Sort of Blue
This watch is so hard to beat as a package. Comfortable, unique aesthetic, and well made - especially now that pricing is reasonable again. Can see myself picking up one of their divers further down the road for sure 😜
I am also very tempted by their diving watches
These can be had now for appealing prices.
DB is extremely expensive
for a watch with no hand-finishing. Most DB are too big and those lugs turn me off. There are hundreds of other watches to buy I would spend my money elsewhere.
Consistent with me
Being a noob narration which you have put across in multiple forums.
They could easily be machine-finished
given the extremely large surface areas. As your BFF said, I only believe in interior angles. I will pay top dollar for interior angles.
The area where the lug arms meet the ogival lug tips requires hand shaping and finishing. The CNC gets close, hand filing and shaping is required to get a sharp transition and crease going from the flat lug arms to the rounded bullet tips.
Can all be done by CNC
The entire lug plus finishing is all machined. The whole watch is CNC.
DB produces 350 watches annually. Three hundred and fifty watches per year. For the record, I own CNC watches like Rolex, but the price should reflect accordingly. Frankly, it's totally fine for us to buy different watches. I have a long queue ahead of those watches I adore.

Do it! Wearing my diver for Thanksgiving dish washing 🤣
Narrow rounded bezel handles scratches well and DB ti deployant plus rubber strap is convenient, and so confiding you can forget your wearing it! As pricing for fresh out of school indies keeps going up DB value looks better and better. I'm tempted to buy another before FHB buys DB and fires the hype cannon
Still stresses me out that you wear yours to the gym
This one you have and the new swordfish are so cool to me. There was on in Singapore I missed out on at a great price a few mo ago. Oh well
Totally. After wearing the black ceramic Bathyscaphe I kinda want a black DB28. It would be silly to have 2 of the same watch in different colors but the swordfish or the previous JPS edition 😍
Super awesome watch!
I don't think I could pull this one off, but the design is brilliant. The recent burgundy starry various is among my favourites.
Does yours come with the flexible lugs?
