GMT?
300 type diver in a different color (aka Army)
field watch (i hope)
plastic something or other (bioceramic

)
What say you?
Full disclosure I don't own a Doxa (yet), but they are on my short list when I buy my first swiss watch...

Apparently a 300T "Clive Cussler" version that appears to be stonewashed, with a well worn yellowed map for the face. Interesting.

I've been thinking about vintage doxa lately but this is not what I was thinking about.

It would look great with my stone washed cutoffs.

I don’t mind the weathered look.
It’s the dial that gets me…
And the aged lume in the hands that blends with the dial color.

I like Doxa, I even had a few pages in Diving With Legends, I’ve owned a few over the years. But this one? I think they went full Gandofini on this.
If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

Maybe the aged case and bracelet, but with a weathered professional dial…..
At least that way the orange Dale would be a better tie in to Mr. Cussler.

The best thing about this release, to me at least, is that it reinforces my desire to own a "traditional" Doxa and beat the crap out of it, myself.

What about a Jacques Cousteau version with vintage case on a white minute hand Sharkhunter?

I like the case treatment ...just not digging the dial...they could have done something special with the case back instead..?

Doxas weather pretty fast on their own. Mines just over a year old and it got more wabi than other watches I’ve had this long. That pillow case gets dinged too. Mine has a nice gnarf in it.
It is better to know how to learn than to know.

Time for Doxa to bring Mr Shortell into the design room.

The ad-copy on the website is so cringe worthy.
