The Dive Watch Connection

And while you’re at it ask him if his prices are VAT inclusive and if he’ll be selling it VAT free for export?

Looks great and they got the length of the hands spot on. Not sure about the crown guard thing?

Just saw the price, that'll have to be a no from me. I don't know much about the brand but it seems expensive, I'd have a Magrette Waterman first.

Changed to go to a birthday lime.

6139-6040 from 1977 that a “watchmaker” told me to throw away because it wasn’t worth trying to fix.

To me the numbers, hour markers and hands are way out of proportion to each other and the lugs look weird. I agree with the comment above, I to want to love it but it’s not quite right.

Having handled a SS hydroconquest and hated the bezel I’d never buy one so I hope this is better.

Do those new blue and black ones have longer lugs?

Yep, and different endlinks, crown and case around the crown.

Currently watching Formula 1: Drive to Survive on Netflix, it's very good if you're into Formula 1, which I am.

On Saturday night (forced by the wife) I endured a Dwayne Johnson double of Rampage followed by Skyscraper. Don't just don't.

That’s awesome and strangely I don’t find the date magnifier horrible (but I reserve the right to change my mind).

Welcome Ken.

Everyone’s being so normal, it’s making me uncomfortable.

Back home and taking it easy for a few days.

No riding or racing for six weeks.

Thank you gents. Should be back home tonight.

No watch for me yesterday or today.



Woke up yesterday in quite a lot of pain, one day, one surgery and one appendix’s later and all good.

Works great, Thank you Andrew.

Works great, Thank you Andrew.

Love it.

Nice. Congratulations.

If you can get hold of a blue Bond bezel it makes for a quite different look.

Take the lock off, make the hour hand a tad shorter so it just touches the hour makers, give it a normal crown and make it 42 and I’d be in.

What’s the thing at 9?

wow... Fake this, fake that, fake Pelagos "...I’ve got a Tudor Pelagos with blue dial and bezel on the way." I never understood the appeal of a fake watch. Who are you fooling? No one cares what watch you wear except yourself. But you, yourself, know it's a fake. I don't get it. Great profit margin...
