Girard-Perregaux and Divers
GP does have a tradition of producing waterproof watches and even Divers. Most famously are the vintage Deep Divers, of which I now own 5 across 4 generations.
The modern Divers are again the Sea Hawk line and there is one watch I consider the ultimate Diver watch, which is the Sea Hawk II Pro 3000m. Wow, 3000m, what an achievement.

Of course there are the Sea Hawk Pro with Flying Toubillon, but who wants a “Diver” watch like this in precious metal?
So is the Sea Hawk II Pro 3000m on my wishlist? Well, I do like the look of the watch, but need to admit that it is too big for me, so not a consideration.
For the wristscan, let me focus on one vintage Deep Diver. Simply because it is my latest addition. 35mm case, rotating bezel from 1962, I believe also rated 100 fathoms (600ft) as the 1st Generation Deep Diver.
HAGWE,

Love divers - Can't decide ...
Team, Those are my four divers. My intention was to take pictures of all and then choose one. Can't do. It will be unfair. Here we have my undecided pictures: 1) Omega Seamaster Master 300m 2) IWC Aquatimer Vintage Collection 3) Tudor Pelagos 4) JLC Maste...
I was wondering when an IWC would make it into this week's submissions
Thanks for getting one in between all these other divers MIke
Any of these makes a great splash Nilo.
Hope you are feeling better. -- Best! -- Richard.
I love that BLUE!
Ignorant of Rolexes as I am, I've never seen a blue Submariner Thanks Cazalea
Plastic Fantastic
Hi All My one and only Divers watch - more of a diver a like. Has the look but I doubt it'd deal with the depth. plastic diver As for what I'd like - an Aquanaut as a lot of appeal, though as how to get my grubby little kits on one, thats a whole differen...
Ok, modest but I am still happy with these (no wristscan though)
.........some classics, some more exotic ones, particularly happy with the Polaris, the Longines Diver (no, not the "Legend Diver", this IS the legend Diver), the two IWC Bund AMAGs, the Blancpain Bund, but in the end, they are all great, IWC's Aquatimers...
What a feast, HSTE! I am looking forward to seeing more pics of your gorgeous Polaris and
No Rad in the dedicated foras! Bravo. Nicolas
