What does everyone think of a ProDiver
with a black dial and black hour, minute,
and second sweep hands?

The second sweep hand would look almost
like a white ball floating around the dial.

I'm not fan of that combination

Hello,

There are many present examples of just that type of combination; some Fortis Pilot watches and Revue Thommen chronographs are two right off the top of my head.

Carefully examine straight-on pictures of them, notice how the luminessence does NOT typically penetrate the minute chapter ring (the black tip of the hand does though, but that's "invisible"). The net effect is that very fast time recognition is not possible; at least for me.

Thanks for the feedback!

I'm a big fan of the ProDiver so I think
it will be my next purchase (other than
the Marine Original I have reserved).

When I visited Stowa in April Jorg let me
see the collection and I've been thinking
about them ever since.

I've seen a couple ProDivers out there
with silver hands. Can you still order
it with these hands or with hands from
the Regular Seatime.

Any thoughts?
