VJB. that is a great shot, thank you! I love seeing these watches used as they were meant to, and as tool watches. Not that I do, except for a very rare dunk in the pool... just good to see it in action.

Here - don't get scared. My Sd was either protecting me or attracting the great white

Last time i got dumped in 60 feet of water off Key largo, the boat captain suggested I should put something over my Sd band, as it is too shiny and attracts baracuda.
Rather than cover the bracelt, I simply took off my dog tags which were flashing in the sunlight, kept the SD as it was suposed to be fearless and waterproof. |

Parachrom, I have heard the same about gold chains. It was brought to my attention during a dive. There was a Barracuda near by and I headed to the instructions..

I have heard that about barracuda's for 20+ years but I have never seen anyone or spoken with anyone who has had a barracuda have a go at anything shiny. There are plenty of shiny things on scuba equipment. The coast of NC has the largest barracudas I've ever seen and they love to hover around you while you decompress on the anchor line but they just seem curious. They have a lot of teeth and look kind of wicked but seem pretty harmless from my experience.

I have heard this but do not believe it at all ......

From 1960 unitl now the number of attacks on humans number under a dozen or so which is so insignificant considering the number of people in the water it is not worth counting. prior to 1963 only 19 confirmed attacks were documented. None were even close to fatal with the worst I read about causing 35 stitches. Here is a picture of one that I took numerous flash pictures of and he did not care one bit. I even got the feeling that he was posing for me. ![]() |
