Luminox Supports 30-Mile Dive To Highlight Endangered Sharks; Launches Limited Edition Watches
On September 17, undersea explorer and combat diver Scott Cassell completed a 30-mile dive from Catalina Island to San Pedro, California. Scott’s goals: to call attention to endangered shark species that are approaching the edge of extinction, and to set a world distance record for the longest uninterrupted dive. Find specs and prices for the new watches inside. The dive took place in the Catalina Channel where Cassell has been diving for years. According to Cassell, less than 20 years ago this area would have produced between 40 and 100 shark sightings in a single dive. On Saturday however, he encountered literally no sharks during his 11 hours underwater, despite using shark attractors during the entire dive. That result confirmed the tremendous decrease in the local shark population. Cassell was forced to give up his world record dreams when an equipment malfunction caused him to black out underwater, forcing him to the surface at the 5 hour mark. Though the record was lost,

an oldie seamaster
picked up this oldie (but a goodie) seamaster today; love the seconds sub-dial (1951 - keeps great time for a 60 year old watch!)

Some Omega Speedmaster X-33 action shots.....
I must admit, this watch is still growing on me.I am sure some day a nice 2nd generation X-33 will join my modest ''bunch''... ;)

Is it safe?
Thought I'd test out the 5167 and see how it is with water, as there have been a few is it safe threads for Subs but not as many for Pateks It is called the aquanaut after all So what do you think, is it safe?

Recent discontinued models (help)
Hi guys,I have recently fallen in love with Panerai but am yet to own one.I am looking at purchasing either a 000, 112 or 111. It seems that as these models are discontinued and that they are going for quite a bit used.An example of this is a 2010 000 on watchfinder for ?3150 or a 2006 111 for ?4000.Am I right in saying these are expensive? If so what would you advise in terms of obtaining one of these models? Thanks
