Diver Prototype Photos - Work In Progress
Chris emailed me some photos of the divers in the design mode. He specifically mentioned that he is moving toward the ETA 6497 movement.

Only 3 ATM WR?
My first comment is that I am disappointed to see that it looks like Chris is shooting for 30m of water resistance. I was hoping/expecting 200-300 meters.
Actually, not the case
It says 30ATM on the drawings, he corrected it several times. That's 300m!
Interesting, can't wait to see the final product.

Re: Actually, not the case
You're right. I hadn't looked them over very well at the time I posted them. I am going on vacation soon, and wanted to get them up so everyone could see them, and wouldn't have to wait until I return.phubbard wrote:It says 30ATM on the drawings, he corrected it several times. That's 300m!

Some background on the 6497 caliber.
Linky.
Look what this guy did to his.
I wouldn't turn my nose up at this movement.

, by making it too large there will be a lot of people that pass this watch by just because its too big for them. I think that would be a shame. So i suggest not making it 43 but at max 42.
