DOXA’s SUB200T Joins its SUB200 Series

doxa_150

In April Doxa introduced its new women’s SUB200T. The watch is constructed from what the company calls NOS (New Old Stock), also known as “new old movements” and “new old components,” from Doxa’s SUB200 line. To produce this timepiece, Doxa took the NOS cases and dials, and added a new automatic ETA movement specifically designed for smaller watches. A new ratcheting bezel and bracelet were also added to the watch, along with a thicker sapphire crystal replacing the original’s mineral glass to prevent scratching and operate at a water pressure of 300 atm.

Doxa Marks its 120th Anniversary with the Ultraspeed

During its early days, Doxa was perhaps best known for the watches and watch and clock movements they developed for the automobile industry. Doxa’s founder, Georges Ducommun, was a car nut who had a gas station at his residence. Today Mr. Ducommun’s former home is Switzerland’s largest horological museum, and the gas pumps can still be found there. His passion led Ducommun to design and development an 8-day movement to power the dashboard clocks of the legendary Bugatti automobiles.
