TGIF

I’d give my eye teeth for this

Heresy perhaps, but I like the way this wears.

That’s cool!

But it makes me feel old, since it is such a vintage piece……..and I got my first scuba card before it was published (1978).

Which is more rare - the feet first dial or the meters first dial on a 5513 200M Sub?

They’re all pink on the inside

Not joking around…

Sorry, I'm in the minority here. This doesn't seem to do anything new - big minutes, small hour hands; has a decomp on the bezel but no method to time it; 49mm; and obviously the price seems a bit aggressive...

They remind me of the Street Series Seiko made at around $450.

One of the best dive watches ever made Kudos!

A friend is selling this, let me borrow and try it out first. PAM025 on Metta Caterina leather

Another thing I don’t understand….. the Seiko movements aren’t very accurate and do seem cheap in a watch approaching a grand. I think a smarter move would be to use the thermo-compensated ETA quartz movement, as used in Marathon products. We’ve seen great seconds-hand alignment in Marathon, CWC, a...
