Lets face it we all like a watch that looks good on our wrists otherwise we would all be wearing G-Shocks for example.But no doubt some brands make divers that are finished to a degree that is over the top to say the least.But most of them are made strong enough to take hard use.In the old days we got a Rolex because it was a hell of a strong watch and G-shocks did not exist.Today we mostly buy the Rolex because of how it looks and the prestige it gives.It is still a strong watch but in this world it also has to look perfect.We bloggers have a completly different way of looking at watches compaired to normal watch buyers.A lot of people talk about Beaters ie. watches that are used for hard daily use and usually cheap to buy.A tool watch for me is a watch that has a design that is based on what the watch is made to do.Nearly all watches i see in my opinion have design flaws.The perfect diver is like the perfect car it has not been built yet.One watch stands out for me as coming close to being the perfect diver and that is the IWC Ocean Porsche design 2000.It is so simple but it has its faults that could be improved today with the materials we have at our disposal.It has no sharp edges,it is reliable and it was designed to do a specific task.Today we could give it a better lume 7 day power reserve etc etc.But most people would say the Rolex sub looks better,you cannot win
