Lets see those Diver Beaters

Post by Nomadz » Sun May 27, 2012 7:02 pm

I wear typically a Suunto Vector I have worn for 13 years as a work watch or a G-Shock.
When I am working in the yard training etc I usually wear a modded Soxa Seiko. Show us your
beaters..................

I need to get one. The cheapest watch I have now is my MKII LRRP but that thing is perfect and not nearly a beater.

Would think the plastic bezel doesn't belong on this but love the old tritium lume?? With an internal rotating bezel I think the plastic junk on the outside was just added and think I just tear it off and see what it looks like without it :shrug:

This has been my beater for 30 years I bet it's the oldest beater here bought it from the ships store when in the Navy and it still ticking after all the beating I gave this poor watch.

Thanks Uncle Moneybags, the 1% of the 1% :thumbsup:

I don't have a dedicated beater, I usually just ask my butler what time it is. :shrug:
