Saw the email this am.
I’ve always liked the lime and the logo on strap is nice, but don’t care if the bezel is ceramic. I like matte ceramic but other than that, I’ll take the aluminum bezel insert.

I have lusted after the Provider for years. The one thing that keeps me from jumping on one is the height (15.6 mm). My personal limit is nothing more than 14mm. I really would need a chance to try one in person before I would consider buying.

I had the regular Seatime (not the prodiver), which is about 2mm thinner. Still wore big, and those slab sides didn't like long sleeves. That said, it wore comfortably as the lugs angle down and obviously the whole thing is titanium. I could see it being massively uncomfortable if those lugs dug into your wrist though. Not one for hoppy with his bear mitts.

this is one design that I don't think aged well over the years. Interesting a few years back, but blah now.

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

I always liked the look of the Prodiver. Have had a couple years ago and they did wear large and not very comfortably for me. That was before they were made in titanium.

Too little, too late. They'd be better off offering up a more modern watch v polishing up an old one.

Looks phenomenal, and the accents really add a nice touch, and somehow
make these that much cooler, and sportier ! 8-) :) The ceramic thing takes
things up another notch too. Seems like the perfect summer time, or any
time watch Andrew. Thanks very much for the report ! :thumbsup:

It's the year two thousand and twenty. Is a ceramic bezel insert really the kind of thing that gets people excited anymore?

Honestly, I miss the matte dials and aluminum bezels - but then again I'm old and I actually get my watches dirty working outside. :shrug:
