The UBIQ DUAL Navysilver is one of the colourways of the DUAL Series 01, the first dive watch from Singaporean brand UBIQ. Its 316L stainless steel case is 39 mm in diameter, with a 47 mm lug-to-lug length, a 20 mm lug width and a thickness of 11.5 mm including the crystal, which is a raised flat sapphire with curved edges and inner anti-reflective coating. The white dial has polished silver applied indices filled with BGW9 lume and custom hands with C1 lume, with yellow accents and a date window at 6 o’clock. It is powered by the Miyota 9015 automatic, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a power reserve of about 42 hours and hacking seconds, and water resistance is rated at 200 meters (660 ft) thanks to a screw-down crown and a solid engraved caseback.

The rotating bezel has a sand-blasted aluminium insert in navy and white, with Grade A C1 lume-filled numerals. The watch comes on a brushed flat-link stainless steel bracelet with quick-release screw pins, tapering from 20 mm to 16 mm, and an on-the-fly micro-adjust clasp, and it also ships with a colour-matched quick-release FKM rubber strap. UBIQ lists the DUAL at SGD 869, and it has also been listed at USD 649 on the brand’s store. Each watch comes with a two-year warranty.

Worn & Wound’s hands-on review of a pre-production DUAL called it a sturdy, colourful tool watch that would brighten up a collection of plain dive watches, but found the framed edges of the sculpted case sides almost sharp; UBIQ said it would refine the case finishing for the production version. The Calibrated Wrist praised the sand-blasted bezel insert and the slim 11.5 mm profile. The DUAL Series 01, including the Navysilver, is in production and sold through UBIQ’s official online store.
