SKU: ELVIA/QZ/DIVSB

ELVIA first made military specification diver watches of this type and case design in the 1970s for the French Marine Nationale (French Navy). This watch is very much in the spirit of their original models.

ELVIA was an officially authorized military contractor to the Marine Nationale alongside notable brands like Beuchat, Tudor, Rolex, Heuer, Luxia, MN Auricoste, Triton, and ZRC. Many companies, including ourselves and CWC, continue to use this case pattern today. MWC are the official European and US distributors for ELVIA watches.

The current ELVIA watches are closely based on a case pattern originally made by the renowned Swiss case-making firm MRP S.A. Founded in 1953 and bought by Georges Hauert in 1979, MRP is now independently owned by Patrick Hauert. The case design has remained largely unchanged since the late 1970s. More information can be found on their website: MRP S.A..

In addition to ELVIA, watches using this case pattern have been produced by companies such as Precista, Nilax, and Heuer, who were predecessors to Tag Heuer and made the Heuer 844-1 in 1979. Chronosport manufactured the Sea Quartz 30, worn by Tom Selleck in Magnum PI. Currently, CWC and various other companies continue to use this design. This case pattern is historically significant and has stood the test of time, being in continuous production for over 40 years.

The watch measures 45mm including the crown and 40mm excluding the crown. It uses a 20mm military nylon webbing strap, compatible with various NATO strap variants as well as French Marine Nationale straps.

Benefits of Sapphire Crystal:

Synthetic sapphire is the best material for watch crystals due to its strength and shatter and scratch resistance. These characteristics make it very appealing to military and security personnel, police officers, and those who lead active outdoor lifestyles, who account for over 70% of our customers. The original plexiglass crystals used in the 1960s were easily scratched and prone to cracking, limiting water resistance. When clients have accidents resulting in a cracked crystal, over 90% involve watches with mineral glass crystals or plexiglass. Even hardened mineral crystals do not come close to sapphire for durability under adverse conditions. Sapphire crystals are heat-treated to remove internal stresses, enhancing their strength. They are then made into watch crystals with two layers of anti-reflective coating. Sapphire crystal's robustness and durability make it a preferred choice for high-end watches and is now used in the latest iPhone models.

Day/Date Quick-Change Correction:

This watch offers the option to display the day in either English or Spanish. Here are the instructions for the quick-change correction for the day of the week:

  • The blocking time for the day of the week quick-change correction is between approximately 10 pm (22:00) and midnight (24:00).
  • The second language first appears around 24:00 for about 2 hours until the display changes to the required language.
  • Pull the crown out to position II (watch still running).
  • Turn the crown anticlockwise until the desired day of the week appears in the required language.
  • Push the crown back into position. From this point on, it will remain in the chosen language.

MWC are official distributors for ELVIA watches.

    Best Pillow Ever
    Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
    Best pillow ever. Although it still gets "hot", it does take longer to get "hot". I love this pillow. I was buying a new pillow almost every 3 months. Other pillows would either remain rock hard or go flat. I was concerned at first when reading the description as I though the memory foam would be big pieces. They are soft fluffy pieces. I had to remove almost half of the foam to get the pillow to what works for me. I have not had to put any filler back in. Maybe in a couple of more months I may have to put a bit more in, but it is holding it's shape and not going flat. I do fluff it every night. This helps. I am a stomach sleeper. I have bought the expensive purple pillow and hated it so much I gave it to my daughter. This QUTOOL Pillow is the best! I bought a 2 pack. Have not used the other pillow yet, but I feel I may actually go years for once without having to buy a pillow as I have the 2nd one set aside if the first one gets to a point in need replacement. I have bought Dollar Store pillows. I have bought $300 pillows. None of them even come close to this pillow and the way you can adjust this pillow for you. The pillows came in a white mesh like bag. I keep all the unused "stuffing" in this bag. I have it hanging in my closet and I just fluff the bag once a month to keep the filling fresh so it is ready if and when I need it. Coming from someone who has trouble staying asleep, neck issues, a stomach sleeper who hate those flat pillows manufacturers think stomach sleepers like but actually hate, buy this pillow. Just buy it. Best Pillow for a picky person like me. Buy 2 or more so if you have to stay at a hotel, you can take your own pillow.

    Foam Mattress NEEDs Foam Pillows
    Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: King(Pack of 2), Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: King(Pack of 2)
    10 stars!! Quality foam, structure & price. Best bang for my buck.    HRV, readiness & total sleep score metrics increased drastically this week.  See screenshot :) Support: Molds and cushions every crevice under my neck and above shoulders. So comfy  Size: Adjustable loft but king length is perfect to hug and rest your head.  Love love love. The 1st 2 nights were uncomfortable with pillow as is, first night I was up at 3am half asleep pulling foam out but wasn't enough. The second night at 2am I pulled out more stuffing. I was getting frustrated..  my Oura ring showed both nights I was awake every hour.  Not good.  Before the 3rd night I pulled enough to fill the bag the 2 pillows arrived in. Boom -8hrs sleep and for the first time ii years I achieved 17% Deep sleep.  Huge. Weight: Perfect weight with adjustment. Squishy and molds to b the contour of my neck and shoulders Softness: Like the baby bear.. just right.   Comfort: Very comfortable after removing 30% foam in both pillows. I actually now have enough to make a 3rd pillow, replace old foam, or adjust OGs, Still to early to measure.  If you have a foam mattress that contours your body but not your head you'll end up with neck and/or back pain from head being elevated- not sinking/molding the body into a foam mattress.

    These are not sized correctly - beware
    Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: King(Pack of 2), Color: Blue-ice Plus, Size: King(Pack of 2)
    Edit: I was going to return these pillows but the seller contacted me and offered a full refund due to the size issue without having to send the pillows back. I am happy with this and happy to keep them on a spare queen size bed as they really are nice pillows. Just the wrong size. pros: they are a nice pillow and the cooling feature is really great, and you can adjust to your liking cons: absolutely wrong size. Ordered King, tag says king, all measurements on listing and tag say 20x36, in reality they are more like 20x30. Definitely Queen pillows being sold as King. I did not see any reviews at first about size issues but after I got these and did a search it does look like others have had the same problem. A shame, would have given them a great review if they were the correct size
