Which to take on Holiday

Post by Toffeeggs »

As you can see from the attached photos have been checking if the following three watches are suitable to take snorkelling round the coast of Cuba from the 14th July for a couple of weeks. Been testing in the bathroom sink. All seem ok. So I think all three will see some sunshine. Oops I see I haven't set the date on the camera for some time now.

Isn't that a bit like deliberately crashing your car gently to check the airbag would work in the event of the real thing? 😀
But seriously, if you can't dive / snorkel with those then what can you use!

Enjoy Cuba and would be interested to hear what you see while snorkeling.

Cheers,

Paul

Thinking the MK 11 or Deep Blue might give best visibility underwater with the contrasting hands. I'm hoping to get my certification somewhere in the Caribbean this coming winter, and will be using my ACAN. If it gets a ding, we will call it a battle scar and carry on. Can't wait. Hope you can post some pics. Do you have a camera for underwater?
Time and money? I’ve spent most of mine on booze and women. The rest I just wasted…
