What about: Show me your divers>>>>>

As some of you may have noticed, it is the Rolex one of the favorites brand for me. They have some divers to choose
and the most functional in my collection would probably be this 16610 made in 1991.Since I got it is equipped with a maxidial
and its hands, LV insert and crystal with anti-reflection below the cyclop



But many like the classic 5513 without date and with painted indexes. Here is mine with a repainted dial with Luminova.



If you want to hang with painted indexes so're a Red Sub with the date the optimum, from the last quarter of 72 when it was
released with the hacking cal 1570.



Then if you want to be colorful so one can I pick out my own little creation I put together in the house. A white 1680 were killed
when it became blue, nipples, gold & steel, which is a good combination, I think.



Would you still have painted indexes and then the sapphire glass to then have the ultimate diving watch is the one 16660, triple 6 applicable.



Furthermore, we have little brother Tudor also makes diver. A Snowflake from 70 century have become popular again.



The Hydronaut is not so common but I managed to find a TT with carbon fiber dial which is quite unusual.



And Black Bay who came for a couple of years ago to pay tribute to the old models without copying the outright.



Then there are finesse divers from Glashütte Original, which today are not manufactured anymore, unfortunately, luckily I
managed to get the kind of one.



A miscellany of original parts from Omega we have put together.



My only Breitling is one you can dive with.



And finally, a cult watch from Eddie Platts, Dreadnought.



Then I have probably a couple of more in my drawers but we are content with this for so long.

Sorry I missed the comment; Sparknotes make all the difference for me in reading the book. Acts like a road map to prevent getting lost.

Love my divers, a PO 2500 and 14060m, but I'll leave the spotlight to others. All beauties.

I think this is most of the divers I have owned. Missing is a Blancpain 50 Fathoms and my very first, an Omega Seamaster 60. Obviously I can't compete with Jocke's photography skills!
