Dievas Oceantimer 1330 Blue Is Nice Budget Diver Watch
There is a lot of competition out there for your diving watch dollars. With so many options, it is hard for us to find that single diving watch that will suffice. Well, for me there is no one watch. Instead I try to stretch my budget out to acquire as many diving watches as I can to satisfy that insatiable hunger. So for that I am happy that Dievas has a nice range of aggressively prices diving watches that embody the modern chic-strong look that many diving watches are adopting.The Oceantimer 1330 Blue has...a metallic blue face, large red toned minute hand, and a striking legibility. The maximum sized minute hand is supposed to allow for supreme visibility under water, and just looks cool. While it is hard to tell in the images, the minute hand is a rich red metallic tone with lots of luminant in the middle. The smaller hour and seconds hand are while, also with luminant.The Dievas doesn't feel the need to make a "huge" watch, so the size of the Oceantimer 1330 is a very sober 42mm.

Recommendations for Oris Watch Service?
Can anyone suggest a watchmaker to service my Oris Small Seconds Diver? It keeps great time when hand wound but will sometimes stop while wearing it or on the winder. It's around 4+ years old and probably due for a general service and cleaning. But I dread the idea of sending it to an Oris authorized service center because it could be gone for 3-4 months based on what I know of owners sending in their timepieces for OEM service.PM's are welcome and appreciated on this subject. If there is a watchmaker here on the forum who knows the Oris movements, that would be a bonus.

Seiko Black Ion Diver Questions
Hi to all, new here and interested in collecting. How durable is the Black Ion finish on this Seiko SKA427P1 kinetic diver? How do you like the watch itself, in either SS or Black Ion? I have a Black Monster and I'm thinking this kinetic diver in a black finish is a nice variant. How does this finish hold up on a daily wear watch?Borrowed photo:

The WTF Traveling Mascot makes a day trip!
I took our Mascot to work a few days ago.Today he took a ride to Sam's shop with me. Oh boy, into the big city!Parked on 8th, and here we are turning the corner onto Jeweler's Row (Sansom between 7th and 8th):Hanging around with a few of his distant cousins:Here he is mugging for the camera with Sam's IWC hybrid:On the way back home, I figured I show you guys a common sight here in Philly: the PPA hard at work giving out parking tickets!Sam put on the rubber strap for the OM (thanks max! )I should have set the time & date , but it was only a comfort test. This is Police Headquarters on the corner of Race & 7th. The most interesting feature of this building can only be seen from above - it looks like handcuffs! On the way home.I'll see if I can get some fireworks shots, and maybe Mascot will go out for a beer in one of my favorite places.
