AP Diver... in it's element!

After reading so many of those "is it safe to..." regarding our watches, I wanted to know, is is safe to dive a shipwreck with a Diver?

Here after the dive with my son in Cancun, Mexico.

I'm wearing my AP Diver and he is wearing his (formerly mine) Marathon.

Cheers!

Wow that is the ultimate AP diver test. Most of these don't even make it to the deep end of a pool. Awesome pictures ! Looks like a great time.

Great pix!!! Not sure how smart it is to get the Diver wet, but whatever, it's your watch.

Thank you all for your kind words! The watch performed like a champ. By the way, the lume in the darker parts of the ship was very bright after being out in the sun.

Now I don't have to wonder if it's ok to wash my hands with it on... ;)
