All together, the Pontos S Diver is simple to acquire in conjunction with everyday, but will present several troublesome areas for picky buyers
It’s got great lume, high legibility and a knockout case replica breitling Navitimer; coupled with the classic good looks, there is enough here to accept a few compromises.
ON THE WRIST
The Pontos S Diver is 43mm in diameter, but wears closer to a 40mm thanks to its internally set bezel and the well thought out proportions of the case. The lug thickness is spot on and provides a confident visual base for the rest of the watch on the wrist. The crown to adjust the bezel is prominently placed at 2 o’clock and helps to shrink the perceived diameter of the watch.
The bezel is easily manipulated through the extra crown, which features a rubber trim to combat day to day wear and tear. The bezel itself displays the only arabic numerals (other than the date window), marking every ten paces of the second and minute hand. Paired with the minute demarcations between the replica cartier Calibre hour indexes and it’s easy to get the impression that this is a watch intended for short timing intervals. Useful stuff for a dive, slightly less so for the 9 to 5 grind.
The watch is offered on either a leather NATO strap or a stainless steel bracelet. Looks wise, the leather fits the personality and has obviously been made with the Pontos S Diver in mind replica cartier tank. It is of fantastic quality and feels great on the wrist until moisture enters the game. Just don’t run your local 5k with this thing strapped on tight.
