Hey guys anybody know if the Ultimate Arktos has a solid bezel or are the N,S,E,W stuck on with super glue.

AFAIK none of the submersible models have solid bezels, none of the gens either for that matter, they are all either glue/epoxied on or bolted on.
I'd offer to take the bezel off my ultimate 092 and check but its on nicely and the watch is up for sale

I know on the one hand we all like our watches to look as perfect as possible and part of that is looking pristine. I guess that's why at times collecting vintage is kinda kewl. Especially homages as we actually get to intentionally beat them up HAHA or vintagize our watches. Ever put a brand new spotless case in a sack of coins to get that perfectly worn look? Anyways take a look at these Pics of Mike Horn's Arktos OR THE ARKTOS. This bad boy was a work horse. You will of course notice his Gen is missing a marker or two. That should answer the question, and hey if your only missing one marker your not even halfway to recreating a true tool watch.

The watch is one of my Fav-Pam selection. I was wondering about the Noth Pole version aswell? Thanks for info.

The story is pretty entertaining. He had actually set his tent on fire :lol:
