It is precisely this spirit of wild aquatic exploration that inspires the Helm Komodo Ti Watch.
Priced at an exceptionally reasonable $350, this ISO 6425-certified dive watch takes Helm’s fan-favourite compact diver platform and upgrades it with a Grade 2 titanium construction, delivering ultra-tough underwater specs without weighing down your wrist.
Featherweight Grade 2 Titanium Architecture
At the heart of the Komodo Ti is its brushed Grade 2 titanium case.
Measuring a sweet-spot 40mm in diameter with a manageable 47mm lug-to-lug length and 15.5mm thickness (including the double-domed sapphire crystal), it offers a stocky, muscular profile on the wrist while shedding significant weight.
On its full titanium bracelet, it weighs in at just 145 grams—dropping down to a featherlight 90 grams when swapped onto a nylon strap.
* Case Dimensions: 40 mm Diameter / 47 mm Lug-to-Lug / 15.5 mm Thickness
* Case Material: Brushed Grade 2 Titanium w/ Integrated Crown Guards
* Water Resistance: 300 Metres / 30 ATM (ISO 6425:2018 Tested)
* Bezel: 120-Click Unidirectional Steel w/ Titanium-Coloured PVD Coating
* Movement: TMI NH35 Automatic Mechanical (40-Hour Reserve)
* Weight: 145g (Titanium Bracelet) / 90g (Nylon Strap)
Engineered for serious sub-aquatic duty, the case is equipped with a 7mm screw-down titanium crown, integrated crown guards, and a solid screw-down caseback.
Tested in accordance with strict ISO 6425:2018 standards, it offers a rock-solid 300-metre (30 ATM) depth rating that is more than capable of tackling far-flung ocean adventures.
High-Contrast Dials & Fully Lumed Bezel
Legibility is paramount when diving beneath the surface, and Helm delivers in spades.
The watch is available in three distinct dial configurations: a classic Matte Black (with green afterglow lume), a clean Matte White, and a striking Matte Yellow (both featuring BGW9 blue afterglow lume).
All models position a clean date window neatly at the 6 o’clock mark for visual symmetry.
“By pairing a Grade 2 titanium case with an ISO 6425 certification and a fully lumed bezel, Helm delivers true professional-grade dive specs for well under four hundred dollars.”
Framing the double-domed sapphire crystal is a solid 120-click unidirectional rotating bezel finished in a titanium-coloured PVD coating.
Crucially, the entire bezel insert is fully lumed, ensuring you can track elapsed dive times effortlessly even in pitch-black waters.
Workhorse Automatic Reliability
Driving the Komodo Ti is the tried-and-tested TMI NH35 automatic mechanical movement.
Operating at 21,600 beats per hour (3 Hz) across 24 jewels, this Japanese engine features both hacking seconds and manual winding capabilities alongside a dependable 40-hour power reserve.
It is a bulletproof, low-maintenance calibre built to handle rough treatment without skipping a beat.
