This Kobold SS Soarway Diver Seal arrived recently. My first Kobold and I can't say enough good about it. It is everything I look for in a dive watch. Fit and finish are flawless. The finish is mostly brushed satin with a polished edge on the bezel and crown. Nice deep black dial that is very "clean" in design. This thing has a massive case, (45mm diam x 17mm thick), very heavy, but thats the way I like them. Flush fit HE valve at 10:00. I love the way the curvature of the crystal integrates with the bezel. Beautifully machined SS bracelet, it also came with a nice brown leather strap. This thing is going to get ALOT of wrist time. I will let the photos do the talking.       |

that watch looks like the perfect diver indeed .... constructed rock solid with fit and finish supurb .... has eye-ball ....I thought the lume would be outstanding though ? I think we are spoiled with Seiko putting out such great lume , but Stowa prodivers have great lume also as well as Doxa |

I wanted to ask Teddy, but I am afraid of him...face4.gif I have been reading some complaints about the lume. I would expect it to be exemplary considering the other attributes of the watch, but MOR isn't a deal breaker... if you can afford one of these beauts! Enjoy it to the fullest!! yourock.gif |

The Seal just Carry's a strong presence on the wrist. To me it's either a love it or leave it watch (flip it), but for a work watch I have decided of late I want lume, that's why I wanted a Monster for Fathers Day. The NauticFish 1000 Prof was the sorriest lume I have seen and owned. Listen you guys don't believe that "hunky dory" stuff Mark is tell-in you about being afraid of me, in the whole time I have been a member, I have never seen the Pax back down from anybody. the truth be told when he is bent on one, I'm just trying to get out of his way, so haaa Mark. |
