Ohhhhhh very very nice indeed, superb DOXA 8) 8) 8)
Never really liked the look of these, a bit quirky, but gradually the need to own one became too strong and I took delivery of this beauty earlier in the week.
Haven't dived in it yet, but will be putting that right on Boxing Day. First impressions:
Like
Case fits really nicely on the wrist
Bracelet is very flexible and the clasp is solid
Has a fair heft to it although doesn't feel unbalanced on the wrist
Bezel is easily turned (tested with 5mm neoprene gloves)
Legibility of hands against the dial is outstanding
Jury still out on
Markings on the bezel not the easiest to read, nowhere near as easy as say a sub. Will be interesting to test is murky viz
It's the first non-silver or black dial that I've owned and it's definitely different (not in a bad way)
Will try and post some photos of it in action after Christmas.
Ohhhhhh very very nice indeed, superb DOXA 8) 8) 8)
Cheers

Well done, I'll look forward to hearing how you get on.
STUNNING!!! The 750 is a GREAT watch and I suspect you will really like wearing it.
Excellent choice, truly iconic

Great choice - love my 750 Pro.
Have to admit though that I've only dived mine at Nemo33 in Belgium.
Normally wear my Orsa on a long NATO over my drysuit when diving.
Very 8)
Looks nice, congrats 8)
I haven't caught the Doxa bug yet, despite my mate Simona's propaganda :D, but I am slowly warming to them :)

Allow me to reproduce this photograph of the manufacturing team celebrating your choice:
very nice looking watch
Very nice.

Very nice!The orange dial really does look stunning :wink:
Gets my vote 8)
If only these things came with a bezel in meters and not feet I would probably have several, really nice looking pieces otherwise.
Some one has spend a lot of cash on a new watch which he is clearly happy with - why don't you just grow up a bit eh? Very very boring :roll:Originally Posted by DeusIrae
You haven't been around here long enough to realise the humour in that image. Newbies. Always shooting from the hip and missing wildly.Originally Posted by Stuart D
I have though and it does wear a bit thin after a few dozen times of the same old joke-like the Rolex and cyclops thing :roll:Originally Posted by DeusIrae
Suits your wrist Dave, enjoy it :wink:
I agree, I have seen that picture far too many times now. Its also rather irrelevant, the 750GMT I had was a much better made watch then the Sinn EZM3 I had. I miss the Doxa and would happily buy another one (preferably secondhand though).Originally Posted by emgee
They do, the one on the right.Originally Posted by simonsev
Yep am aware of those, want a new one with meters though.................just put me down as hard to please.... :mrgreen:Originally Posted by Gunscrossed

Disagree.Originally Posted by DeusIrae
It's one thing to post those funny pics on a general discussion about Doxa, but doing so on someone's new watch thread is not cool :?
Bollocks. They shouldn't be so sensitive. Cool or not. Sensitivity is they key point here.Originally Posted by GraniteQuarry
Sensitivity my ar&e! :lol: get some new material that is actually funny and I for one will laugh all night long, using a second hand joke in this fashion is not only lame but a bit crass IMO.
Respect is the key point here. Anyway, it's pointless arguing, you're the lawyer so you know-it-all :POriginally Posted by DeusIrae
Ken oath, but I do bow down for your perversion (Boys' Room..)............Originally Posted by GraniteQuarry
No need for new material. You simply have no sense of humour. It's OK. Some of us forgive you. Not me, as only PC twats would forgive you. :twisted:Originally Posted by emgee
Guilty as charged :twisted:Originally Posted by DeusIrae
You don't even know me so how you can say I've no sense of humour is beyond me :roll: ; I just hope you're a decent enough lawyer so we don't have to worry about you starving this Christmas, as your hash up of old material might be a sign that stand up is not your area of expertise. And as for implying that I'm pc ; well, that is way off the mark :lol:Originally Posted by DeusIrae
ps. and by the way, swearing in an open forum is also not very clever chap; some members have young ones that read these threads you know, or don't you care about that either? As someone pointed out earlier, it's about respect.
You really think that 'twat' is swearing? Like I said, no sense of hunour. You really need to be here for a few more years here before mouthing off like a puritan. (Then we can all laugh at you.)Originally Posted by emgee
Lovely, I hope to join you in owning one of these next year! :lol: EnjoyOriginally Posted by Manxdiver
For goods sake man stop digging an even bigger hole for yourself. Frankly the only person impressed by your pompous attitude is you.Originally Posted by DeusIrae
Throw out some bait and what happens?
Hook, line and sinker.
Gosh, that really does look nice. Always felt that that Doxa dials looked a bit on the small size but that one certainly doesn't. Enjoy.
