I wonder how many dive watches on the forum get replaced with a G-Shock or similar before a 'dip'

Dive in go deeper
Interesting notes as well.
“Possible return” next to the GS ;-)

But the option to go in the deep end of the pool is always there :-)
Nice trio, do you have a favourite!
It’s difficult to pick. There is a lot going for each of them...
SubC is not number one, that I do know!
But that can all be the best one in the right circumstance

Haha! It's nice to have options and you've got three really good ones there - enjoy 👍🏼
I rarely go swimming, but when I do, I wear a watch.
My personal preference on your fine selection would be GS, Rolex and then the Sinn.
I’m now thinking. If I could only have one...
But I can have 3, so that’s fine!
Although I also would keep the GS over the others if I could only own one. The massive clasp fooks me right off but apart from that it’s just lovely.

I used to love the clasp, it balanced the case. Missing the big fella, but I bought the MM300 on SC to fill the BFO diver category ;)
Always fancied that model GS, probably one of the best looking dive watches around..but the size of it puts me off. If only it was 3mm smaller...
Very nice trio, I am just retiring my SD as my work watch, it's still fine in the water, I am just starting to find it difficult to read the date in low light!!!!!!
Will you change to something else, or rely on dive computer (assume you also use one on already)

Would reccomend a Helson Shark diver 40mm to go with those
That is not so bad... there is probably someone out there that does a school run in a BMW M4 GTS.
2 of my dive watches have a combined depth rating of 6,900 metres - and I don't dive!

we don’t use them, someone else runs gas/time, I just like to check how many hours I have left!!
Well, don't feel too bad. At least they get wet - the number of Divers watches that never even go in the shower is incredible!
Even if you did dive hobby divers never pass 40 meters limit,
and at 310 meters you would be in the book of Guinness World Records and would take 15+ hours to ascend safely.
I know! Talk about overkill!
Simon
Guilty as charged!I guess you can swim?

I always swim in all my watches (including my old Speedie Pro) but I am talking splashing about in the sea, a few metres of snorkelling etc.
The idea of having a (modern) watch and being concerned about getting it wet is lost on me.
Plus, I like a robust diver so I can always use one over my fist, as a knuckle-duster, 007 style.
Not going to look as tuff doing that with your Moser are you ;)

How long do you stay under that you need to check the date 🙃
Usually 28 days.
Lovely collection of Diver's there, I have a few old Seiko Diver's that I would not even want to get wet.
It's an age thing. 😉
Fantastic. GS is the top for me, followed by the Sinn, then the Rolex.
Enjoy!

Just had a look at some photos of diving chambers. I wouldn’t last for more than 2 days and that’s without having to do any underwater work. Hats off.
Have you tried one on? I have 6.75in wrists comprised of little more than skin and bone and wear the titanium version (SBGA231) either on its bracelet or a Borealis rubber strap. I've been wearing it non-stop while on holiday for the last two weeks and have barely felt it on the wrist. The lightness, together with the short and downward sloping lugs, mean it sits extremely comfortably even on a small wrist (and I'm pretty anal about this aspect).
No, never tried one.I tend to lean towards 40 mm maximum.( apart from my aerospace evo which is 42 mm)I do like titanium.. and may have to visit the Seiko boutique, in the near future to take your advise.
