There is a limited edition ocean crawler at Watch This on Waterloo. Purple dial with full kit. It’s tempting

Subjective of course. To become qualified as a commercial diver, the deepest depth you have to do is 165-ft for X amount of dives. Then after surfacing, we finished with a chamber ride for decompression. Most folks in my field will go their entire careers and never go past 220-ft. So, to me real depth is planning a working dive past 300-ft or about 10 atmospheres. That’s off the standard Navy dive charts and you need to know what you’re doing. Working dive meaning, you are on-gassing at that depth for a decent amount of time before starting your ascent or off-gassing. Then the ascent itself is tricky.

"Tricky" is a good word. I think on that 330m+ dive, the guy spent under 15mins getting down, and 15 hours coming up.

Personally, I like this watch but am hoping to add another one. Ocean crawlers are good, worth the money, but I was kind of secretly hoping @surjimmy would yell dibbs! Oh well, a good excuse to keep it! I like their new one, the "Bolt" but I am not a huge fan of integrated bracelets.

Helium valves and stuff

Warning!!...this photo does NOT contain a helium valve, and could explode!
But, any watch which keeps +2 secs deserves at least one photo.



And the, "I went to Grenada and all I got was a lousy watch!" souvenir.


Actually, two lousy watches, this one still somehow has the freely rotatating bezel still attached. Crowns do screw down on these.
