 FedEx delivered my new Doxa SUB 5000T Seaconqueror Sharkhunter yesterday morning. 3 day delivery from Switzerland to my door! Sized it last night and it fits like a glove. I haven't had a chance to shoot any decent pics yet so here is one from Doxa.



All I can say is this watch is impressive! Fit and finish are remarkable. The second hand sweeps like butter. The deep flat black dial is absolutely gorgeous with the faceted hour markers. The lume is also amazing. If you are a lume kind of guy, this watch has plenty of it, we're talking Monster lume! Beautiful AR coating on sapphire crystal. Nice heavy screwed link bracelet is very comfortable. The new ratcheting dive clasp is an absolute machined work of art.

This watch comes to as close to perfect in my tastes as I've seen. A true high-end dive watch with modern design but still retains the vintage characteristics that Doxa is known for.

With my hectic schedule here before the Holiday, and being out of town, I won't be able to shoot some really nice shots until next week. Check back the end of next week and I will have lots of new pics.
