If 46mm isn't too big for you, Hamilton Khaki Aviation Pilot has 200m WR.

Just yesterday, Steve-o emailed a pic for approval of a 20mm strap he had made for me, which I intend to wear on my PRS-18A. He calls it a "Para Strap," for which he uses the canvas from 1940's...
Used to own a Skindiver until I found a PRS-50B and the Skindiver seemed redundant. I think the Fifty Fathoms style watches look great on mesh.

I owned that same model of Seiko Superior, which came on a rubber strap, but looks absolutely smashing on mesh. As a matter of fact, that mesh looks a lot like the bracelet I had on mine, which went...
Tasteless? No, it has plenty of taste.....all bad!
The Orbita Database is a good source for referencing direction and turns per day for specific watches and movements.

Acquired a Perrelet Seacraft last month and I'm very impressed.

I think that many of us have unreasonable expectations when it comes to accuracy of our mechanical watches. I know I do.
Your new Perrelet is gorgeous, but a bit too dressy for an old retired fart who wears a lot of loud, Hawaiian shirts.
I got this 42mm Perrelet Seacraft with the ratcheting clasp a couple weeks ago and the quality is superb. An online retailer here in the States had a fantastic sale on these. It's a shame that it has...
The only two dialer I own, Hamilton Lloyd.

Picked up the Perrelet Seacraft A1053-B in an after Thansgiving sale that was too tempting to pass up. Everything about the watch, which uses an in house version of the Soprod A-10, screams quality,...
I currently own several blue faces.

I love my Combat Sub.

I've detected the vanilla arome in some Bonetto Cinturini straps, but less intense than Isofrane. It also seems to me that orange Isofranes have more distinct vanilla than black ones......

Don't own one because I avoid cheap, Chinese TV brands. Not that China isn't capable of manufacturing some nice watches, but things I've read about Stauer suggest very inconsistent quality.
And here it is. Very minty...

Keep in mind that Ball has watches with two levels of tritium, T-25 and T-100 (25 milicures, 100 millicuries of tritium on the dial). Ball and Deep Blue are the only watch companies that are allowed...
Waiting on one myself. I've owned a couple in the past, but this one should be the nicest one of all-a sterile dial GSAR w/ full kit including bracelet and Jan 2012 contact that the previous owner...
No heresy, but being the owner of a PRS-18A, I prefer the beadblast on this particular watch. I've always preferred stainless steel over PVD, but this was my first beadblast watch and I was so...
