Ha ha, your "I would die if I don´t own it feeling" is my "would I regret it (later) when not having this watch". Thank you for your thoughts, very much appreciated. Warmest regards, Bobbe [nt]
Ha ha ha! Great Bobbe! That´s similar feeling in a different way of expressing it!Lol! Appreciate your thoughts too and nice to chat watches with you! Appreciate so much! Abel [nt]
Here's one of my favorite modern dive watches. Not much to add or subtract, nothing superfluous in the design - well, save for a few lines too much text on the dial, perhaps.
An iconic design that works, therefore so often copied or borrowed from. Of course the earlier (now vintage) references are even better in this regard, but would not take them for diving any more. : ) Also, really like your JLC divers!
Hello Jlux!! I also love dive watches! They look cool and...

... they are sturdy, reliable and always ready to be used in any conditions and environments.
Since the mid 1960’s I’ve been using several of mine for many decades in sport scuba diving even if in my last years of practicing this sport dive computer ruled conventional watches out I still like the peace of mind of viewing my trusty dive watch on my wrist.
I own many which are ready to dive tomorrow and others which are kept as vintage (like I am myself) and will never be diving again.
Here I share part of my collection:
Sublime pictures you share of your wonderful collection!!
Hello dear Tony! Thanks a lot my friend, you are very kind. Appreciate so much your compliments. Scuba diving and diving history has been a passion since I was very young...

... so diving watches are some kind of "natural" object of devotion to me. Diving watches are also a most practical type of timepiece in any circumstances... may be with the only exception of a very formal attire event (except if our name is Bond, James Bond! Lol!)
Thank you so much again for your kind message my dear Tony! Abel.
