The Bathyscaphe without hesitation for me.

Thank you all!

I believe I’m set to hunt for my next timepiece. The BP Bathyscaphe. I feel BP is the watch I would plan on keeping. BB58 is an excellent watch too.

I like the date window location as I seen in watches like Seiko and Nomos offer watches with date window at 4’o clock. Also I watched some reviews and made me realize the hands reflects heritage and lume is amazing in the dark. Amazing looking dial and killer 100-hrs power reserve. :)

Thank you all!

Good choice - the Bathy is the more special and interesting watch

Why did you sell the Explorer out of interest - did you just want to change it for a diver?

I would need buy pre 904L watch or maybe give new OP a try? Hence is why I sold it.

Great choice! Pretty sure the rotor is WG too.
