My son snagged my Planet Oceanaut and has been wearing it 24/7 without a hitch and likes it big time!....and he is hard on watches mistake.gif I think this PVD at 45mm is pretty cool...I got the blue one since I have the same yellow dial in the 40mm SeaPro yourock.gif Check out the Arctic Diver and the World Timer diver by SeaPro...they are very cool too hand6.gif

I did and your are right. Is 45mm the correct measurement? I questioned that since the others are 43mm..which to me is the perfect case size. either way a winnerhand6.gif

I'll have to ask but I believe it is 45mmhand6.gif I agree about 43mm watches!....they seem to have taken over for the 40mm size as far as being the norm watch2.gif

I bought the SeaPro Wingman and I'm very impressed with the quality, the bracelet is awesome...one of the few times I can honestly say I was more impressed with a watch after I received it.

so guys.......for a watch dope like me I'm getting the impression you fellas think this is a pretty good watch company?. I was going to pick up a seiko skx173 ( which I see they sell as well ) and thought I would drift on by here before pulling the trigger. I agree that those are some handsome watches. It will be my knock around watch and I can't say I'm too fussy about accuracy but would like a watch that will hold up for awhile.........a worthy competitior to the seiko diver would you say?

thanks

I'm not sure I would go as far to say that one is better than the other, I can reiterate on my earlier post and say that I was extremely happy with the Wingman and just received the SeaPro BX Diver, equally happy. 

The thing that impresses me most is the quality of the bracelets.  I do not own any current Invicta but do own a couple from 3 or 4 years ago.  I can definetly say the quality of the bracelets on the SeaPros is far better then the "vintage" Invictas, can't personally say how they compare to the current models.

My SeaPro PVD arrived yesterday and it is exactly what Danny Blair(WC) claims it to be "an entry level Oceanaut" and by my experience I would say the only differences are the Miyota vs ETA and no saph crystal hand6.gif The crown on the SeaPro even uses the o-ring washer and thicker crown tube with a nice thick divers extension and dual deployant divers clasp... it is above in quality of any watch I have purchased in the same price category this year ;)

As someone stated in an earlier post, the fonts used on the dials are even the same.

A sapphire upgrade on that would only run about $30-40 bucks likely... so when that mineral gets scratched... just find a sapphire to replace it with.

Nice looking piece.
