What time is it? Watches and horology

Timing with a divers watch is more about decompression stops as the more time spent at a certain depth = longer decompression stops on the way back up.

Depth and tank pressure gauges are attached to regs. Most diving is no-decomp recreational. The bezels are used to track elapsed dive time and safety stop time. You need both so you can work out your pressure group, so you can work on surface intervals so you know when you can go back down for the next one. It's all on a table but we dive with nitrous so it's all dive computer anyway.

How much air is in the tank is not a simple factor of time and will vary massively according to exertion.

Physiology play a part too. I am an "air hog" and have to dive with 15 litre tanks or everyone else has to go up early. Does not make you popular with the dive group.

I have never dived, as you can tell. :)

can't image many modern divers look towards a dive watch for life saving timing, when digital watches/ dive computers are a thing.

it’s a modified Pelagos

Calling it a modified Pelagos kinda doing it a disservice as the case is very different

Official look

edit: sorry for the @, it was unintentional)

I like it.
Not sure it should have the Pelagos name, should just be the Tudor Marine Nationale FXD

Would probably choose the regular Pelagos over this one (obvious bias)

The Mido Ocean Star Decompression Timer also has a countdown bezel:

I find it midly annoying as I find a timer bezel much more useful and quite like the watch otherwise :-)

I like it too, I even like the fixed bar so you’re stuck with strap.

New pelagos. Big like

At least its not another fucking Black bay .........
Ant they will be impossible to buy until probably 2024.

And it's no Seamaster 300 diver.

Did I say I was a huge snoopy fan.

n+1 in my case.

Can you not find a bezel insert separately? Probably easier to do with some Seiko's given the mod space.

Quite like the new Pelagos FXD, prefer my regular Pelagos LHD though.

stuck with strap

:(

Why impossible to buy ?

Shame they left off the gated chapter ring detail. Best bit of the pelagos imo.

Bunch of pretty sweet new G-Shocks just landed.

etc.

There'll be a waiting list for a few months, nothing worse than that. All the previously "hot" new Tudors (BB GMT, BB58 blue) were "hard to get" for a short while but are all now widely available. I reckon this will probably be more available than the BB58 blue was simply because most buyers want a bracelet on this type of watch.

Would anyone have any interest in this watch winder. Came with my black bay and honestly won't be used. I've turned it on to make sure it works.. comes complete..
