I bought this on amazon. I have been using it since January. It's cheap, waterproof and shows just the information you need and no more. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F3RCJNB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I lost a decent watch overboard while sailing many moons ago and since then have used whatever $20 buys for watersports where you might lose a watch.
I've been using a Casio Forester for about 15 years now and it has gone through about three battery changes. Trick is to use silicone grease on the o-ring and it stays water tight. JB - I have some glycines...they are a damn good watch at any price point. I like both the airmen and the combat subs. I like the 46mm as it is big and clear and is a solid 300m watch, but the 42mm is what i wear more as it is a reliable EDC watch and takes a beating. Accuracy is as good or better than watches costing $4k+ with COSC. All are within +/- 5 spd. Great for a house ETA or Sellita movement. If they came out with a Ti 42mm combat sub I'd buy it in a heartbeat. BTW - the guys on the EOD teams i work with use mostly g-shocks or glycines/other affordable swiss diver type watches/Eco-Drive divers and they beat the crap out of their watches. It is kinda fun doing a knife/watch check and see what they pull out. The days of rolexes in the average joe's hands are over. Overpriced and good for flash, but not more accurate or durable than any other decent brand. Hard to justify laying down the Rolex tax these days when omega, tudor, etc. are all just as oood or better. Anyway, still use my 20 buck casio for surfing ------------------------- If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph: THE ONLY PROOF HE NEEDED FOR THE EXISTENCE OF GOD WAS MUSIC - KV Edited: 09/18/2022 at 02:04 PM by Bamboo |
