| Incredible guys ! Yowza !  A couple of questions... Gary, what exactly is a compressor case? Always have wondered about that actually. Bill, is that Ploprof as fun to wear as it looks like sir? Really is something to see. Darius, this Croton looks so comfortable with the bracelet/case. Is it by chance? ____________________________________  | |

Gary, what exactly is a compressor case? Always have wondered about that actually.
Bill, is that Ploprof as fun to wear as it looks like sir? Really is something to see.
Darius, this Croton looks so comfortable with the bracelet/case. Is it by chance? Good afternoon Tom, This Croton is unbelievably comfortable. It is has a little weight to it but feels like it isn't there when on the wrist. ____________________________________ | |

Good afternoon Tom,
This Croton is unbelievably comfortable. It is has a little weight to it but feels like it isn't there when on the wrist. Hi Darius, Knew this one had to fit nice !  Looks like a glove for the wrist really. Fantastic ! ____________________________________ | |

Beyond cool Bill ! So much fun seeing that one.  Would imagine the weight is a plus with it. I mean I guess they could make a titanium version, but the heavy steel matches the personality of the watch. ____________________________________ | |

| Tom - Basically a compressor case uses the water pressure to make a tighter seal, the deeper you go the more water resistant it becomes....until you exceed the rating of the watch. ____________________________________ Later, GaryRemember we are the caretakers of mechanical art.....

Gary, thanks so much ! Really did not know this. Actually thought it just had something to do with some of the case styles of dive watches years ago, and the dual crowns many had. Thanks a lot ! ____________________________________ | |
