tethered them to the earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eBut of course the Aqualung—ancestor to modern SCUBA equipment—was what made recreational diving possible for the masses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe story of the Aqualung—tested in the waters of Lake Neufchatel by Jacques Cousteau as World War II raged above him—is as legendary as the man who invented it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eAnd though Cousteau often wore Blancpain Fifty Fathoms in his expeditions, in the late 1960s he collaborated with DOXA to design a watch that is inexorably associated with him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eA dive watch needs to be rugged, the case thick enough to withstand increased atmospheric pressure at depth. DOXA achieved this with a rounded cushion case design that would become one of the most recognizable silhouettes of the era. On the bezel DOXA incorporated an innovative feature—the U.S. Navy No -Decompression chart, with the outer depth scale in orange and the minute scale in black, which allowed divers to time their dives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eDOXA experimented with many different colors—bright orange, silver, black, but found that the color ultimately didn’t affect visibility.
