yes and no
There was a poster on here that used to use his Submariner (and no dive computer) when diving. Which I think is cool.
But as soon as you get into any tech diving, I am not so sure...
In general, though, my experience is that the primary timer is a dive computer and a watch is back up (on right wrist). I know guys who use mechanical dive watches for this purpose. But mainly quartz stuff like Aqualands which have backup depth guages. I have taken mechanical watches diving, but mainly strapped to my BCD in order to prove that a 30 year old watch can still cope. My back up is a G-shock.
why does a lot of people don't like the PRO GEO DIVER ???
well, I like it ....., but a little survey on an other site pointed out that a lot of them didn't like it, so convince me now serious, the question was a bit tricky as I wanted to sell my EWC golden "Rossi" for it and that just stirred up things i guess !...
Maybe – even being a technological marvel – because it’s excessively big…
…and kind of uncomfortable for daily life, assuming you do not dive for a living
For vacationing divers who travel....
I think it an AMAZING watch! However, for me the new Navy SEALS Diving GMT Chrono would be more my speed. -Dean
simple: wrong combination
I think that there is a crowd out there who likes the diving pro geo, so I can only speak of the reasons that make "me" not like it: ergonomy with the pressure sensor is not comfortable. the geographic function is not a the dial is hard to read with the s...
Based on your well-reasoned comments, I would like to ask...
…if mechanical divers are used in real life by scuba divers, or if they always prefer the digital ones. Marcelo

wht d we really need under water ...
diver watches as primary tools for diving are as much part of the past than vintage fins or vintage regulators made popular by the cousteau team ( mistral regulators with 1 big hose on each side). recreational divers that do a bit more dives than a couple...
Dive watches for diving
There is a class of diving watches (out there) that have novel accoutrements and the Blancpain people have just released the X fathoms. I thing that it is a reasonable assumption that these 'divers' are not intended for real(pragmatic) use in today's divi...
Well, I don't know everybody else but I REALLY LIKE IT!!!
In fact, it could be my ONLY, all terrain, lifetime tool watch!!! If... I could afford one I loved it since the first time I saw it at the Salón Internacional de la Alta Relojería México (High Horlogerie International Saloon Mexico) 5 or 4 years ago, I ca...
Thanks, Hermano
I have a crush on this one Sorry for resurrecting this post, but I couldn't avoid stating how much I like it. What about the 7924 Nico? Any more pics? You know I crave for it, he he... Won't let you go until you post more, eh? Un abrazo hasta la gélida Pa...
The edge of a metal 'rectangle' coming out at 9 o clock
is my first guess. Also, the business of the dial. The colors are not ordinary, white or black etc. This is a very specific design for hardcore JLC guys, IMHO.
