The Sicura Hexa 400: A Swiss Tool Watch Makes a Grand Return
The Sicura Hexa 400 revives a forgotten Swiss tool-watch name with a distinctive 400-meter dive watch combining vintage-inspired design and modern mechanics.

In case you missed it, I’m here to let you in on some exciting news: the Sicura Hexa 400 is not only back, but it is bolder, bigger, and grander than every previous iteration – an elevated twist on an iconic dive watch that meets the moment in horological excellence. 

1970s Spirit Meets Modern Muscle

The Hexa 400 draws inspiration from Sicura’s 1968 Diver 400, keeping the popular hexagonal case and distinctive dual-crown architecture while updating nearly everything underneath. The end result is a 40mm stainless steel watch measuring 14mm thick and 46mm lug-to-lug, with sapphire crystal, a ceramic 120-click unidirectional bezel and a stellar 400 meters of water-resistance.

Arguably the most interesting feature on this edition is that second crown. It operates an internal bi-color rotating ring that is able to track a second time zone, giving the watch useful dual-time functionality without requiring a dedicated GMT movement. It’s practical and right on brand for Sicura.

The Details Seal the Deal

Available with black, blue or orange dials, the Hexa 400 leans into its tool watch personality. Super-LumiNova-filled markers and broad hands center legibility, while the integrated three-link bracelet brings considerable heft and includes a tool-free micro-adjustment system.

Inside is formidable Sellita SW200 automatic movement, providing hours, minutes, seconds and date functions with a 38-hour power reserve. The Hexa 400 is selling personality, history and serious specifications across the board 

The Final Verdict

The Sicura Hexa 400 looks unmistakably like a tool watch, but its special geometry and dual-time functionality give it an abundance of character to stand apart in a crowded field. For collectors in search of something slightly different and unique, it’s a refreshing revamp sure to please fans. A new chapter awaits Sicura and the industry is eagerly watching.
