A revival of the Watch thread
Deepblue NATO Divers are 40% off right now as well as some of their 7750 chronos. Pretty tempting if you’re interested in this brand.

$149 for a 300m diver with NH36A and sapphire glass.

Those are awesome.
But I can get a used Seiko for about the same or less.

But I do like their watches. The 7750 Chrono is awesome.

Ahhh! I like the sound of that! How long do we have to wait?

Finished up a Lord Elgin movement today. Need to find a case, dial, and hands for it.

Beach watch 2018.

Dan Henry 1970 with a Crown & Buckle Supreme NATO in black/gunmetal stripe. I love the way the lighter grey turns darker when wet. Which is often, this week!





and,.. "Inbound" on the one that I had wanted for the beach watch 2018, but it won't be ready until fall. I couldn't pass it up with the date window being a matching orange. A great touch!

I think I finally got the strap situation worked out with this one:



I actually really like the OEM "tweed" strap but I need another sports watch on a black strap like I need a hole in the head so I had to go for something brown.

Oh yeah. You got in on the series 3 preorder too. I have an Abyss Blue w/ matching sapphire bezel coming. I hated how the flippers probably stayed home from work to nab the series 2 orders, and them turned around and offered them on Ebay for double.

I had noted one (series 2 I presume) for sale on the forums for a few hundred up from retail. Didn't realize that was happening.
