Damn you guys. Now I find myself wanting to buy a Seiko. Never thought I'd say that.


Do it. You know you want to. I actually ordered one the other night. Should be there when I get home today.
Which one did you order? This might help me get over Kay's closing. Well, not, but any excuse to buy another knock around...

Blue Superocean or Seamaster? This is the sh#t that keeps me up at night.

Seamaster if I have to pick, but I think the better questions are, how many dive watches does one need? Is there a reason to have more than one unless your collection is in the mid teens?

How many watches of a certain type does someone need? As many as they want. It's like guns, the right number is n+1.

how many watches costing over $1000 does one need? pretty sure the answer is zero.

If I had an unlimited budget for watches, I would have several dive watches.

I would imagine one should have as many dive watches as they like and their budget for watches allows.

Its sweet. Pictures don't do it justice. Its got a slighty domed sapphire crystal that is hard to capture.

If the Rolex Yachtmaster, GMT IIc, Omega Seamaster, Speedmaster (3), Panerai Marina, and Tudor Black Bay are considered "dive watches", then most of mine are. Guess I just like how they look over dress watches. I guess I don't know what qualifies as a dive watch. I think of them more as "sports watches"

Your Speedmasters aren't in the dive category, really, but the rest are.

Hey tough guy - unless your name is Hans Wildorf, John Goldberger, or Jean-Claude Biver, your opinion is worthless.

I love dive watches and always have - and I use the bezel frequently when I'm trying to stay focused on a task for at least 25 minutes (i.e. the Pomodoro technique). Frankly, I'm far less productive on days I'm not wearing a divers watch.

I have a question for all of you guys with multiple watch collections.

What do you do to keep them all wound / the time set? Do you use one of those automatic watch winders? Or do you not do anything, and just set the time again each time you wear one you have not worn in a while.

Sure do

Similar to this except for 8 watches.

I don't bother with the winders. It takes about 15 seconds to set the things.
