Sticking with undersea operations, the Oris ProDiver collection is an interesting one, given that Oris is one of the few watch companies that remains actively engaged in dealings with commercial divers. More specifically, Roman Frischknecht is a commercial diver that has been an Oris ambassador for some time, and rather than simply being an ambassador in name, Roman has played a crucial role in the development of the ProDiver collection ahead of its launch in 2009.It was his insight that led to the creation of the brand’s bezel locking system, known as a Rotation Safety System. Given the level of safety and security protocols involved in his line of work, Roman knew that if he was to be using a conventional dive watch in a modern dive environment, there could be absolutely no room for error, thus a locking mechanism (as seen in other divers like the Omega Ploprof, among others) would be mandatory.Although the roots of the Yacht-Master II relate to activities on the water’s surface rather than deep below, its unique functionality is perfectly suited to this category. After all, the Rolex Yacht-Master II is what is often referred to as yachting timer – a countdown chronograph that can be used to properly measure the start time of a regatta, also known as a sailing race.Arguably the most complex watch in the present Rolex collection, the Yacht-Master II uses an interesting combination of bezel position, crown position, and pusher action in order to set its countdown duration between 1 and 10 minutes, with the chronograph capable of flyback (or fly-forward) functionality to the pre-set time with a single activation of its lower pusher. While many Yacht-Master II wearers are unlikely to ever use this highly specific function for its actual intended purpose. being able to run a countdown like this isn’t shy on practical daily-life applications… grilling timer, anyone?
When you got the watch on hand, you can feel its high quality texture, it is also a little heavy. My wirst is 16.5mm, I can wear a 38mm watch, the 47mm SevenFriday also suits me very well, so is this Omega. The crystal is very clear.The crown is easy for you to distinguish whether this Omega replica watch is made by a big factory or a small factory. The base face of the crown is brushed, while the Omega Logo above is polished, besides, the side face around the crown is polished, the whole craftmanship of the crown is in a high level. Although genuine watch is better, it is really hard for a factory to achieve such a high replicating grade.The hands of this Omega watch have several colors alternatives, the most usual are silver and blue, there are also unique black and yellow bumblebee color as well as green. The hand uses drawing finishing, so do those hour markers. The factory did not uses baked blue design on the hand, because this Omega Aqua Terra 150M was an old model published a long time ago, and the factory was not attempted to release the future upgraded version, so, if you are in pursuit of perfection, I suggest you choose silver hand model.The bracelet is very good, it gives a high quality texture feeling, the gap between links is tight, not too loose, the drawing finishing on the bracelet is very delicate. The Omega Logo on the clasp is deeply engraved, which gives a strong three-dimensional feeling. When you need to adjust the length of the bracelet, you have to lose the screws on each side, and then take the pin out.
