The DOXA SUB 300 Carbon Aqua Lung US Divers that should have won the GPHG

Time+Tide

I have made it no secret that I felt the DOXA SUB 300 Carbon Aqua Lung US Divers watch was snubbed in the Divers prize at the 2020 GPHG awards. I have nothing against Breitling, let me be 100% clear on that fact, but I personally felt that if the vote were left to the watch community then DOXA would have taken home the award. DOXA is known for its dive watches with a winning formula left largely unchanged over the years.

The fact that their creations are effectively modern fabrications of designs of yesteryear is a testament to this fact, something only brands like Rolex have been able to do. When you have a good thing going, there is little incentive to switch things up. But when you find a way to bring innovative materials into an already great design, I believe such an achievement should be rewarded – and I believe DOXA did just that with their SUB 300 Carbon diver.

The DOXA SUB 300 Carbon Aqua Lung US Divers is a limited edition of 300 watches, contact Doxa for inquiries that pertain to remaining availability in your region. Price: $4,790 USD. For enquiries, please contact: [email protected].
