Watchdives | WDC Watches Guide: Current Collections & Models

Watchdives | WDC develops watches for enthusiasts who care about proportions, finishing, dial character and everyday wear. The current range includes accessible quartz divers, mechanical GMTs, distinctive dress watches and more ambitious Premier models. Choosing between them is easier when you compare the complete watch rather than treating “luxury” as a specification.

This guide introduces the current collections and compares nine purchasable Watchdives / WDC models, checked on October 9, 2026. It also explains the difference between Watchdives-branded watches and other brands sold through wetchdives.com.

Explore Watchdives | WDC watches or browse the Premier Collection.

Is Watchdives a Watch Brand or a Retailer?

Watchdives is an independent watch brand founded in 2019 and based in Shenzhen, China. It designs and develops its own watches while also offering a selection from other independent brands. For the company's background and approach to product development, see About Watchdives | WDC.

A San Martin, Cronos or Militado watch bought through wetchdives.com is still a product of that named brand. A Watchdives x San Martin collaboration is identified separately. Check the exact brand, model and movement on the product page rather than assuming that everything sold on the website is made under the Watchdives name.

Understand the Watchdives Collections

These are browsing routes rather than a universal quality ranking. Choose the model that fits your use, wrist and preferred movement. The separate LumeCore Collection helps you explore watches using Watchdives' luminous system; the exact implementation remains model-specific.

Current Watchdives / WDC Models Compared

When three measurements are shown, they mean case diameter / lug-to-lug / thickness. Bezel measurements are identified separately. Every model below lists a sapphire front crystal with AR coating, but the crystal profile, coating specification, bracelet and water resistance differ.

Prices refer to purchasable variants observed on October 9, 2026, before shipping and destination-specific charges or checkout promotions. This is a selected comparison, not the entire catalog. Recheck the chosen option and final checkout total before ordering.

Premier Models: Finishing, Dial Character and Mechanical Choice

WDC0001 Premier: The Flagship Automatic

The WDC0001 Premier is presented by Watchdives as its flagship. Its 39mm steel case measures 44.2mm lug-to-lug and approximately 10.2mm thick including the crystal. Sapphire on both sides, a CNC-machined screw-link bracelet, quick release and fully articulating end links make the case-and-bracelet package a central part of the design.

Choose the movement with the dial: Musou Black uses the no-date Miyota 90S5, while Forest Black MOP and Forest White MOP use Miyota 9015 with a date. All three options were purchasable at a listed $459. The product description also advertised a $30 checkout offer; confirm the offer and final total at checkout.

The Musou surface and guilloché mother-of-pearl provide different visual experiences. Natural MOP changes with angle and light, so an individual dial will not reproduce every studio photograph exactly. Compare the actual dial, hand contrast and bracelet fit alongside the movement. Read our Miyota 9015 vs 90S5 guide for the date/no-date distinction.

WD0019 Premier: Automatic Diver with Included OTF Adjustment

The WD0019 Premier combines a 4Hz ST2130 automatic movement, ceramic bezel insert, sapphire front and exhibition case back, and an included upgraded OTF clasp. Its detailed dimensions are a 39mm case and 40mm bezel, with 47.5mm lug-to-lug and 12mm thickness including the crystal.

The model uses Watchdives' LumeCore X system with raised 0.8mm luminous markers. Our LumeCore guide explains the system, while the WD0019 production update covers hand-lume revisions and additional QC checks.

Dark Grey, Purple, Orange, Blue and White were all purchasable at a listed $289. The description advertised a $40 checkout offer; its application and final price should be confirmed before payment. For movement details, read the ST2130 guide.

WD0016B Premier: A Geometric Dial with Quartz Convenience

The WD0016B puts its square-block faceted dial and steel bracelet at the center of the design. It uses a VH31 sweep-second quartz movement in a 39mm case, with a 36mm bezel, 44.2mm lug-to-lug and approximately 9.9mm thickness including sapphire.

White, Blue and Grey Square-Block options were purchasable at $249; Green was unavailable. The bracelet uses screw links and quick-release spring bars. If replacement straps matter to you, confirm model-specific compatibility: quick release describes removal hardware, not a guarantee that every standard strap will fit.

Choose a Watch by How You Will Wear It

For a Lightweight Automatic Diver: WD007 V4

The WD007 V4 uses a 42mm Grade 2 titanium case, double-domed sapphire with AR coating and stated 200m water resistance. At 48.95mm lug-to-lug and 12.2mm thick, it is the largest case in this shortlist. The watch head is listed at about 54g; complete weight depends on the band.

Purchasable options used SL3001 and ranged from $179 to $209. The PT5000 White/Blue Bezel variants were unavailable. Vintage Black and Green versions list aluminum inserts; Wave Black, White and Blue versions list matte ceramic. The Green version's bronze-tone electroplated titanium bezel is a finish, not solid bronze. Also distinguish the steel mesh option from the Grade 2 titanium three-link bracelet.

For the wider lineup, browse NTTD-style titanium dive watches and compare titanium vs stainless steel.

For a Second Time Zone: WD1993

The WD1993 is a $179 automatic GMT with a Hangzhou 6460 movement at 28,800 vph. It has a 40.5mm case, 47.5mm lug-to-lug and 11.8mm thickness, with a fixed bezel and sapphire crystal. Enamel White/BGW9 and Cream/C3 were both purchasable.

Use its tested 100m water resistance for comparison; the 200m figure in the description is an unverified design target. The supplied clasp has five adjustment holes, with a compatible OTF upgrade available separately. See our GMT buying guide for alternatives and 6460 movement guide for confirmed calibre details.

For a Thin Integrated-Bracelet Watch: WD0013B

The WD0013B uses an ETA F06.412 high-accuracy quartz movement and is listed at 8.2mm thick including sapphire. Its 37mm bezel is separate from the stated 41 × 42.5mm case dimensions; lug-to-lug is 45.5mm. The integrated bracelet includes a half-link for sizing.

Matte Turquoise and Sunray Slate Blue were purchasable at $185, while the other listed dials were unavailable. The listing specifies 80m water resistance and an approximate five-year battery life; actual battery replacement timing depends on use and battery condition. It is a quartz choice for buyers who prioritize a thin profile and a different movement experience from an automatic.

For a Compact Chronograph: WD0526

The WD0526 uses a VK63 meca-quartz chronograph movement in a 38.5mm steel case. It measures 46.5mm lug-to-lug and 12.1mm thick including sapphire, with a five-hole adjustable clasp and stated 100m water resistance.

Vintage Matte Black was purchasable at $139; Lapis Lazuli and Black Aventurine were $145. Black Onyx was unavailable. Lapis has natural material variation, so compare the photographed configuration rather than expecting identical patterns across all examples. This is a quartz-powered chronograph, not a fully mechanical chronograph. For function and operation, read our VK63 guide or browse chronographs.

For a Small Dress Watch: WDC WD2008

The WD2008 combines a 36.5mm polished steel case, bubble sapphire with AR coating and a leather strap. Heart-shaped hands and a W-shaped seconds hand give it a distinct identity. Dimensions are 44.8mm lug-to-lug, 10.5mm thickness and 20mm lug width.

Black MOP and Pink MOP were purchasable at a listed $169; Musou Black was unavailable. The description advertised a $30 checkout offer, so check whether it applies to your order. The watch lists 100m water resistance, but the supplied leather strap needs its own care and should not be treated as a water-use strap simply because the case has a depth rating.

For a Compact Everyday Diver: WD7922

The WD7922 is a $119 VH31 quartz diver with a 37mm case, 45.5mm lug-to-lug, 11.4mm thickness, sapphire with AR coating and stated 200m water resistance. Its compact footprint makes it a useful comparison if you want a smaller watch without moving to a dress-only layout.

WD7922 color check: October 11, 2026 (Hong Kong time). The Light Blue and Pink options were available with the 3-Link Bracelet/New Applied Logo Clasp at this check. Availability varies by selected configuration; recheck the option's current price and availability before ordering. The supplied clasp has five adjustment holes; the compatible OTF upgrade is sold separately. Explore 37mm dive watches for other compact options.

Watch a Hands-On Review Before Choosing

For an outside view of the WD0019's case, dial, bezel and bracelet, watch WesWatches' “Watchdives BEST Diver To Date! Watchdives WD0019” on YouTube. The video is linked from the reviewer's Timed Reviews WD0019 review.

A review shows the reviewer's sample and recording-time configuration. Prices, production details, measurements and bracelet construction may differ from the current listing. Use the product page for the watch you can order now, and our WD0019 production update for documented revisions.

What to Compare Beyond the Price

Movement and ownership: automatic, sweeping quartz, HAQ quartz and meca-quartz chronograph offer different experiences. An automatic requires winding and eventual servicing; quartz requires battery maintenance. A higher price or beat rate alone does not establish better timekeeping for every individual watch. Our quartz vs automatic guide helps with that decision.

Fit and bracelet: compare case dimensions, lug-to-lug, thickness, end-link articulation and clasp adjustment. WDC0001 and WD0016B share a listed 39mm case but differ in thickness, movement and construction. A 37mm bezel on WD0013B does not make its case 37mm. See the small-wrist guide.

Crystal, dial and bezel: sapphire, AR coating, MOP and ceramic describe specific components. They do not replace a complete assessment of hand contrast, viewing angles, finishing and comfort. Our sapphire crystal guide and ceramic vs aluminum bezel guide explain two common choices.

Exact availability: select the actual dial, movement, strap and clasp combination. A published page can have sold-out variants. A checkout offer in the description should be checked against the final order total, and a historical photograph should not override current specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Watchdives and WDC different brands?

The current official site presents them together as Watchdives | WDC. WDC models in this guide belong to that own-brand range, while third-party watches sold on the website retain their respective brand identities.

Are all Watchdives watches luxury watches?

The range spans accessible everyday watches and more ambitious Premier models. Judge the exact watch's finishing, dial, movement, bracelet and fit rather than treating “luxury” as a uniform technical standard across the catalog.

What is the difference between WDC0001 and WD0016B?

WDC0001 is automatic, using Miyota 90S5 or 9015 according to dial. WD0016B uses VH31 quartz and a square-block faceted dial. Their bracelet and case construction should also be compared; similar dimensions do not make them the same watch.

Does every Watchdives bracelet include an OTF clasp?

No. WD0019 includes the upgraded OTF clasp in the configurations checked here. WD7922 and WD1993 list compatible OTF upgrades separately. Check the selected watch and bracelet connection before ordering an upgrade.

Which model is the least expensive in this shortlist?

WD7922 was listed at $119 for the buyable variants checked. This comparison is selective, so it does not establish the lowest price across the entire Watchdives catalog.

Can I order every dial shown on a product page?

Availability depends on the selected option. At the time of this check, WD2008 Musou Black, WD0526 Black Onyx and WD0016B Green were unavailable, while other configurations of those models remained purchasable.

Where should I start shopping?

Browse the Watchdives collection for the own-brand range, Premier for more ambitious specifications and finishing, or choose a function through dive, GMT, quartz and automatic collections.
