The Dive Watch Connection

Happy Friday!

I'm kicking myself for not jumping on this. Been on a quartz kick of late and a huge Magnum guy.

Oh well, can't wait to see them here!

With missing larger subdial hand that is residing somewhere between the dial and the crystal :shrug: :grin: :lol: ... but is a risk too far for me to try and fix this one. :grin: Have a wonderful day all! :thumbsup: Man I miss my UFO! Anyway, another d...

(One of...) the local micros is releasing some new pieces. No complete details yet, but it seems to be a titanium case, 40mmx48mm, miyota (3 hander - ~$650) and seiko (world timer ~$750) powered. Not bad! I want to like the 3 hander, until I realize how much it resembles a IWC.... Couple of pics gra...

- I suggest that they include some finger condoms and magnifier would be a nice plus.

Fwiw, my kit came with both. However, I ended up using some full finger gloves (use them for working on cars too), and bought a desk top magnifier as well, as I couldn’t get used to the loupe. Good luck!

Very cool! Traska makes some cool stuff, unique enough to not be derivative

Honestly not sure why I own anything else. If I was smarter, this could be “my watch”

I’ve done one and it’s a pretty neat setup. This one I believe: https://shop.diywatch.club/collections/watchmakingkit/products/clearance-sale-diy-watchmaking-kit-expedition-watch-with-date-dwc-d03-black-sunray-sandwich-lume-dial The original build took maybe an hour, setting the seconds hand was the...

That doesn't like like MD!

I love a nice, well loved Speedy!

I'm very afraid. Hopefully Mel can keep it Mel, but I feel like he's probably to the age where he was signed on to have his name associated with it, and thats it.

I think it works for everything...

Just about ready to pull the trigger, any bracelet options for these? I don't see any on their website.

Morning everyone!

Very cool!

Very nice piece! I have another microbrand (Tsao Baltimore Constellation) that is very similar in overall design, using the same movement. My only minor gripe is the 24 hour subdial. I really wish this could be set independently so it offer a second (3rd with the bezel I guess) time zone function, o...

Ive started to enjoy Matt Farrah more and more recently, thanks for the link.

He was awesome, and hopefully his legacy will continue to live on. A great ambassador for motorsports

A couple of follow up notes after I did car shopping yesterday, at a smaller, local Subaru dealership (Annapolis, MD). Just one data point, but I haven't dealt with a dealership in 3 years, so I was very interested to see how it went. - Decent inventory on the lot. Not full, but had every model, jus...

Jumping into the shrouded waters again. I had an arnie that just didn’t stick, but I think this might…

It took me a while to “get it” with these, but once I found the right one, it’s become one of my favourite watches no doubt!
