The Eska Amphibian 250 "H-Hour" pays tribute to the Provence landings of August 15, 1944. This numbered limited edition retains the technical DNA of the range: 250m water resistance, unidirectional sapphire bezel, sandwich dial and automatic movement.
The black dial features cubic markers for enhanced readability, while a red-tipped lollipop hand adds a refined touch. Tricolor colors illuminate the dial in a nod to French heritage.
The striking historical detail : a red line at 7:50 and the number 50 on a red background commemorate the precise time when Allied troops reached the Provençal beaches during Operation Dragoon. The caseback engraved with the French amphibious military certificate - a warrior on a triton - underlines the military authenticity of this exceptional piece.

French Amphibious Forces
It was at 7:50 am on August 15, 1944 , during Operation Dragoon, the landings in Provence.
that the Allied troops of the first wave of assault set foot on the beaches of the French coast,
thus writing a heroic page in the history of France.
Eska pays tribute to him with the Amphibian 250 "H-Hour", a limited edition numbered to 50 copies.
This diver is the result of close collaboration between the Eska teams and Adrien S. , at the time commander of the amphibious helicopter carrier "Tonnerre". It is reserved for specialized units of the French Amphibious Forces.
The dial of the Amphian “250” stands out with its four so-called “oversized” cardinal points, which are the very signature of this watch.
The indexes add relief and depth to the dial because they are integrated in a “sandwich” fashion.
These indexes are also adorned with a red color reminder at their ends, the red being there to emphasize the sporty aspect of the piece.
To further emphasize the importance and memory of this H-hour, which was the moment when the landing troops left the relative shelter of the amphibious barges to assault the beach, a subtle red line is positioned at 7:50 , and the number 50 minutes is on a red background.
For this limited edition, the Amphibian 250 "H-Hour" is also available in a right-hand version, with the crown positioned at 9 o'clock instead of 3 o'clock. This option is available when ordering.
Historically designed for operational uses, this configuration improves wrist comfort and enhances the functional character of the watch, while remaining true to the tool and military spirit of the project.
