Doxa’s original T‑Graph dive chronograph was a 1969 design as bold as the divers who wore it. The modern Sub 200 T‑Graph II keeps the spirit of that model while addressing the one complaint modern enthusiasts voiced: size. Where the previous generation measured 45 mm across, the 2026 edition shrinks to a more manageable 42 mm and drops in thickness to 14.6 mm.
Combined with a cushion‑case shape and short lugs, the watch wears closer to a vintage Sub 200 diver than a chunky tool chronograph. A screw‑down crown and pushers maintain 200‑meter water resistance, and a domed sapphire crystal sits proud of the unidirectional bezel with its signature no‑decompression scale.
Under the dial, Doxa has swapped the old Eberhard chronograph for a modern Sellita SW510 automatic movement. The 30‑minute register has been repositioned at 3 o’clock, balancing a running seconds sub‑dial at 9 o’clock, and the hands glow with Super‑LumiNova for legibility in murky water. Timing a dive or a barbecue is aided by the 60‑click bezel and the crisp actuation of the pushers.
Doxa also refreshed the color palette, adding a Caribbean blue dial to the classic Professional Orange, Searambler Silver and Sharkhunter Black options. Paired with either a three‑link stainless bracelet or a color‑matched FKM rubber strap, the watch balances vintage charm with modern reliability.
The Sub 200 T‑Graph II isn’t limited, but it still feels special. At $4,290 on bracelet and $4,250 on rubber, it offers a Swiss‑made dive chronograph with heritage credibility at a price far below many competitors. Fans who admire Doxa’s idiosyncratic cushion cases but need a chronograph will appreciate how this release complements the brand’s core Sub 300 line. It’s also refreshing to see a historic diver evolve gracefully—much like the recent Seiko Prospex PADI Editions that balance homage and innovation.
With its updated proportions and vivid dial options, the T‑Graph II feels purpose‑built for modern wrists without losing the adventurous spirit that made the original a cult classic.
