SeaQ carries real dive-watch DNA in its case design, tracing back to Glashütte Original's 1960s dive watches, though this particular reference (1-39-11-17-91-35) is executed in rose gold on a rubber strap rather than steel — a combination that reads more special-occasion than working tool. At 39.5mm with an automatic movement, the case still holds the proportions of the original diver silhouette rather than being softened into a dressier shape. No water resistance figure is listed for this configuration, which is worth confirming directly before treating it as a water sports piece rather than a design statement. On my heritage-authenticity axis, this scores well for keeping the case architecture intact even in a precious-metal execution — plenty of brands round off the edges when they move a tool-watch design upmarket, and this one didn't.
