Victorinox Maverick Quartz V242095 Watch
The Victorinox Maverick Quartz V242095 belongs to the Maverick Quartz collection, the Swiss brand's line that combines a sporty diver-inspired aesthetic with everyday practicality. Victorinox defines this model as a sporty watch designed for daily use: it's not an instrumental extreme-diving diver, but a piece with diver elements that maintains the presence of a steel watch without becoming a diving instrument.
The movement is the Swiss quartz caliber Ronda 715, with hour, minute, second and date functions. The case is brushed stainless steel, 39 mm in diameter, 11 mm thick and 21 mm lug-to-lug. The crystal is anti-reflective sapphire. Water resistance is 20 ATM (200 metres), with a screw-down crown and screw-down case back. The bezel is bidirectional, in polished steel. The dial is blue, with indexes and hands with Super-LumiNova. The bracelet is stainless steel with brushed and polished links, a butterfly deployant clasp with pushers and a tool-free strap change system. The weight is 164 grams.
The highlight of this Maverick Quartz is the combination of the blue dial with the steel bracelet: the blue of the dial gains presence over the brushed and polished links, which alternate finishes on the surface. The 39 mm case and 11 mm thickness keep the profile contained, and the double shock protection covers daily use without adding bulk.

Why choose this watch?
Steel bracelet with butterfly deployant clasp
The stainless steel bracelet alternates brushed and polished links, and closes with a butterfly mechanism with pushers instead of a pin buckle. That keeps the bracelet snug and avoids the wear typical of conventional buckles.
39 mm and 164 g: contained proportion with steel presence
The 39 mm case and 11 mm thickness keep the watch in a contained proportion, and the steel bracelet raises the weight to 164 grams. It's a package with more presence on the wrist than the rubber version, without leaving the compact format.
Ronda 715 with magnetic resistance and double shock protection
The magnetic resistance prevents the watch from being thrown off near phones, speakers or computers. The double shock protection absorbs the impacts of daily use, so that the precision of the quartz isn't lost due to a knock on the wrist.
Frequently asked questions
How does the quick-release bracelet system work?
Victorinox's system doesn't use conventional spring bars: the bracelet has an integrated anchoring mechanism that is released with a gesture from the attachment point itself, without the need for a tool. To change it, the anchor is released, the bracelet is removed and the new one is fitted until the mechanism is secured. The system is designed so that the bracelet is secured with the same gesture with which it is released.
Is it suitable for swimming?
Yes. The 20 ATM (200 metres) resistance covers swimming and shallow free diving, according to the usual water-resistance criteria. The crown is screw-down and the case back is screw-down, which reinforces the watertightness compared to a watch with a push crown.
