Nice finds. I have always been impressed with the amount of watch for the money from Victorinox.

I'm really diggin' the three hand Victorinox!

dig the Victorinox on the left. good quality watches

I'm glad you guys are liking these ! Definitely agree with you
about Victorinox Doc, Alan, and Ron ! Their designs, along with
their quality is pretty outstanding for the prices. Also liking that
three hand there as well ! It's got the dive look down perfectly
imho, with a classic yet modern feel. The second version with the
rubber strap that looks like a black IP bracelet is interesting too.
Reminds me of a Tag Heuer out there, that I think may have a
similar themed silicone, or rubber strap also !

Seems I'm the only one in favor of the G Shock! haha! The linked writeup was very good...and for $360usd, tis a bargain IMO....
Mind you, my incoming Omega S-33 is rated for 35Gs!!!

I think the G-SHOCK is outstanding as well Thian ! The ALL metal theme, as well as the analog
twist is off the charts. The black together with the blue is just THE best imho too !!! It's some kind
of watch, THAT is for sure sir ! As is your Omega S-33 !!!

That is an interesting color scheme on the G, really pops .

Well, just got word that the Omega bezel remover arrived from Bienne to Ontario watchmaker. So, he can soon install the new bezel! Then tis only a matter of shipping the whole kit (box, papers etc.) Hooray!
For some reason, the aviator group buy all had the Gen1 crowns on the Gen2 watches! Bienne, servicing the watch twice for the original owner, did not see fit to change the crown, so my friend had our watchmaker order and install the correct one!
