Looks to be about $400 47mm diam. :think:

Thanks for the heads-up.

Nice. I bought one in 2006 and gave it to my Dad a few years ago...still going strong and it hasn't been babied. Ever.

Looks like I am buying another ABC watch ... like this one, big time.

TEAM AMERICA! ( or maybe China? ) wherever they built that thing, it looks pretty cool and the video was well put together for an ABC watch..lol "feel the field!"

I've had a PRG 40 for years and it rocks. Very intuitive.

Wish you could dive with these things..

Thanks for the post!

I like it. Had one of the older version back around 2006. Really like that watch - all Ti, including the bracelet. Wonder if this one will come with a bracelet at some point. :think:

Never fear Paul, looks like they're also working on an ABC G-Shock. Supposed to be announced or released in Oct.

Keep in mind, the newer mudman also has a compass, temp, and moon graph. It does lack an altimeter and barometer, though. Fairly useful functions I found when I had mine. That new Rangeman looks pretty cool too, but I'll bet that's a big mofo!

Yeah, definitely don't like the looks of that Rangeman. That's why I've got a 9300 Mudman en route. I'll have all of my bases covered with that and the Riseman.

I would guess PRW-3000T-7 will follow the other models.... Ti with bracelet...

You know, what they need to focus on is not 'sensor power savings'. They need to make it so you don't need a computer degree to use all the features.

Hell I've worked in IT for 15 years and I still need to look up the manual for my PAW-1300 if I want to take altitude measurements over time. Great watch, complicated to use.

New one looks good though, and less than 57mm is definitely an improvement :)
