The Dive Watch Connection

I know it's a shit situation, but thanks for sharing. What an a-hole

There was another thread about this a few days ago with some other info. Looks like a nice piece. I made an enquiry at Friends of Oris (Authorised Online Oris dealer, based here is Australia) and they said they don't have an ETA on these yet (shouldn't be too far away though), and the price is RRP ...

Speaking of which, I just ordered one. Can't wait

It's the 2nd here, and I'm wearing this...

I like it. I'm a fan of the mesh - looks old school. Can't find one to fit my large wrist though. Oh well...

Nice watch the C60. I've had a Mk 1 for a couple of years without issue. Not sure about the black, but I'm not a PVD fan...

Living in Queensland really does fry your brain...

Been looking for a mesh for my CD-1. Give it a cool '70s vibe I think. Hard to find a good one from here in Aus though.

I've just checked my Mako and its flush. That gap would definitely bug me. I've stopped wearing watches for less. Good luck with it.

Congrats. These are certainly one of the finest watches around. I love that worn finish strap. Wha is it? I think that would look sweet on my black CD-1.

I like it!

Is that a good price? Cos I don't know. I've always wanted one of those...

Can't be 'em in Aus either. I ordered via Amazon from a Japanese store.

Buncha pansies

Oi! I resemble that remark!

Congrats! Love my CD-1. Apart from the 2 straps mine came with, I have since bought 4 more, and I'm still going...damn this watch habit. I'll post up a pic of my CD-1 straps to give you some inspiration.

Cool, nice group shot! I've just ordered another German watch, but maybe not one you're familiar with? Love the Deutsche uhren

After much soul searching and deliberation I've pulled the trigger on this baby. I've had my eye on one for a while, and posting the other day about my deceased SKX 171 had me hankering for another Seiko diver. (Please God, don't let my wife find out...please, ) Pics upon arrival...

At least Master Daniel wears a real watch on his own time...

Not bad at all

We have a lot of trouble photographing these as well Tony, which is why there is only a few pics on the website. I've been working with different lenses and lighting - I think I've got it sorted. I'll post up some more pics ASAP. (BTW Todd, thanks for an awesome watch. This thing is so comfortable ...

If only it were really a clockwork watch. Batteries in 1875?

I bought the SKX 171. I love the style. Still got me buggered how water got in. After a day of snorkelling, that night after showered and dressed I noticed moisture under the crystal, and the rest was history... :rolleyes: Sounds unusual. As in I've never heard of one doing that. Unlike some much m...

Impressed by Seiko. :) Edit: given that these are based on a _survey_ and not standardized testing, there's a lot of room for interpretation. Maybe there are characteristics that Seiko owners have that made them ensure the crown was properly secured, for instance. Or maybe that one Rolex owner used...
