    Curse of the Purple Diver...

    I've been wearing my Vostok Blue Diver Amphibia a lot in recent days, and it has faded to a true purple color. I know this paranormal phenomenon is old news to the forum members here.

    I don't know why Vostok can't fix this problem.

    Funny - I just this morning finally ordered a blue Scuba Dude! Does this happen naturally to all of them, or is it a result of too much sun?

    It only took about a week and a half (of which I was not outside for long) for it to turn purple.
