Been in love with this watch since I saw it for the first time in a magazine ad when I was about 10 years old. Looked like something from outer space compared to other watches at that time. Still does. Came very close to buying one several times. Still find myself looking for one from time to time. Just have not been daring enough to see myself actually wearing one. So I stick to my speedy pro, sub no-date and milgauss.

@jefferyneu3915
6 жыл бұрын
Robert Hodge hold down the release button with the middle finger and turn the bezel with the index finger and thumb. It would be unacceptable not to be able to turn the bezel on wrist. Divers get in the water, set their bezels and descend together. Taking it off in the water would result in too high a risk of losing a precious watch to the deep. For example, right off shore in Grand Cayman, the depth drops to 3,000 feet. The watch is gone forever if lost in those conditions.😨

Watching the bezel closely, it looks like a 60 click. I think that is actually superior tp 120 click as it will never fall between minutes for actual dive timing. Traditional clicking unidirectional bezels with 60 click dials were really loud and crude in their movements. Please take another look. I will be happy to admit it if I am wrong. I am just noting what I observe in your video. I love this watch and would already own it if my wrists were bigger. Now I have gained weight and could wear it, but finances have changed. I would have loved diving with a Ploprof. I do not believe having an observation back would encourage leaks. The front crystal demonstrates ability to have a water resistant crystal.

The real question is how would you press that button and turn the crown one handed? I assume it would be on your wrist when you do that because you know, that's where watches go. Edit: 5:00 look at the indent on his finger. It must take lots of force to release the crown.

Hi JA - Was just thinking a few day ago that Omega's could encompass a one brand extensive collection. I like this piece, esp on the tool like mesh. Would be cool to wear this Battleship piece when you visit the USS Iowa when in LA and lunch is on me. Have a vintage Seamaster (circa 66 on original mesh) and a recent Breightling Diver on their beautiful Milanese which is just too damn pretty to get wet. As to this Breitling, I like the flash aspect of it. Best, JP

Actual saturation divers aren’t wearing those on the job, I know one who always wears a Casio like the AE1200WH. Even if he breaks one every job it still wouldn’t come close to the pain of breaking one multi thousand dollar watch, Murphy gets his in the end even watches with He escape valves can pop open it’s not a sure bet. Mostly they all just use watches to keep track of their home time so they know when they can talk to the family.

I heard that Omega decided not to have a Helium escape valve on this watch and opted instead just to make it 100 times more air tight than a space capsule! Maybe you could check and see if there is a valve on this version? I also have doubts about that plunger to release the bezel, I struggle to see how that could be deployed easily on the wrist when diving and having to time a decompression stop.
