Glad you liked the video. My dad wore his watch on the right wrist, and as a kid, I wanted to be like my dad. So I wore (and now wear) a watch on my right wrist =)

Love the Darth Tuna =)

Glad you liked it =)

Thank you =)

Thank you. And yes... The chapter ring was inline, not something that can be said for all Seikos LOL =)

What really surprised me, was how much smaller they wear. Yes, it's a thick watch, but sits on the wrist quite nicely =)

I have mm300 and mm1000 and 600m something about them that I just love 👍🐟

@@garrettholcombe4915 - I’d suggest the Casio ‘Marlin’ or Citizen Promaster Diver. Both great watches for little money. I’ve taken both of them underwater and you’ll find their videos on this channel.

Automatic =)

Yes and no. It depends =)

Thanks for your comment Gary, Bovisands is a beautiful place to take an underwater watch underwater. Fond memories =)

Thanks for your comment, I remember being pleasantly surprised by this watch. I thought it was very good value for money =)

Oh, that's a nice watch you've got. CWC watches are worth so much more than they cost. Really quality. Love back from the UK =)

What do you think about the Citizen Promaster BN0151?

@underwaterwatchesunderwater that citizen is great! I had this watch in black for a couple year until a gave it to my father. He didn't want to mess about with automatics or batteries and this is the perfect watch for him. Next time I will try the blue one.

@@surfside75- I loved the blue one. Really good blue. Don't tell anyone, but I was a bit disappointed with the blue on the Tudor Pelagos. And the blue on the Casio Marlin... Wow! Yeah, I got a bit of a thing for blue-faced watches =)

Thank you for your kind words Joseph, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Just wish I had more time to get in the sea and more money to buy watches =)

Thanks for your comment. I got my CWC SBS watch 12 years ago for my 40th birthday. It has never missed a beat and never let me down. I adore it. I hope you get to take yours under the water soon =)

Thank you =) The Panerai situation kinda wiped out my funds. Plus I got into motorcycles too. I'll try to get more UWU vids done next season.

Very =)

Thank you @RandomPersonAJ - Glad you liked the video. Hoping to make more soon =)

Thanks for your comment Jack, you're right, the Citizen Pro Master is a lot of watch for the money. I wish I'd kept mine =)

Thanks for your comment. This is a fantastic watch and the orange dial version looks awesome. You're gonna love it =)

Thank you for your comment. The Omega Planet Ocean is an absolute gem or a watch. Wish I'd kept mine now =)

Thank you for your comment. To be honest, I've never really considered what could happen if sand gets into the mechanism of the uni-directional bezel. Personally, if I was using the feature, once it had been set I wouldn't touch it again until I surfaced. Because the point is to let you know how much time you've got left in your tanks (not a problem I face). And... I always rinse my watches in tap water when I get home. So any traces of salt water (and sand) are removed. I did a video on this. Thanks again for your comment. =)

@@underwaterwatchesunderwater The fact is that I now have a need to buy a real diving watch. I am not going to use them for full diving, but I plan to actively snorkel in them, and also be on the beach, where the wind blows and there is a lot of sand. Therefore, there is a high risk that sand or other dirt can get into the mechanism of the unidirectional bezel, if not in the water, then on the beach. I searched the Internet for information about this kind of problem, but did not really find it. I believe that people may be too lazy to write and describe their problems of a similar kind, so I had the idea to ask practicing swimmers if they encountered such problems ?!

@@underwaterwatchesunderwater The rotating bezel mechanism has moving parts that do not fit snugly and have a minimum technological opening between them, which can get sand or other dirt and disable the mechanism. I don't know why this potential problem is not properly covered, but theoretically and logically it can exist and can cause a lot of trouble to the owner of a diving watch!

@@ERKENSSON - In theory, what you describe could be a problem. In practice, I've never heard of it happening. It's certainly never happened to me or any of the folks I know. And as for snorkeling, it isn't going to be a safety issue. And if you were scuba diving, you'd probably have modern equipment with you and wouldn't solely be depending on the bezel on your watch. My advice is to rinse your watch under tap water after every exposure to snorkeling. That way you minimise saltwater damage and can get rid of any grit/sand/dirt in the mechanism. And... Depending on how much you spend on your watch... In my experience, it's never that difficult to remove the bezel, clean any gunk out and replace it. Enjoy your swimming =)

Thank you, Kenneth. I'll try. Finances have been whacked recently due to the world situation. New snorkeling season coming up, gonna have to decide which way to go with the watches. Stay tuned =)

I couldn't say from personal experience, but it is rated to 200m. It has a wind down crown and screw case back, so I have no reason to doubt it. Anyone know if it's ISO 6425 rated?

20 metros como máximo aproximadamente

@@underwaterwatchesunderwateryour lack of knowledge in both watches and water surprises me, considering your name. Wannabe Jacques Cousteau lmao

​​@@alberts1996wrong ! someone RUclipsr and professional diver also use it & test its dive into the deep almost 200 meter

Aye, she's a lovely watch alright. I do miss mine =)

Way to go GMan! Keep up the good work =)

True words. Thanks for sharing =)

No discolouration during my ownership. Whenever I take a watch into the sea, I always make sure to give it a nice long rinse in tap water to get rid of any salty sea water.

Yikes! That must have really sucked =(

Thanks Jazzy - I promise you I'd be more comfortable wearing a real Bluesey in the sea than I would in the street LOL =)

Truth...

Thanks Daryl, only snorkelling, so not too much pressure =) It's a very good watch for the money **Thumbs Up**

Lol pressure tested at 5 feet underwater? LMAO 😂😂

Thank you, that's very kind of you. My early Christmas wish would also be for me to do the two-tone Rolex Bluesy. Never, say never, but I think it might be a while before I get to that level. Just about ready to sell the Panerai and based on how much I get for that, will dictate what Underwater Watch gets taken underwater next =)

I don't see why not. Check the Water Resistance rating for the watch and if it's got one... You're good to go. Just always make sure your crown is screwed down when you go in the water =)

Hey, thank you! You're very kind =)

Personally... I was a little underwhelmed with the Pelagos. It's very nice, but... I don't know, so far on this journey my favourite watch has been the Omega Planet. That is gorgeous =)

Thanks Mister T =) Yeah... Panerai seem to have dropped the ball a few times which is a shame. Cuz I remember the first time I saw one and it blew my mind =)

Hi, thanks for your comment. There was a thread on this about 6 years ago on the watchuseek forum. The general consensus of opinion is that they're the same watch. With the -17L being most available in the European web shops and the -09L being the international/US variant. Something about the market designation. Whichever one you get, you're getting a lot of watch for the money. Highly recommend it =)

@@underwaterwatchesunderwater that's great, thanks, I thought maybe one was a different shade of blue. Thanks again Jason

A bold claim... But I can live with it =) Thanks for your comment.
