The Dive Watch Connection

I like standing in freezing water in the middle of the night throwing custom wood lures at fish with the brain the size of a pea in hopes of this happening. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240320/859b558bc072eefa1982af2ff591d97a.png Summertime is fluke (summer flounder) time for me. https://uploa...

That’s a good looking watch.

Nice. If I had an alpha coffee set up like many here, would totally try. I’m still a Keurig bro, mostly due to lack of time.

This watch pretty much killed watches for me

Same. Sold my Sub because I was never wearing it over this!

This is amazing.

I’d be in at $190k.

Ok, I'll start... https://i.imgur.com/MzNFzn7.jpg Rob, is this the 43.5mm? How does the thickness wear compared to the SD4K? Todd, it's the "39.5" 75th anniversary version (which, as a 75th PO, only comes in this size and the larger UltraDeep). Case is 40mm, thickness is 14mm and hugs the wrist (mi...

^ I’m not excited about those. I think Seiko should have a basic looking piece like these, but with the new 6L movement. Charge $1500 +/- and it would be a nice daily diver. Could very well be the angle but the second to last pic also features a misaligned bezel :lol: I do like these for the most p...

We need Youngblood as well.

New unexpected addition last night, the Alinghi Red Bull Racing FXD... :dance: the blue is perfect, heck nicer than the MN blue :o Weight is ridiculous :) The red accents really work well...

Goldfinger is definitely top 3 for me. I might have a reformulation after watching them all again, including the ones that come after Skyfall. When I saw Skyfall in the theater I thought it might just be the best of all. I was extremely disappointed with everything after Skyfall (which I also rank ...

See above.

I’m still looking for my Slazinger 1 in the rough.

Never heard of them, which doesn’t mean they aren’t impeccable, but with so many known 100% legit dealers out there, why take the chance unless you can find verifiable feedback.

36mm looks fabulous on you. noooooo, don't say that :lol: seriously - thanks, I thought so, too. I need time to raise funds for if/when "I get the call" I was contemplating a grey market 224270 (40mm) or used 214270 (39mm) as my next watch…but seeing how that looks on you it makes me realize I need...

A transitional set very close in serial numbers from 1983.

Good lord, Todd. Nice additions to the vault.

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240220/81e461073794b7749a08cda3f76c11a8.jpg That's one good looking watch! :thumbsup: Thanks Rob. Albert O Sinn made this watch specifically for the rigorous demands of me and my small unit, “Muschi-tauchen Le Ken”. Nice you got a commissioned piece for your very ...

My former contact from Momentum told me about this last month that they had been working on this for a while and that it will be a custom movement using a Seiko stepping motor and custom parts as they could not secure Seiko or citizen movements for it.
