Marc & Sons Diver Watch Series Professional

Post by AtomicTom » Mon May 07, 2018 11:00 am

You guys probably have checked out these Marc & Sons Diver Watch Series
Professionals. In case though, wanted to post some info on them for you.

Looks like the watches have 46mm stainless steel cases, 1000 meter water
resistance, sapphire crystals, unidirectional rotating bezel with ceramic
inlay, helium release valve, black blue dial, black, white, carbon fiber,
and this new olive green. On top of that, the watches come with stainless
steel bracelets, rubber, or NATO straps, and the Seiko NH35 automatic.

Some pictures for you...

Would be a nice watch if not for the two stupid crowns, weird hands, and odd 12 marker. Without those thing it’s just a Sub copy.

After all of the hammering that Omega gets for using a crown for a HRV, this company decides to repeat the mistake, but makes it worse by not having the crowns align with an hour marker.

Along with carbon fiber dials. And putting the crystal material RIGHT ON THE DIAL.

What is the second crown for? Looking cool? Flooding the watch?

It says what it is in the description. A helium release valve.

Its fairly generic looking, the case is too big, the hands don't look quite right and they are a little too similar, the HRV is pointless, and yet another partially indexed bezel on a dive watch.

A big miss for me.

It says it has one, not that the stupid crown is one.

Who gives a shit about an indexed bezel, on a watch that probably has never been pressure tested.

Have to admit, it was the dual crowns that got me guys ! :grin:

The classic compressor style cases always get me too, but I know this case,
as well as the crowns are a little larger than those. ..Just liked the overall
style, and also how many dials, and strap options they seem to have with
the watches.

I think they made rubber straps that looked like bracelets years ago like
they have above. Which was neat. :thumbsup:

P.S. The WR was supposed to be 1000M. Not 100. Fixed that guys.

Thanks a lot for looking, and for your honesty everybody !
