Yes that's one of the reasons I wanted one! I believe they made cases for Blancpain as well. They have a pretty cool history and super high quality watch, but with a little more manageable price range than some. Plus I figured if a watch is solid enough to get a 500m rating, then maybe I won't be able to break it! Unfortunately that wasnt the case with the bracelet.Interesting Squale trivia, back in the 1950's they made watch cases for.... Rolex!
