That watch is just so cool. One of my favorite divers.
About the PloProf, it has a face only a true tool watch fanatic could love!
Have a good week.

OK Mike...

the Ploprof is my personal favorite among the vintage divers, but mine was still at service when I took the picture... I guess I will have to take another shot with the Ploprof, and why not the Seamaster 1000m while we're at it ... Ooops and the Comex wil...

Perhaps 2 categories: tool diver icons - ploprof, comex sub and an issued BP. Then all around wearable and classy divers, which are the amazing three you posted. By the way, please post a pic of the 1000. I love that watch - such a beast! And it is intere...
Here's the Seamaster 1000m

the full review is in the Omega forum. I have to speak to my shrink about liking the Ploprof so much. It is definitely ugly ;-) ...
