The Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver Full Black is a 38 mm automatic chronograph in glossy black DLC, with a matte black dial, white luminous indexes and a red Yachting Timer counter at 3 o’clock.

Full black, with one touch of red

Everything is black: the case in glossy black DLC, the matte black dial and the bezel. White Luminova indexes keep the time legible in every light, and the hands and markers glow in the dark.

One detail breaks the dark: the red Yachting Timer at 3 o’clock, a nod to Nivada’s historic ties to exploration and performance. Discover the full Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver collection.

Made for air, land and sea

The Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver was designed to serve aviators, divers and drivers with a single instrument. This Full Black edition keeps that spirit, in a polished and brushed case with a double-domed sapphire crystal and a water resistance of 10 ATM, or 100 m.

FAQs

A chronograph is a watch with a built-in stopwatch: pushers start, stop and reset a timing hand, while the main hands keep showing the time.

Press the top pusher to start the chronograph, and press it again to stop it. Press the bottom pusher to reset the chronograph hands to zero. The main hands keep showing the time throughout.

DLC (diamond-like carbon) is a thin, hard carbon coating applied to a steel case. On the Chronomaster Full Black, the 316L steel case has a glossy black DLC finish, which gives the watch its all-black look.
