In your experience, what has been the most comfortable watch to wear on the wrist?
My long time grail was the PD/IWC Ocean 2000, and after getting one myself I must confess that it has been my...
Great looking watch. I really like the six layers of SL lume on the bezel. Still miss the old fish on the crown, though.
Pity, that IWC haven't made a black rubber-coated version like the...
Wow, 22 weeks is a looong wait...
Stunning restoration. The watch really shines after being polished. What about the caseback? Did IWC give you anything extra - such as a new box etc.?
Don't get me wrong, I prefer titanium over steel any day.
My point being, a titanium version would be the optimal homage.
However, a matte steel or PVD homage would be better than no homage at...
I appreciate to effort... A little overdue IMO - just me being a little tired of the classical submariner style watches :wink:
I had hoped that someone - possibly Bill Yao from MkIIWatches -...
The Ocean Bund is my grail watch, too
A pity that someone hasn't "picked up the gauntlet" and done some sort of homage and recreated this watch. Even a matte or PVD steel version would be cool,...
Are there any new titanium divers being developed by various watch manufactorers in the near future? Something to look forward to?
I'm really getting tired of the traditional clunky watches with...
Hi,
Has anybody ever modded a Seiko Samurai SBDA00X (i.e. SBDA001, SBDA003 etc.)?
I like the overall shape and dial, but I'm not particulary fond for the knurled crown & bezel. Can these be...
Thank you for the advice :)
"USPS Registered Mail" seems the right way to go (i.e. "Priority MailŪ International" with the Registered Mail service.).
It's my first US watch deal, so I guess I'm...
When using USPS, are we talking about "Express MailŪ International" (even though valuables are prohibited) or just "Priority MailŪ International" ?

Hi,
I've found a private US deal on a watch, however, I have some doubts about which postal service I should choose, USPS, FedEx etc..
I'm located in Denmark. Any tips and recommendations would...
Here my take/hopes on a possible Dreadnougt GMT:
1. a IWC GST-like bracelet with velcro link option
2. a more streamlined case like the Sinn U-series and IWC Aquatimer
(i.e. seamless...
Looking at the newly arrived PRS-18 in the "Precista 93 (PRS-18) arrived - Pics added" thread: http://www.tz-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21071&highlight=prs18 , I was longing for something more...
Can anybody mention some affordable & good looking watches with the winding crown located at the 4 o'clock hour marker, other than Sinn U1/U2/UX?
Thanks,
Michael
Hi,
Looking at the bezel of the PRS-18, I can't help but wish that it had similar bezel to that of the PRS-17 BUT keeping the triangular luminous marker from the PRS-18 bezel.
Does such a bezel...
What about a Speedbird 3 with a titanium case (or a Precista PRS-14 for that matter)?

Hi Eddie,
Great pics of your visit!
Since you're apparently not willing at present to reveal anything about your 5-6 future projects, let me begin to express a hope that a titanium diver will...
I found an interesting 500m watch which goes under quite a few different names. Looks nice, but something worries me about the quality though...

Hi,
The Sinn EZM-2 is a really great watch, and actually one which I'm considering buying.
The watches I'm considering right now are:
Seiko 600M watch 6159-7019 (or any Prospex diver)
Sinn...
Hi Steve,
Can one actually wear it without the shroud or is the bezel loose?
In any case, I hope I'll bump into a similar Seiko 600M watch for a good price. :-)
Purpose or not, I was hoping to find something shaped similar to the PD/IWC Ocean 2000 or your own initial modified design for the Dreadnought ( http://www.prs2dreadnought.com/design.htm )

I'm looking for a minimalistic diver's watch. Can anybody list some affordable diver's watches with the following features/specification:
a) a winding crown at the 4 o'clock position, but WITHOUT...
Hi!
In my search for a watch with similar features as the Dreadnought, I've stumbled upon the Glashutte Rasmus 1000m Diving Watch m1-28-13mb (the"Rusmus" name must be a silly typo).
