Watches - another OCD problem

[Graeme]

@Danimal506 the carbon model is significantly more expensive than the (contemporary) steel model too. That's why I don't think the fixed bezel was done for cost savings, and hence it's more likely to be for technical reasons.

I do like both versions, and I don't think that the fixed bezel would dissuade me from the carbon.

The new member in the family, or another completly unnessesary purchase, as my wife would say.

Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 2200.50 from 2010. I just love the old Planet Oceans so mich more then the new ones.

Love that.....

@Cole Sweet watch, Cole.

You should tell your wife that it is necessary as now you can dive to 600m and not lose track of time and be on time for date night.

What's the screw on the top left? I have not seen that before.

[Giles]

It is a Helium escape valve...

@Graeme I also like the carbon version, very handsome watch.

I would also, like you, assume it is for technical reasons they have not implemented a rotating bezel.

Bit of a shame really considering that Tudor have managed to manufacture a carbon case with a rotating bezel on the FXD Alinghi models.

@Giles speaking of that, I keep seeing trailers for a movie

with Woody Harrelson that appears to be about an ill-fated saturation dive. I am intrigued. Guessing there will be dive watch cameos.

[Giles]

I suspect their will. But I wan't be watching it, I don't need to scare myself shitless

@Giles Aha! Thanks Giles.

Looks like a feature that Q could modify for James Bond to shoot a poison dart or pour a (weak) martini.

@Cole that’s a lovely watch
