Promaster Diver 37 out kayaking.
I think it's the GX-56L-4 solar. I bought it last year at a Casio store in the Philippines. At the time it was the equivalent of $200. I just checked the Casio store and it was priced around $128 on sale, but sold out. I guess these watches lose their value very quickly! It is durable and I took it island hopping, into the ocean and it survived the humid weather like a champ. It can be a pain to charge, so it gets left near a lamp when not in use.
First try with cat.
Second without.

I love tabby cats (with the M for Mouser printed on their foreheads).

Hot in Austria?! Only rain in Belgium. It's really unbearable. With the exception of a handful of days it has rained non stop since the end of October.
Meanwhile I am rotating between the Oriënt Ray and my Seiko snkl.
My translator must have messed up somehow, because I ordered a Vostok instead of the new Orient mako. Can't wait for it to arrive. It's a 40mm case, blue sunburst dial and comes on a nato, which ironically enough is dressed in the colours of the Russian flag.
PS I didn't order it from Russia. Which seemed the only way I could justify the purchase. I still feel a bit in dubio about this, given the current crisis. I hope I am not offending anyone by buying one. I just think they are something special. Something tells me they will only be harder to get hold of. For the record, I am all for peace. Everywhere and anywhere.

I collect watches made by WoR, a small artisan watchmaker based in Portsmouth. All his watches are designed and hand assembled in the UK.
Mr D makes probably the most authentic reproduction military watches on the market. This is his A-11 Bulova reproduction. Facially and in dimension it is identical to the original. It has authentic markings on the back based on historical examples.
Despite having a diameter of 33mm, precisely according to the 1942 spec, it has excellent presence on the wrist.
A great tool watch with 10 atm, a 316 brushed steel case and a sapphire crystal. It has the Seiko VH31 movement for that lovely sweeping second hand motion.

28 degrees for a day, then heavy rains and a drop to 20. That pattern is now ongoing for 2-3 months but 28 was a peak this month.
