Unfortunately, I'm not an underwater photographer. I am an avid photographer on land, but it's just not something I want to do while I'm diving.

Wow, nice doubles! Where are you diving and what’s the profile?

I’m a wreck diver and like to travel to far off places to dive (some of them somewhat dicey) so my cheap Seiko is my trusted companion (if it gets damaged or stolen it’s not the end of the world).

However when I first got my Submariner many years ago it accompanied me on a wonderful week long dive trip to Little Cayman (Bloody Bay wall is everything it’s hyped about and more).

Have a great time!

It may not be one of the big boys. It may not have a helium escape valve. But it made it to 97 ft on its maiden dive. It saw lots of anemone--mostly white, but some orange. The dive ended with a very VERY interested rat fish.

Still dead on with time.gov.
