i just browsed 'mens health' magazine,
April 08.
there was a story about the Navy Seal's.
as a military watch lover, i wondered if anyone knows what is that watch in the photo...

thanks  for helping.

The watch is known as the MTM PRO-OPS:

It comes in two versions one is known as the Silver Seal.
The other is in the image is the Black Seal.

thanks for the swift reply.
are you sure it's an MTM? or just because its issued to seal's?
the bezel looks more rounded than an MTM....
sorry for making it difficult on all of you.......

Hmmm, looks more like a Suunto to me. I'll admit that the picture is too low-res for me to tell (ran it through PS and couldn't improve it much) and I'm playing the odds a bit: a lot of SEALs wear Suunto watches and I've yet to see one wearing an MTM.

I was able to compare the watch bracelet in the photo.
It does resemble more of the Zenith Defy Extreme

Okay...I think we're just guessing here.  Need a much better picture at a much better angle to even begin to tell anything! :D

Yea my eyes can't tell with that small look and enlarging distorts to much. I'll see if i can locate a fresher image online.

just reviewed the photo again.
it's not  MTM or zenith,
haven't seen a suunto who fits the bill either.
the watch is plastic (or similar) with orange/yellow squares every 15min
on the bezel, not sure but i think i can see min & hour hands....
