The Dive Watch Connection

It's time to say goodbye. It's been funny and educational for a while, but after the thread about the new Prometheus diver, I've realised that I'm not going back to being the thug I was at fifth grade, nor I want to be. I know for sure I won't be missed, look at my poor post count :rock: After that ...

Uber-Cool!
Those Chamfers and faded insert are no bullshit!
You don't any other watch now, as far as I understand it

What a good looking piece of equipment. Usually I don't like so many details in a watch but here, everything seems to be there for a good reason and fall into place. Very nice. The hands and dial layout... Beautiful!

That's a solid fishing day. A real beauty Peter!
Vintage Compressors are so nice and yours is just superb.

(I wish I knew which fishing method got you that nice score )

Killer piece. I wonder what he would got without the box. I'd say -500€. Pretty expensive box. And you can't even wear it

Not a bad idea.

Unique for sure. Is it rubber all shiny like that? Sorry about the shiny look. It is shiny, mostly because I've covered those straps with silicone grease for a few days and even after I've wiped it today, it still shines a little. It's the same rubber (and look) as other tropic rubber straps I have.

Thanks Peter

I've Bought this from a guy who claims his father have used lot of those when he was a Mil and then Pro diver. Two were left, which I've bought. Not for everyone taste I'm sure :fro: And no, the son did not any of his father's watches for sale, and when I've asked if he had any, he told me that none...

Very nice, I've never seen one with a ScubaPro dial Here the one I had - "3 liner", I wonder if it's the same Production time frame http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg27/galpo_2008/Aquastar_5-12-10/DSC_1149_m.jpg http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg27/galpo_2008/Aquastar_5-12-10/DSC_1134_m.jpg ht...

Thanks. If Comex can do it, why not me?
If I had a spare dial I'd really do it. right now it a photoshop test

Nice watches out there, here is my 1680 "Galpo"

Thanks Peter.
The 1680 has taken it's first plunge in the water with me, 3 meter of ice cold natural pool in the mountains...

Psych-o-matic...
It's incredible, seeing the process allows me to apreciate this crazy watch even more.
The funniest stuff are some of the replies to this article.

It's the holidays here, so been visiting my parents and we picked a bucket of olives from the the tree in the back yard with this one http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg27/galpo_2008/Rolex%201680/74B3A64A-DFB9-45A3-83A3-0AE8E03B67DF.jpg http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg27/galpo_2008/Rolex%2016...
