Squale Divers
I've seen mention of Squale Divers and many have been checking WUS for updates on the Squale line...... as I have posted -- Steve at Princeton Watches will be offering the line in te US.
I have met with Steve and made a few purchases to add to my collection --- very nice guy, and knowledgeable about Dive watches and Diving. PW offers a full line of many well known dive brands and many times will extend a discounted price if possible.
If you are close to Northeast Ohio try to touch base and visit Steve, he is very helpful and he has one of the nicest personal DIVE watch collections you will see of current and vintage models.

Re: Squale Divers
Any idea when these will be ready to order? I'm thinking about adding one to my collection. Any chance they have a website?

I think Derek and a very cool PVD model last year.
Pretty cool looking. I have purchased from Princeton Watches and had no issues.

Re: Squale Divers
It wasn't me, I wanted a PVD version. I think someone like Jay maybe had a PVD version.

Re: Squale Divers
I'm curious to know if anyone is going to order a Squale? Haven't made my mind up yet what I'll do, but it is tempting.

Re: Squale Divers
I was dead set on buying one last year when I saw a couple in the WRUW threads on WUS. I have kind of fallen out of love with them since then, but I still think they are pretty sweet.

The ones on the site have new movements. They're not "NOS".

Re: Squale Divers
Sorry this one took so long to get done and up John, a little ladder bar love from the collection.
Blue's are Omega PU ProPlof's, Tiger is on a N.O.S. tropic from Squinky, the LM-7 is on O7 silicon and the Cape is on the Timefactors' Retro-Poly flat end which is worn on the innermost hole on my 7.25-7.5" wrist for those wondering, it's long.
**Edit: Added some pigment to the PIP lume and polished up a Intl Watchman straight-end brushed press-pin oyster that I polished up with a capecod polishing cloth and Neverdul.

Re: Squale Divers
Love the 'PloProf' Squale. And great shot of the collection.
The Timefactors straps cut easily for shortening, and they're cheap enough so your not agonizing over it.
Here's the PVD version. This was 'NOS'.

Re: Squale Divers
I LRRP was keeping the Legend company in the box while I took the pic, I don't have ladder straps for either of them that I like 'on'.
As for the isofranes, I have to wait for the 24mm's to be offered in Blue and a black 22mm for the Cape when they start going smaller.
