My second pick up of the summer... a Laventure Sous-Marine...

Feels great on the wrist with an amazing FKM rubber strap

I love the bronze case and bezel... the brushed and mirror polish was great too!

The color shade change of the dial in the light is fun and a pleasure to observe

Here are a few pictures I took

Kind of a mix between Panerai, Rolex and Audemars Piguet. It is a little known brand that I have been taking a look at. By the way, that road looks adventurous. Can I ask where is it? Do you like off road? Best. René

Hi Renè, thank you for your compliment,

the watch indeed has aesthetics from all that you mentioned, a Rolex layout dial executed with a panerai sandwich dial AP style lugs and brushed surfaces... Nautilus ears.... yet it feels and looks like a complete individual to me. The road you speak of i...

From Veracruz provincial state. My region is called the high mountains because, being a tropical province, we have the highest mountain in the country named “Pico de Orizaba” (Orizaba’s Peak 5,610m. Orizaba is my home city). With a green and lush vegetati...

I love the steel version but since I have held out on getting a bronze watch this long... I thought I would go through the experience with a great looking one too, it’s only day 2 so far! And loving it

Very cool shots. [nt]

I was introduced to the brand by your post of a few weeks ago, and admired your first example. But this one is even more impressive. A bold watch, but you can carry it off. It looks great on your arm! I also admire the photo with your father. I miss mine.... 

The first example was a crisp clean soldier while this one I feel is more ready for combat! 😄... both marine and sous-marine wear differently yet have so much in common....

I’m sure your dad misses you too! As for a watch that reminds you of him.... you have plenty of mirrors to see him through 🤗🤗🤗 let’s hope our actions live up to theirs

How good of you...

In fact, all my life people have exclaimed that I look so much like my father—which has always pleased me. But I'd never thought of seeing him "in the mirror," as you put it. Very nice...
