Diving Watches.

I've had the same thoughts myself, Willy. I am sure most of it is down to fashion and the "hockey puck on a strap" trend that still lingers. Now, I have nothing against big watches. I love my PAM312 and B&M 8319. Both of them are (supposedly) dive watches with 300/1000M WR but I doubt many use them for that purpose :-) My diving is certainly limited to the bathroom sink....
After ten years or so wanting a Longines Leged Diver, I finally got one back in november and it is so light and comfortable with a 300M WR rating.
It's probably not as tough as many other dive watches with thicker cases, but it doesn't really matter. If I find myself that far below the surface, I'm pretty sure I won't care much about my watch!
