Dive Watch Topic Discussion - Colors
Mon, 26 November 2012 00:22
It used to be that you could have your dive watch in any color combination you wanted, as long as it was a black dial with white hands (or greenish/yellow hands as determined by the luminous treatment). These days, you can get divers in all color combinations and even colored lume.
While white on black still provides the best contrast in about any depth of water, most of us don't live underwater and we buy our watches for more than just ultimate contrast at depth. So what color combinations of dial, hands, bezel, lume etc. do you prefer? Bonus points for illustrative images.
