I like it, the rubber on the bezel looks great. Can't say I'm fond of the bracelet, but on rubber a big yes from me. Maybe a bit large though but still titanium so it will not weight tons.
Theres some irl pictures in watchuseek dive section if you want to see more :)

Prefer the TT1 TBH on which this is obviously based.

[tintinoman]

Looks great, but the case design is better for the Prodiver........



Love my Prodiver. The bezel system is great.

How do you know that?
My statement is that you have to be a fat bloke to carry 50mm+ off :)

Yes your right :lol: :lol: - my wrist is under 7 inch'es :shock: :shock: . Small but strong enough to carry a +50 mm watch..... :wink: :wink:

Everyone's a big man on the internet ;)

You need a 10" wrist to carry that thing off because of its size (not the weight of course; it's titanium). Anything else, looks like a little boy has stolen his daddie's watch...

EDIT: 9" would do it. (That's "average", right? He heh :)). There's a bodybuilder so blessed on one of the other forums who's posted a pic of his Pro Diver. It looks OK. Mind you, his forearm is 24" around and his upper arm is bigger than most people's waists, so...

Sounds massive!

[tintinoman]

Sounds massive!

YES - but it fits perfect :bounce: :bounce:

YES - but it fits perfect :bounce: :bounce:

Well if it its good for you its good for you :D . IMHO it looks silly on your wrist and would look equally silly on just about anyone elses.

A serious diving tool it may profess to be, but no-one goes drinking or clubbing in a wet suit and flippers do they? To be fair, one thing going for it is short lugs, as you can see here. They come in at under 60mm, or less than an IWC Big Pilot's. But still...

[Puntsdog]

Something has been bugging me about all the big watch debates and as a Pro Diver owner I now have a vested interest...

Surely if you need a big wrist to carry off a big watch then that would make the watch look a normal size.
If you have tiny wrists a 39-40mm watch will look big, likewise a 36mm watch will look tiny on a larger wrist and so on. My point is that not everybody wants their watch to look mid-sized when worn. Some go for a big size, some don't but what would be the point in only being able to wear something 50mm+ if you had giant wirsts as it would only look mid sized.

I think it is all relative but the actual choice really is whether you want to wear a watch that appears larger than average, average or smaller than average.

[adigra]

I love the prodiver and the size of it. I can't justify the price so I don't have one, but would be happy to wear it. I don't work in an office, I have absolutely noone to impress but myself, so I wear/use the things which make me happy, if the general public think it looks silly, so be it.

[MorfaR]

Looves the Pro Diver Crono... Must have !-)

andrew: I see you are located in Abu Dhabi, Doha. How much is the watch around there? Planning a holiday trip to Dubai this January and I am looking for exactly this watch. (Don't tell my wife) :D
