The Dive Watch Connection

I found Ripley from Netflix is a good show. Decade ago i watched the talented Mr. Ripley it wasn't impressive. The 60's costumes, old hand gear bus, hotel and some old fashion gadget like Ray Ban shade one would feel nostalgic for those sentiments from the past.

My take is Sinn & Damasko have offered the same functionality mvt and so 4 hands chrono it's not something "new" in watch world nowadays.

Gents, I found an old BSAC diving manual 1978 edition from a local second hand book store. Some interesting finds especially the tools part. I have taken photos for your reading. A photo shown 4-hands dive watch and I think is Aquastar Benthos 500!!! BSAC 1.jpg BSAC 2.jpg BSAC 3.jpg BSAC 4.jpg BSAC ...

I notice the new crown on BB now.

Nice re-edition but they put it as Founder edition as if an usual edition is available after May?

Wonder the movement is comparable to which Seiko movement?

I wish they could improve their buckle and keeper design.

Anything relation to Dune movies?

That's the kind of watch that i found on most mature adults' wrist. Congrats, it's nice.

Reminds me the early days of Bill Yao modded Seiko SKX with type ii dial. I like that one better.

It's coming...

Big boy watch…

Nice strap. Which brand is that?

Looks good and toolish. It beats a larger Doxa in some way.

Gents, if anyone here has a spare 750t white minute hand? Or if you know where i can source one that will fit 750t case. Thanks in advance.

Nice edition! I did not know that the crown is at 2 o'clock in original copy.

Believer is a Korean suspense undercover vs drug lord movie. It was shown in 2017 and i watched both Chinese re-made and Korean version of Part 1.

I just checked the website. I don’t think they’ve changed a word in 10 years.

Sad. He owns the best micro brand watch IMHO.

The thing is if Spinner still in biz?

If Sinn can produce one ghost bezel with 3,6,9 dial on a UX that would be perfect.

i get you. it resemblance the enso circle on the dial.

Nce watch man!

my understanding is Rolex/Tudor will keep most old parts. This proves i am wrong.

UX is the way to go. Well done!

No rush for soon they will issue different version LE over this very same model.

Perhaps is the pricing that nobody mentioned this in the forum,
