The Dive Watch Connection

Welcome to the team!

Pulled out the Stowa today. I really like this one but I have too many watches. This one may have to go on the chopping block soon.

Sitting here waiting for the 4R to be serviced. They have a 2018 Land Cruiser sitting in the showroom, with 44k miles. It would make a nice stablemate….. :think: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240217/97e39d85bfbcb960c0fb112bd3871f0b.jpg How much is that LC? $69k. It’s pretty much perfect. Sound...

Wearing the Nomos Neomatik 42 today.

I like it and there are only 25 being made, so they have to recoup the tooling cost on fewer units. I’d be in at $2500 or less.

Have you guys seen these 3 new Sportivo models? I kind of dig the GMT. https://www.muehle-glashuette.de/wp-content/uploads/Sportivo_Trio_Image_1_30cm_1-1140x556.jpg https://www.muehle-glashuette.de/en/high-functionality-sporty-chic-the-new-sportivo/ They are funky and yeah, I kind of like them too....

We need a little bit more melting before we can use the fire pit again, but we have more snow coming tonight.

Turns out the rubber strap is cut too small for my wrist.

Replacement rubber is $250, I decided to pass, but that price is great.

It’s a great watch. I’d say it got the most compliments of any of the 6 I took this weekend.

Took the dog for a walk today around a local park and saw some gorgeous ducks and also “the most Colorado thing I saw today”. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240212/9a776a11eb252be526fc35a810fbb153.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240212/59eff1bb8885a2a55913d5a97f00fe4f.jpg https://uploads....

Shhhhhh! We’ve got something special.

Agreed. The faux lume is light enough in color so it integrates with the matte dial very well.

Good to see some of the guys again. Definitely a wide variety. That all bronze Root beer Tudor and Roger's bronze and blue Tudor were stunning. My UV light lit the Dark side of the Moon Omega up something crazy! Mike's Ares SOG maybe had the best Lume there. My wife and I get together with some of ...

Who brought all those vintage beauties? There were a lot of vintage guys there last night. If you were talking about the grouping of photos of the JLC, Hamilton, Bulova, and Alpina, they were all from a guy in from CA visiting his friend in Denver. Yeah that was the grouping, plus that elgin pocket...

Yeah, you missed a good one today, but sounds like you made the right choice. The roads were fine when I drove there but sketchy on the way home.

Dang I missed out on seeing some stunners! Freaking snow kind of jacked up all the roads in our area so we have been house bound all day. You were missed. The roads got super shitty as I headed out about 6pm. My car was skating like crazy heading north. It was a dope meetup. Yep. I ran into some sl...

Great get together today with a crazy wide variety of watches. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240211/06c7c540a364e4ff41e2806ba6f85c30.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240211/9ab05a0fcda99d43ac5f633a28ccaae9.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240211/2a57c22a543e4204642728ae45dfb39b.jpg ...

You’re making me miss that one! Looks great.

I’ve seen some interesting use cases for mixed reality headsets (VR + real world), but they were all industrial or task-based in nature. For example, using these types of googles to help someone accomplish a complex task. I’m not really seeing the home-use benefit of these right now, and especially...
