DOXA has long been recognised as one of the defining names in professional dive watches. With a heritage deeply rooted in underwater exploration, the brand continues to refine its identity through purposeful design and technical precision.

The 2026 collection marks a significant step forward, led by the introduction of the SUB 200 II—a modern evolution of one of DOXA’s most established and accessible dive watches.

This is not a reinvention, but a carefully considered progression that strengthens the core of what makes DOXA distinctive.


The SUB 200 II: A Modern Evolution

At the centre of the 2026 collection is the SUB 200 II, a refined interpretation of the original SUB 200.

Designed to enhance both wearability and visual depth, the new model introduces:

  • A revised case profile, now slimmer at approximately 12.8mm
  • A larger 44mm diameter, improving clarity and presence
  • A compact lug-to-lug design, ensuring balanced wear on the wrist

This evolution maintains the integrity of the original while bringing it firmly into a contemporary context.


A New Dimension in Dial Design

For the first time in a core DOXA collection, the SUB 200 II introduces fumé dials—a notable development in the brand’s design language.

These gradient dials:

  • Transition from a rich central tone to a darker outer edge
  • Add depth and visual texture
  • Enhance the watch’s presence without compromising legibility

Available in a range of colours including black, blue, green, grey, and red, the collection remains true to DOXA’s tradition of bold, highly recognisable dial aesthetics.


Built for Performance

Despite its refined appearance, the SUB 200 II remains a true dive watch at its core.

Key specifications include:

  • 200 metres water resistance
  • Unidirectional rotating bezel for dive timing
  • Screw-down crown and solid case construction
  • Domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating

These features ensure the watch continues to meet the demands of underwater use while remaining suitable for everyday wear.


Swiss Mechanical Reliability

Powering the SUB 200 II is a Swiss automatic movement, chosen for its reliability and proven performance.

This calibre offers:

  • Automatic winding with manual capability
  • Approximately 38-hour power reserve
  • Consistent, dependable timekeeping

The focus remains on durability and ease of service—key principles in professional watchmaking.


Materials and Finishing

The 2026 collection introduces refined material options that enhance both aesthetics and durability.

Highlights include:

  • 316L stainless steel cases for strength and corrosion resistance
  • A black DLC-coated variant paired with the distinctive Redcoral dial
  • Choice of Milanese mesh bracelet or rubber strap for versatility

These options allow for a tailored wearing experience while preserving the watch’s tool-watch character.


Staying True to DOXA’s Identity

What defines the 2026 collection is its balance.

The SUB 200 II introduces meaningful refinements—slimmer proportions, enhanced dial execution, and updated materials—while remaining unmistakably DOXA.

It retains:

  • The brand’s distinctive dive watch DNA
  • A strong connection to its heritage
  • A clear focus on functionality and clarity

This continuity ensures the collection remains authentic to its origins.


A Contemporary Dive Watch for Today

The DOXA 2026 collection reflects a modern approach to dive watch design—one that respects heritage while embracing evolution.

It offers:

  • A refined yet purposeful aesthetic
  • Reliable Swiss engineering
  • Versatility across both professional and everyday settings

This makes the SUB 200 II a natural progression within the DOXA range.
