    Some similarities to my Riedenschild Dark Sea Diver.

    NOTE: I changed the hands on this to the plonguer style ones.

    Good looking watch...

    Having an inner rotating bezel makes the watch LOOK even bigger...

    DRAWBACK: Black Case, if it's not DLC, I'm not getting one!

    I like 'em.
    Things i'd change:

    A.- 7 lines of text on the dial??? NOPE (USE THA CASEBACK)
    B.- Plongeur hands??? SO COMMON NOW, THAT THEY SUCK

    nice looking watch, inner bezels are not my favorite feature. It's kept me from buying the Victorinox mach4...and the price

    Another GREAT looking watch Mark ! ..
    I always seem to like what Schaumburg comes out
    with. This kind of has that IWC Aquatimer theme
    which is happening, with the 12 to 3 o'clock area.
    Have to admit, that is easy on the eyes ! So is the
    inner rotating bezel, not to mention the entire dial,
    with it's deep look, neat hands, and markers. Hard
    to decide which looks best..the black with rubber
    strap, or the stainless steel version. Guess, I will
    have to just like the both of them !

    I also like your Riedenschild there as well Hobbit !

    Thank you for showing this watch along with those
    links Mark !

    I guess when it comes right down to it, there are quite a
    few companies that use the same or similar cases ! ..
    It evidently depends on what a watch company does with
    that case inside, and out, that make it different. It's really
    pretty interesting, but at the same time it would also be
    nice to see more new or original cases too !

    the O7 is close, but the Schaumburg is different enough to stand on its own -- IMO, of course.

    Looks like the Invicta Sea Vulture.

    That I even know what the watch looks like makes me a friggin' goober.

    I like the look of the AQM 3. The cases are similar but the crown positioning and lug shape/sizes are different. The O7 has 24mm lugs, the AQM has 22. I believe the AQM is new so if any inspiration was borrowed it was by L&B.

    That's why I posted it but there are many divers with inner bezel that look like this but the O7 has been around much longer than the new AQIII! With all the brands borrowing from L&B I guess they get I pass on this one;-)
