Acknowledged in 1962 for launching the famed bivouac model which allowed climbers to get both altitude and humidity using a mechanical gauge, Favre Leuba once again came to the forefront by offering the Bathy 50, the first wristwatch featuring a mechanical DEPTH gauge. It was produced in 2 versions: one with a meter indication for the European market and the other was known as the Bathy 160 for the Uk and US market.
