The Dive Watch Connection

Yes. I’ve sold every U-series Sinn I’ve owned because of weight. 45mm Planet Oceans too. I loved all the larger, heavier watches I’ve owned but when something had to go it was the heavy ones first. Since I wear most of mine on nato it was an easy choice. The 45mm PO on bracelet is the only watch th...

Now $4K, this is getting ugly

The hand set is what really kills it for me. They don’t look like they are for this watch.

They're not, they're from the Longines Legend Diver

Which model is that? 44mm?

PAM590, 44mm, 8 day in-house hand-wound movement.

Is there anyone with a more affordable 8 day movement?

Not that I can think of.

There's a nice blue Gen. 1 Seaforth for sale on WUS that doesn't seem to be going anywhere fast. No vestigial GMT hand either

I wish there was a $4,000 Luminor that didn’t have spring bars and the shitty case.

Bet you could pick one of these up new from an AD for $5K

Wow. Do people have bots or something buying these somehow?

I wonder if the majority of them are actually pre-sold to existing customers before being made available online. Hard to explain this otherwise.

besides the case....Nice dials are they sandwich or sausage? Hodinkee says sandwich but they look like sausage to me. I think Panerai reserves the sandwich dial for their higher end watches these days. Yeah it's disappointing they dropped sandwich dial from all of their 8-day luminor models To be h...

Kinda makes me want to buy one.

You rebel

There's 8 minutes of my life I'll never get back. I'll never understand the thinking behind an argument like the one made in this video. Don't treat the hobby like the stock market where tracking values becomes the primary focus. If you like a watch buy it to wear it and enjoy it. If it's 'market va...

Agree, I think it's a good watch, but the regression from big date on the 49150 to this is a misfire from VC. Plus the ~35% price hike...I'd take a 49150 and call it a day. Speaking of which, anyone want to trade a 49150 for my 47040? :D In general I like big date complications (love my GO) but the...

Love the reverse panda chronograph, but $30K is pretty steep...

When I think of Laco I don't really think of dive watches, and I'm not a fan of this design. If I were going to buy a Laco dive watch, I'd go for the Fricker-cased Squad Ocean 1000. https://www.laco.de/media/images/org/861704_Ocean_slide04.jpg Thanks for continuing to post the new watches you come ...

Ripped off the Max Bill design and the Chronoscope name. And the name Feices???? Did Tatsnguns start this company? If you look at the dial it's more like FEIKE than Feces Don't spoil our fun ;) OK :grin: So on a serious note this is totally okay? As long as the fake watch manuf in china scraped off...
