Hydroconquest today, decided to put it on a bond and I'm really liking it.



Apologies for the wonky bezel...

Very tidy indeed. 41mm?

I’ve worn nothing else since I got my 39mm HydroConquest last month. I am absolutely delighted with it.

Straps, the rubber one piece NATO by Zuludiver (model 298) is substantial and smells like vanilla. Can highly recommend! Bought from Watchgecko.

RIP Lorne. Wherever you are now, in eternal rest, know that there are others who still rely on you for the time.

You've left me with a dilema, my nephews both wanted me to leave them this watch. If anyone every has one up for sale please PM me as having two watches to leave to them may be the only way to stop an argument.

You'll notice this is a bit "batterred". It is my daily. I had a couple of Rolex and sold them as I stopped wearing them after getting the Field Engineer, should have bought ten more at that point!.

It has been down the bottom of the North Sea. High on the Eiger. Inside the Radiological Zone of two nuclear power stations. Down a mine in North Yorks. Not as "clean" as Pupps watch but for a daily, and still keeping time to 2s in a week.

I'm sure that Lorne will be looking down nodding his head in approval.

I think that'll be quite the classic one day.
I agree. I read that there is talk that it could be discontinued this year and currently its doing well value wise. I love mine. I really like the design with the addition of the colours of the green Rolex wording and the gold crown.
