[frankpower88]

here are some pics of my gen prodiver date for comparaison
it wear about like a SA on my 7.5 inch wrist

notice that i have brushed the entire bracelet after 2 days i got it. it looks more like a tool watch and thats what it is.

That rep Oris looks like it's going to swallow the DSSD!! And the DSsD is a tall watch.... HUGE!!

@ Frankpower88, Beautiful watch, you must be very proud to wear it.

That gen bezel really shines! Its quiet beautiful.

Balad that side view of the wrist shot is insane. Makes the dssd look like a sub. Hows the balance feel? Does is stay centered on the wrist or do you find yourself adjusting all the time?

Of course it's larger and heavier then the DSSD that I normally wear but I like it.

Not sure, to be honest.

There is a gen that isn't a Chronograph and is 49mm rather than 51mm. Word on the street is that it is in the process of being repped. Here is gen info until then:

Cool!! You know you could probably seal the rep tighter than a frogs butt. I'd definitely have my eye on one of these if "they" rep one. :thumbsup:

An interesting example of the limits (or not ??) of reps.

This watch was never meant to be worn on the street. It is a pure dive watch meant to sit under deep water outside your wetsuit.

If (and that is a big if) you can manage to get it properly waterproofed, do so. Then keep in in your dive bag and use it while inspecting wrecks in the coral reef.

Otherwise wear something else.....

Personally I would never trust my life to a rep, WR or not.

But it sure looks cool and wears well, lol.
