The Aquastar Benthos 500, reference 1002, is a 1970 professional dive chronograph from the Geneva brand, the first non-monobloc dive case rated to 500 metres. Its "minute creeper" complication, driven by the AS 2162 caliber, uses a continuously sweeping orange hand to track elapsed dive time at a glance rather than a conventional stopwatch, and Jacques Mayol wore one during his 1976 world-record 101-metre freedive.
