New IWC aquatimers with external bezel?
Is it true that IWC is going to no longer use their famous internal bezel design? I saw some photos on the IWC web site in the novelties section with a more traditional bezel on them and remembered my AD saying something about a change in design for the aquatimers.I thought the internal bezel was the ugliest thing i had ever seen when i first saw it. Now i think its awesome. i hope they are not changing it.especially since i have yet to save the funds to buy one. and this economy is not helping....

need halp with my Zodiac ZO5526
first thing, do you guys think this is a quality watch or did i waste my money lol, ok, i ordered this:(non-sponsor link removed)it says it is titanium on the site but i think they might have sent me their stainless steel model. on the clasp it is labeled stainless steel and i nicked the inside of my bad just a little to see it it was really titanium. it was uber easy to nick it so im guessing it is indeed stainless. A: how do i tell if it is stainless or titaniumB: if it is the stainless model, can i get that site to exchange it for my watch to get the titanium. i love this watch but i woul dlike it to be as sturdy as possiblealso, is it possible the site lied about the material the watch is made out of? thanks for help

ap ceramic diver as daily wear?
Hey everybody. This is my first post and i'm sorry if this topic has been discussed before. I would like to ask for your opinion of the ceramic diver as a daily wear. Will it be to fragile to endure the task of being a daily wear? I mainly work behind a desk but plan to wear the watch for clubbing, swimming, light diving, etc. My other concern is the weight. do you think it will be too heavy for daily wear? i currently own the novelty ss for my weekend watch and i dont think i can handle that sort of weight for my daily watch.
