OMG!! you really weren't kidding when you said it's "PIC HEAVY"!


how deep did it get to?
at least we now know that it IS indeed safe to wear it underwater as much as it is safe to have it in for flight...

The deepest was about 10 feet . I was only snorkeling, not diving with tank.

Diving with a pilot watch, a travesty!

Nice pics, but check that watch for leaks!

Awesome! I can't belive you set your watch on that donut looking coral. I would be afraid of it getting inhaled by a creature of some sort. Well it just looks that way- I'm sure you know what you are doing. Thanks for sharing the pictures!

I had that same thought...

It's a rock solid type of coral and has no soft tissue. But it surely looks weird.

The distant pics of it on the coral and seabed made me nervous

I experienced mixed emotions; the high of you lounging on the beach and seeing that wonderful watch on your wrist, to the low of panic as the possibility of a freak wave or a lurking sea-monster snatching it away

5 stars, would view again

Now you've done it, gotten yourself onto the TRF Sub Mafia's hit list for your act of underwater heresy. Gorgeous watch and pics!
