What do you guys think of Squale?

These are pics from OT...

I GUESS Squale is re-entering the watch market place?

What is your take on these watches?

i like this one much better, 750 bones list and you need to call princeton watches for the sales price, so low they cant print it in the ad! also 44mm!!

Meh...

I like that one too Trev...

..except for the high polished bezel.

Do you know if it comes brushed?

Brother, tape up the crystal with some masking tape, then tape a thumb tack on the center of the crystal and poke it through a piece of scotch-brite pad and just start turning the watch or scotch-brite pad in a clockwise direction! You will end up with a perfectly brushed bezel that looks like it came out of the factory!!!







End result on what was a polished bezel..



reaaly would like to know how cheap they are blowing the tiger out??

I can see that on a smooth bezel...

...how do you think it would work out on a numbered bezel?

Tiger also looks sick on a mesh bracelet....... just sayin'

Ive done it to these bad boys when you get some bezel rash!!







And of coarse the old polished Doxa bezel had to go.....

Before



After

GREAT work Trev!

it's really easy Alan and if you can score a tiger for say 500 bones you wont have a bunch into it! brush that bezel, throw it on some mesh and you will have one of a kind...... until i get one!!! You know we got to keep both coast in sweet watches!

That's right my Breitling Brutha!

I like these watches Alan ! The new Professional 101 ATM's kind of harken
back to those great vintage dive watch styles from the past. The length of the
case, as well as the attractive dials, and different bezel combinations bring both
the past and present together VERY nicely imho. It's also really interesting just
because they seem to have had an excellent history of making cool dive watches.
Hopefully these watches here are just the beginning of more great Squale watches
to come ! ..By the way, I like the Tiger 300 that Trevor is showing too !!! That
bezel is INCREDIBLE, and the overall look of the watch, along with ingenius button
for the bezel is just TOO GOOD as well. It honestly looks AWESOME, but also looks
as if the quality rivals other higher end dive watches out there. The polished bezel
looks EXTRA wide, and unique too imho, and Trevor's Scotch-Brite trick can always
take it up a notch also if you wanted Alan ! ..Thanks for these pictures of the new
Squale here Alan, and thanks for showing us all of those watches and brushed bezels
Trev !

They are pretty nice....just not on the shopping list.....

Pretty nice! Not a fan of hooded lugs though, but looks nice. I like the black/black version the best...now if it cam in DLC, I would be all over that!!!!!!!!!!

I like the first model better, and prefer the all black bezel. Not a fan of bezel locks, the red button looks like a cheap reset button to me.

FWIW

John (conjurer) over at BDWF picked up that exact model and sent it back within two days I believe. John is honest and straight forward about his watch reviews and did not have a lot of good things to say about the watch. He said enough for me to stay away from them at the price point they are at.
