We’re not doing black. It’s stainless. Black would be sometime in the future.

Maybe in the future. Black is only made, right now, for operational DOD groups and the “first” black DIVER-1’s are being awarded to a special group next April.

So, Black isn’t an option at this point.

If it had a lifetime warranty, good quality, functional Zulu strap and a red tip second hand, I'd buy one for sure!! :fro:

Hahaha. Well played. And yes, you know the deets because we shared breakfast last week. All that info comes at “product launch” but yes: 10 year battery, 5 jewel Swiss movement, and lifetime warranty is standard with the DIVER-1.

Is this also where I say $695 Dave? Because it’s $695. :-)

And let’s #thankscotch for my Saturday evening blabbering ;-)

It looks good. A lot to like there. I’d love to see a side profile. From that angle the ridges on the bezel look huge! Also, am I the only one that noticed that the bezel is a bit off from the dial? Again, is this the angle of the camera because it definitely is not lining up!

I'm interested in getting an omega back in the box and a Tudor. Also another Farer. So maybe Omega Speedy 57 vintage lume. Maybe black bay Chrono.

Great minds....I just picked up a Tudor and have 2 Omegas inbound. The Tudor is vintage and going out for a service.

I’ve been searching for the CASIO G-SHOCK 35th Anniversary Red Out Watch DW-5635C-4.

They were released last year around December.
Shot up from $140 to as high as $600.

I had a chance a couple of months ago to grab one on eBay new for around $230, but I got sidetracked and forgot to bid. :angryfire:
It's a beautiful world! Gerald.

Cool thread Image

On deck is a Sinn 836

Before that happens I have to send 3 back to Seiko Japan for service, Emperor, MM & SD600m. After that, I think I’ll be content for many yearsImage

Sinn nailed it with this oneImage

I’m hoping Watchbuys will bring it to the Roadshow in November. If I love it, I’ll order on the spot!
