                  On some of the new models Breitling has started using slanted numbers again. Not my cup of tea..

                    Anyone here has an Archimede watch that can share their views?

                    I'm considering the Pilot XLH.

                      I don't wear this one very often so when I had it on a couple days ago I decided I'd take a quick shot of it.
                      Jii, love the Breitling BTW.

                                Can't go wrong with Seiko. If you're into more classic divers watches the SKX007 is a benchmark as well. Click here for a good review with beautiful pics.

                                    Also worth considering is the Orient Mako (click here for a review)- for the money (less than $100), I don't think you can get a better automatic watch.  It is easily on par with watches 3 or 4 times more expensive.  It also has one of the best looking blue dials I've ever seen.

                                          I would trust that seller: good feedback, good pics, specialises in watches.

                                            his located in thailand, hope that does not mean anything…

                                            are there anything to look out for regarding the mechanics of the watch?
