    Well, if the tunnel floods, you may drown, but at least your watch will survive!!!

    I suppose there is an upside to everything???

    OP these do look to be a great everyday watch. Does the PADI version have a lumed bezel? It looks really nice with the steel shroud

    Looks nice.
    Did you replace the shroud?

    Thanks. They're an excellent every day watch, I love mine. It's also very versatile as I switch between nato, rubber and bracelet. The bezel is lumed and is actually the first watch I've owned that has dual-colour lume to distinguish the 15 minute segment and the hands. Very clever!

    I bought the shroud from a company that's well regarded in the modding world, Stitches & Buckles, and I'm very very pleased with the fit and finish.

    I have one of these (still standard), love this look with the shroud and blue nato though, very nice.

    Thanks. It’s actually a Phoenix Admiralty Grey nato that looks blue in this pic. This is it tonight in natural light:

    Still cool, digital photography throws up some weird colours sometimes.

    Terrible photo but this is the lume. Minute hand and red quarter on the bezel are one colour and the rest another.
