The Aquastar Benthos was inspired by the rapid advancements in professional diving during the 1960s, a period defined by the exploration of the ocean’s deepest frontiers and the rise of commercial and military dive operations. Frédéric Robert, Aquastar’s founder and an accomplished diver, designed the Benthos as a tool watch capable of enduring the extreme pressures encountered in deep-sea environments. Drawing influence from submarine technology and the equipment used in saturation diving, it combined a highly legible dial, thick crystal, and superior sealing system to achieve remarkable depth resistance. The Benthos embodied the spirit of underwater discovery—precision, durability, and innovation—making it a benchmark in the evolution of dive watches.

Drawing influence from early oceanographic tools and the needs of military and commercial divers, the Deepstar incorporated a large, easy-to-read chronograph subdial, an internal rotating bezel for elapsed time measurement, and superior water resistance. Its minimalist yet technical aesthetic reflected the era’s fusion of science and style, making it both a practical instrument and an icon of mid-century dive watch design.

Influenced by nautical chronometry and the rhythms of sailing competition, the Regate combined Swiss engineering with a sporty, ocean-ready design. It became a favorite among professional sailors and enthusiasts alike, symbolizing Aquastar’s mastery of functional innovation for life on the water.

Its design took cues from the clean, functional aesthetic of nautical instruments, with a rotating bezel and high water resistance that made it ideal for everyday wear.

Heartfelt Testimonials on Watch Repair
I found Times Ticking on the internet. The last time I had a watch repaired locally it cost more than the watch did new. I got it back just like new 2 weeks later and 2,000 miles away. HIGHLY recommended. Times Ticking was prompt, inexpensive, and even phoned when they got my watch and told me in advance what it would cost to repair.
Their service was grade A!!! They're quick and professional; they always kept me updated with status of my watches. Their work is flawless which they stand behind, to me most importantly. They speak to you as if you're an old friend asking for help; in which they're always happy to do. Times Ticking; a place where you can ask an old friend for help.
I cannot speak to the local facilities or sales staff. I am an internet customer who took a chance and sent my prized Accutron watch across the country to folks I do not know and have never met. This was a big decision which took several weeks to discern. I am thrilled with my decision and am planning to send my Dad’s watch in for repair. The difference? This time there is no hesitation whatsoever.
I was thrilled that they were able to repair and clean up a watch that I had inherited from my mother. It looks great and works great. The service was fast. The person who called me about the watch was very friendly and seemed grateful for my business. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will use them again if the need arises. So refreshing to receive such good customer service these days!
I highly recommend Times Ticking for watch repair. Jesse & crew know their stuff and even take the time to talk with you. They communicate very friendly/professionally and most of all the prices are more than fair for such craftsmen skills! My opinion: They are like the American Restoration of watches.
