    Vintage Diver

    Longines Ultronic Dive Watch on Heavy Mesh.

    Lovely Orange Bezel and Minute Hand and lots of Wabi :wink:.

    Tuning Fork movement - humming away nicely after some TLC from Paul at Electric Watches (Top Bloke).

    Q+D Shot

    Very nice! :)

    General design looks similar to the Doxas, and hands in particular are like many of the Jenny Caribbeans.

    Very nice Martin, I've always had a soft spot for those, I think it's the orange and that handset. Not too keen on the mesh though if I'm honest. I think a mat black leather or maybe sharkskin strap would really bring the beauty of the dial and bezel to the fore.

    Cheers,

    Gary

    Feedback appreciated.

    You can be certain that I will be trying all sorts of strap combos !

    Already got my eye on a nice, black Croc.

    I like it. :) A Di-Modell Chronissimo would suit, IMHO.If the lug width allows of course.

    I love the look of that on the mesh although i'm not too sure about divers on leather. I'd like to see it though.
