I cannot wait for this release! This wait is killing me! :scream: You all may very well see some watches go up for sale after this arrives. I don't have a lot left in the stable these days but this baby right here could settle on my wrist for a very long time.

Damn, that looks great. Now I have to decide whether to stick with my Pro or switch to the Searambler. I kind of feel like with only one Doxa, it should be orange, but on the other hand silver is definitely more versatile..

One thing about these vintage domed crystals is that they magnify the white crystal gasket. You can clearly see the white ring on the professional. It blends in nicely with the searambler. It's just a small detail, but it's just another small reason to choose the searambler over the professional.

Hesalite on the left, domed sapphire on the right. See the ring?

I did notice that the "halo" is less noticeable on the SR, at least in that picture. I've seen pics of the Pro where it's not quite as noticeable, but once I see more pics of the SR, that may indeed be a deciding factor. I never liked the sapphire Speedy for just that reason.

Jeff, I just put down my deposit early this morning for a Pro and since I am late in the game, the arrival will be late November for me. Orange dial is missing in my collection and DOXA Pro would be most appropriate.

It was actually an easy decision for me since I already have the SUB 600T-Graph SR. Also I think the SUB 300 SR is not as striking to look at compared to the Pro.

If they had a SUB 300T-Graph SR, that I would be all over. I just love the color scheme on the SR T-Graph.

Congrats Gerard, glad you decided to get one. :thumbsup: Yeah, the decision would be very easy if I had that t-graph. I do still lean toward the Sub, but the SR looks so good too. So Doxa told you it'd be late November? I haven't heard anything as to whether they're even still on track for November.

Is the white ring noticeable on the sharky?

I would say that's a trick of the photography, Ben I certainly wouldn't worry about it

Thanks! Here is what they emailed me:

Hi Gerald, the watches will start shipping mid-November and will go on until the end of the year, right now, your order is scheduled for late November,

Yours may arrive earlier, maybe mid-November since you put your deposit down earlier.
It's a beautiful world! Gerald.

I still can't decide if I want to switch for the third time, but at least it appears as though there will be no wrong choice.

When in doubt, stick to the first choice I say. :thumbsup:

Unfortunately only one is in the cards for me right now. I'd love all three :crybaby:

I'm sticking with the Shark, which was my first choice. Love those white hands.

Sticking with the shark, but for some reason I'm not too excited anymore. Hope that changes when I get it .
