    Reissue of 90ies diver.

    If worn beside dive computer it makes perfect sense. Gshock Frogman has similar concept.

    I guess having the crown in such a weird position would make sense if you are actually diving, as it would be hard to dislodge, but that's assuming that that anyone buys Divers watches to dive in!!! Or is it the ultimate in desk-diver cool? Something that makes sense underwater but looks mad in the office!

    It's one of a pretty famous series of watches by the same designer. The chrono versions are most notable for their role in Aliens, when two of the Giugiaro watches were worn. There were also tilted versions (like a drivers watch) and others that were entirely off-centre.

    ETA - I've never considered one for diving - I wear my computer on the other side of my watch, as computers tend to have longer straps and a usually bulkier than a wristwatch.

    I wear computer and compass on my left lower arm, compass closer to my wrist, then my dive watch on my right wrist.

    I like the fact I can read the computer while letting air out of my BCD controlling my ascent.
