The Dive Watch Connection

It’s coming and I won’t be watching.

I’ve talked about this so many times for so many years in my reviews. There’s just no getting through to some people. I’ve even seen some say they would never buy a dive watch without one, and of course those are people who don’t even dive, let alone are a saturation diver. I remember many years ago...

Okay so I’ve seen the commercials but I’m not familiar with offer up. I did spend about 10 minutes looking it up and no, you can’t post things from the website for sale and you do need a smartphone to do it, and also have to upload your drivers license to use it as well.

i'm looking at getting an antenna for local channels, making some individual streaming service decisions, and ditching directv sreaming. i don't have patience for all the "negotiating by holding customers hostage" that's going on with the big streamers/cable. we've discovered we watch the free roku...

We’ve been getting peacock free for like 2 years now.
Some kind of glitch that we obviously won’t alert them to.

I’ve been using Paul’s Watch Repair in California for quite a few years.
Send them an email and let them know the issue and they will let you know if they can repair.

Here’s a replacement option. Backed with French calfskin.

It’s definitely a hirsch buckle but that looks to be a handmade strap. Maybe Art, Drew, but there are a lot of canvas strap makers out there. Canvas over leather with minimal stitch. Not to hard to replace.

Thanks for the replies! Since UN offers a 5 year warranty if bought from "proper" channels, I might not want to chance the steep discount and no manufacturer warranty from a gray dealer. How big is the discount? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro 40%! 40%?? For me, it would easily be worth it t...

Thanks to all - yeah, it sucks and makes me want to cause someone physical pain but bottom line is that I was at fault and on the upside learned a lesson. I was able to track the money transfer from the app people to the Philippines but it’s a dead end from there. Paul, did you pay with your bank o...

Old brand, but it’s of course changed hands a lot, used to be distributor for Nivada and many 60s and 70s watches labeled Croton were actually Nivada, as Nivada couldn’t use their mane in the US. They used to sell on HSN and Shopbnbc in the 2000s and these most would associate them with Invicta or A...

Rubber strap/lume dial is my pic. May have to get one.

Still wear mine a lot. With a 1000 different custom faces it’s the best digital watch I’ve ever had in my life. https://media.fotki.com/2v2e1jwR5xAqZad.jpg https://media.fotki.com/2v2e1jforxAqZad.jpg https://media.fotki.com/2v2e1jf6dxAqZad.jpg https://media.fotki.com/2v2ei5c9mxAqZad.jpg Those are s...

I've only worn my ultra 2 maybe a dozen times since I got it. I thought I would use it a lot more when I'm working out to track my heart rate etc. but I prefer no watch at all or a g-shock in terms of having the watch get out of my way and not having to worry about accidentally bashing it when I'm ...

Be interesting to see how it plays out. An appeal doesn't change the finding they stole the tech...seems that Apple will still have a problem. Eh, I see them settling with the company and then giving them a small chunk of sales and it all goes away. I’ll honestly be shocked if Apple isn’t allowed t...

I see that the Apple Ultra might not be available soon. Apple stole the blood-oxygen sensor tech from another company and lost the case in court when they were sued. Ultra's will no longer be legal to import into the US. https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/news/2023/12/27/apple-watch-ban-lifted/720...

It was a website problem that I think took a few for Tapatalk to catch up. I’m posting from Tapatalk now.

It’s an NFT. It’s a virtual, digital item that you own, and about the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen in this new generation.
Another ridiculous silly way to bilk more money out of people.

Apparently there is already an improved version, but I don’t see it on their website. The only one shown is the launch edition. Makes me suspect they didn’t sell well and want to move the original first. https://youtu.be/7wCh7Llksls?si=40oUAoyu9Dsiuvoo Apparently the Ocean Diver sold out already, a...

That’s a lot of money for some crude text on a dial…
