The automatic Dievas Shadow Stealth is a product of a successful crossbreeding between their Focal and Reaper tactical timekeepers. Featuring a highly contrast black-and-yellow color scheme that allows easier reading of time in virtually any environment, the watch also offers an extremely scratch-resistant black finish with its stainless steel body hardened in a sort of carbon bath and then treated with plasma, which forms a thin, but also a hard coating on its surface. I am not sure how well it would stand when compared to, say, DLC (which, too, has weak points of its own) but it looks and feels durable and robust.

Dievas Timeattack Automatic Chronograph Diver
Dievas, the German watchmaker with a Lithuanian name (in Baltic mythology Dievas is the supreme god) has recently uploaded a number of photos regarding its upcoming diver: the new Dievas Timeattack Automatic Chronograph.
Dievas Focal 500M Automatic Semi-Pro Diver
Dievas maybe not be particularly famous on the west side of the Pond. Still, it doesn’t keep the brand from expanding its model range of professional (or I’d instead call them “semi-pro entry-luxury”) diving watches. The Dievas Focal automatic diver, for example, not only offers an impressive WR rating of 500 meters (50 ATM) and comes powered by a high-grade Swiss-made self-winding caliber, but also features an interesting exterior that will appeal to those in love with the legendary Bauhaus movement.
Dievas Vortex Professional 500M Tactical Diver
Featuring a very clean design that successfully combines the legibility of a classic pilot’s watch with the ruggedness of a modern diving tool, the new Dievas Vortex Professional 500M may be a bit too expensive for a person graduating from something like a Seiko Monster, but, in my humble opinion, easily compensates the price differential with the build quality, impeccable styling, and, of course, tons of German-style mojo.
