1K Meter Deep Blue Diver Lots of Pics

[Hogan]

Just picked this beauty up (ok, a buddy of mine picked it up for me) from the Deep Blue Watch Co. or linked thru Panatime. This is a very, very nice watch! She's a biggen too! Easily can be worn with jeans or going casual (polo w/sports jacket & dress/kaki pants).
Each watch comes with a year warranty and is individually numbered on the case back. They only make 1000 copies, once their gone their gone! Grab one while you can!! You will not be disappointed!

Specs:
316L stainless steel
Sapphire crystal
Double o-ringed case back while the crown is triple o-ringed...w/helium valve
Movement is the Miyota 8205 21J auto w/a 45 hour power reserve. Same movement in many Seiko's and some Citizens. A very robust movement.
Dial is about 30mm
Case dia. about 45mm
Case dia including crown: almost 50mm
Weight: About 18oz.
Bracelet uses pins for removing links and is very comfortable to wear!
Price according to Deep Blue Watch Co. website...$249.

Watch even comes with a very nice carrying case with an extra compartment for either another watch or strap..... All Deep Blue Watches come with a warranty card and Limited One Year Warranty.

Now for the lume shots:

This first pic was taken 15 min after being outside for 5 min while I was taking pics. I noticed the lume will fade a little more then this but is still very legible after 4 hours!!

After a 10 second charge from a 2.5 million candle watt flash light you can see it is amazing!!

Thanks for posting these pics.

I held one of these bruisers at a GTG. It's a heck of a value, IMO. Too big for my spindly wrist, though.

 

[Hogan]

Thanks!

Bang for the buck you can't go wrong with this watch! Dare I say I like it more then my DSSD V3!!!!

It's fairly common to see prices of $450-$550 and up for the "boutique" watches like this one (Miyota movement), and more for the eta movement, of course. Some won't even be 1000M.

You know, I may have just talked myself into getting one! :cool2:

Well Tommy, it's really nice to get a good quality watch without breaking the bank. The dimensions might seem big, but it does not wear much bigger then my Omega SMP. IMO

Thats a nice one I might have to pull the trigger on the orange one:cool2:

 

[Hogan]

CRK, that orange is growing on me. Time to sell more stuff on the bay!

Thats a nice watch. It looks beefy, too, which I like!

Great diver there. Congrats and price makes it a hell of a deal.

Thats a nice watch. It looks beefy, too, which I like!

I like the fact it weights as much as my Roli DSSD V3 but will fit under my cuff. And has a warranty!

Looks a lot like the orange version of one of my favorite (and by far most worn) watch:

And even more like his older brother:

But at about the same price, I'd say you found a very nice watch.
