Looks too busy for my liking but the new models of Planet Ocean are very nice, debating whether to get one with the calibre 8500

Arrived just before the weekend in time for a trip to Exeter and Dartmoor so I got to play with the Altimeter and Depth Meter (in a swimming pool but was pretty damned accurate between 0.4 and 3.5m).

My Suunto arrives tomorrow. I'll try and get some on-arm pics
I have to say I was worried it would be much bigger than this but actually its a nice size, really comfortable and easy to read and use the buttons...and not as orange as it looks in photos either.
Edit: Also forgot to post this pic. Number 6769 of 8848.

I pity you then as my hands are ruined from years of climbing and sailing.
I seem to have ended up with a fair collection of watches.
Current fave daily wearer:
Work Tag for when I'm wearing a suit (Omega is a bit chunky)
Another Tag Automatic
Tag F1
Tag Aquaracer
Another F1
Quite like this - Titanium EcoDrive (out of batteries from the look of it)
Suunto D something or other
...and quite a few others

Had to get rid of a nice ben sherman one due to a very messed up break up and had her and my initials on the back ¬¬ Now have a sekonda, almost same design as old one just rectangular with metal strap not as fancy as half the ones ive seen here, but it does the job ^^
Just got this last week.
nite MX10 300T
this is how it looks in the dark.
hopefully this will stand up to the punishment my old G-SHOCK Mudman G-9000 did.
Very Happy with it so far, a lot less bulky and a lot more discreet.

Well I have only come across Tritium in SUSATs and the standard safety procedure when you break one of those is to open all windows and doors and vacate the area.
Edit. Although the SUSAT uses Tritium gas and I think Tritium is only harmful when ingested or inhaled so painted onto a watch should be fine.

Very safe, it poses no risk whilst in the tubes, and in the very very unlikely event that a tube does break the gas is relatively harmless compared to other radioactive sources and there are only tiny amounts contained in them. just dont hang around sniffing at it

Yeah some people like them. I've had an all black Core, a couple of negative display Pro-Treks and a couple of negative display G-Shocks in the past. I always had trouble reading negative displays in pretty much all light levels, though I also have slight problems with my eyes. A nice big positive display (like the Core) is perfect for me.
