Aquastar

Aquastar was founded in 1962 in the city of Geneva in Switzerland by Frédéric Robert. Robert took over the brand Jean Richard from his father and soon changed the name to Aquastar to reflect the idea behind his venture: to create professional grade instruments for divers and aquatic activities.

Aquastar had been awarded numerous patents, based on each patent a new Aquastar family member was born.

These patents included inner rotating bezels in the model 63; a special “no decompression” calculation bezels that could be used for multiple dives  in the Deepstar, the Benthos and the Regate counter; as well as new water-resistant crown designs crown sealing system and the friction bezel ring that were incorporated in every Aquastar and the regatta counter watches.

All these unique functions were tailored to a professional diver’s exacting needs.
