My Invicta 8926OB, no doubt. Whenever I'm in the water, it's in there with me! A great companion to me for sure! No picture, we all know what it looks like!

Noah Fuller's last project (RIP) Custom UDT Froggie. This one is 49/100 ever made. Cant remember the name of the Seal Team member that helped with the design features but he did a great job on making them useful (example: texture on the bezel with very positive clic's and bright pearl).
Love it! Pictures cant tell how great it looks/feels/works. Great diver.

My Omega 2531.80 seamaster professional and my Casio G shock GW 7900 solar powered watch. Whichever one I am wearing it does what I do, swimming in the sea, Workouts, Sauna, cleaning out my pigeon loft, lol both watches are really tough and still look like new.

No problem

If you open the picture in Windows Photo Gallery, there are buttons to either rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. When you are happy with the orientation, simply close WPG to save the picture.

Used to dive with my 14 year old Omega SMP and it got its fair share of bumps and bruises against the boat, rocks, coral and dive tanks and a faded out bezel.


After my latest complete overhaul and a new dial and bezel


I now dive with my trusty Timex Ironman. Takes a lick'in and keeps on tick'in... no more cursing when she kisses any surface she meets.

My last dive trip in St. Lucia 2012:
