The Dive Watch Connection

Had an unused bracelet (still packaged) in the watch box.. which I had forgotten about.. so I cracked it open and tried it on.

Looks okay.

Now you've got to learn how to use a circular slide rule Greg :lol: Great history in that watch :thumbsup: As if I am not conversant in the art of using a circular slide rule on a minsicule watch dial with my eyes, already. :o :lol: :lol: :lol: Thanks for the feedback Snoots, and also everyone else...

Okay I am gonna make no apologies for this thread, we all love a good look at a nice watch, I don't think I have seen a watch pic on here that made me think: "no I don't like that." We all love our watches for different reasons. I do love a bit of vintageness, I won't lie. My collection feels like I...

Great news (for me), the watch just arrived and I really like the blue on this version. I knew prior to purchase the OEM straps would run small for me and I would need to order aftermarket straps. I'm working through the FXD thread on WUS for strap ideas. In the meanwhile, I have it on a 20mm Haves...

Lovely piece mate.... I like the metal colour vs. the bezel / face colour design.

And the band / strap also in conjuction with that.


Great piece. Enjoy.

Couldn't be bothered setting the date as it's a long affair on this...

But on a rally with orange stitching to match the hand.

Never seen the Rescue Timer on the red... it is a watch I like.

Nice job as it matches the hand arrow.

Did it come like this?? Official strap?

Still wearing this recenet arrival ... can't put her down.

Happy Friday all.

Felt I had to open up today's proceedings as I have a new arrival...

Cosmonaute 809 circa 1965...

Cheers for the comments guys... most appreciated.

Just took arrival of this in the last week or so.. and am smitten. Quite a rare old bird apparently as there less of these produced than some other similar variants. Photos show the PVD to look very dinged.. but really, it's not so much noticeable in real time. Magnification doesn't help. On a lovel...

Lovely Worldtimer (hope I am right).

Lovely piece, lovely brand.


Great pick up mate.

Welcome.

I have been looking at Lum Tec myself only this last month.
A guy had a bronze one for sale on a UK forum here and the brand has piqued my interest.

Great to meet you.

I see no issue here.


However, I do not wish to be used as a yardstick for commonsense.

Many thanks.


Lovely collection

I do love these... the way the dial is divided up and grooved by the circle has a nice appeal.

It's not just another 'diver rehash.'

It's got individuality.

I particulary like the green with the ricebead elements on the bracelet.


Thanks for sharing Tom.

Giving the old Pepsi Mako I an airing after the recent new colour Mako thread.

It's been a while.

Lovely pieces. I love my Pepsi mako. Indeed... these salmony / patel coloured dials are really becoming a thing. Normally I am not too enamoured with them but these suit the piece well. The price doesn't hurt that feeling too. I wouldn't wanna spend a fortune on something that feels a 'colour fad.' ...

https://i.imgur.com/qmPbOGWl.jpg Just got this back from having its stuck bezel released so it deserves an airing. :love: wowza - beautiful classic. so much nicer than their recent models. How do you like the hybrid bracelet? Thank you. Love the bracelet. Sometimes when advertised is states that th...

Oh nice Greg, really nice, and I don’t know what is cooler about the watches, the styles, or the prices !! 8-) 8-) It’s my first time seeing them too sir. :) I think they look terrific, and can’t thank you enough for the report !!! No worries mate, you are welcome. Yeah I appreciate that they are a...

I am currently wearing my first ever Bulova too... and I must say I do like it.
