Zixen Vintage Diver
Hi Everyone,
I'm looking to purchase a new Diver Watch and stumbled on this great "vintage" looking brand called Zixen. The watch is Swiss Made with ETA 6497 and looks amazing but honestly I don't know anything about this brand. I greatly appreciate any feedback or recommendations for a good diver diver in the $1000s range. http://www.zixenwatch.com/trimixmechanik1000m.php Thanks |

I know nothing about them but that really does look great. Let us know if you pick one up.

Nice looking diver. Might want to as over at Watch U Seek. They would have more experience with this and many more micro brands.

I have looked into this brand as it was featured in some diving publication... Honestly, I would pass. Especially if you do not know what "trimix" means :-)

They made some excellent pieces. Quite a few fans over at WUS and TheDiveWatchConnection. Don't quote me but they may have had a name change or acquisition in recent times...I recall being able to go to their web-site and selecting dial and bezel options for each of their models...were reasonably priced too and excellent build quality.
