1) One you have

2)One would like... Any price range!

Don't tell me you'd turn down an $5K Omega Ploprof for example over a sub $1K Deep Blue or Seiko...

Couldn't be easier... GEEZE!

these "pick one" threads are just too hard

:lol

and i think i'd rather take a PO chrono over a PloProf
I hear ya'... I was just making an example... The Ploprof is not my favorite either but I'd take it over any Deep Blue, any Zixen, any Helson... well you get the picture...
Like what you like and buy what you buy. It's your choice just as it is mine. I don't care if it's a high end brand or status symbol as you may already know. I purchase what appeals to me. If it's a Chinese piece for under $100 bucks and I like it, I buy it. We all have our own strategies for what we purchase. You get the picture.

I'm not Joe Diver, but I like my Debaufre Triton. Very beefy piece.

Right now this one has caught my eye.

The Roger Dubuis Easy Diver column wheel chronograph. 46mm.

The 2 I posted were ones I actually might get. If we are talking about any then I would go with a Girard-Perregaux Sea Hawk II.

Rob - Is it the rose gold FF that you want or any version of FF?

I like the SS version and would love to own one!

I know we have a thread somewhere on the forum about this watch Rob, but what is the movement in that one?

I would really like the Rosegold version, the movement is the 1315.

- Self-winding
- 5-day power-reserve
- 3 mainspring barrels
- Glucydur free sprung balance gold regulation screws

My favorite diver that I own is this killer, the M45 from Zenton:

A diver that I'd really like to own is a Formex DS2K with a Valjoux movement. I'd also like a diver with the Miyota 9015 movement, too, and plan to pick up the Android Silverjet 500 from SNBC if it isn't too large (in case diameter and in price).

For a little fantasizing, this Eterna Kon Tiki diver would look really good on my wrist some day, too:

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm - Man I want that one someday. Hot!

Hopefully you will get your dream someday TVDinner. It's a great watch. I would enjoy wearing it everyday but all the others would be jealous. No wrist time. Thanks for the complement.
