It's a tripple bacon&cheese on the wrist! 3000 Euros less in your pocket and a wrist 265g heavier. ONLY for big bad guys who hunt giant squids with a harpoon.....Like me I considered adding the 20,000 Footer to my collection, but at 28+mm thick I can't imagine it is even wearable...it is only 2/3 the weight of the 12,000 Footer because it is Titanium. The OP was looking for the heaviest and thickest diver, the 12K is still heavier, the 20K is thicker, but IMO probably too thick.

Lets wait that the Megalodon surface from the abyssyourock.gif

I was fitting the Buran Manta Ray today at the store. It is BIG, heavy and serious-lookin'. But it can't come close to the Charmex. I learned something new from 3T again today. I think the Charmex can also be used as a chopping board ![]() I wouldn't mind having one of those brutes.

Thrue! Ideal when you chop the head of a 500lbs halibut ![]() I prepared my reel and rod for this weekend: But I will go with my revisited Tissot...Let's hope that the sapphire hold under the knife! ![]()

I've gotten snobbish about the weight. My Sea Devil has spoiled me towards other smaller watches. I love the heft.

The biggest heaviest watch I own is my new Invicta Reserve Specialty Subaqua. This guy has a 52mm X 20mm case and with all it's links weighs in at right about a pound. Being a Subaqua it is water resistant to 500m. (1650 ft.). I know some of you guys aren't Invicta fans but, this is quite some watch. ![]()

Sissies! This Nixon is 51mm ... not sure about the weight, but I can assure you ... mine feels like a boat anchor. I take a lb less dive weight when wearing this baby ... :P http://www.nixonnow.com/watches/mens/the-51-30-A057_001.html
