Beautiful Objects - Stowa Prodiver 1000m
August 14, 2009
I love dive watches! They are rugged and elegant and ooze with machismo. The biggest issue I have with diver’s watches is that some can be grotesquely over the top. The Stowa Prodiver, for me, is the epitome of class and rugged elegance in a diver with out crossing the line from handsomely strong to hideous brute. What I love the most about this watch, besides it being a gift from my wife, are the clean lines and minimalist face with just a splash of orange. While it is only a 42mm face this watch has quite a bit of heft and wears “big” so it is not for the feint of heart.
When I look at this watch it really reminds me of a gauge or caliper or some other sort of drafting or measuring tool, because of the line of work I am in this really speaks to me and this watch really captures what my style is all about.
Last but not least Stowa http://www.stowa.com is a great little company that does limited runs of their watches and has ridiculous quality control and customer services. When you send them an e-mail you will usually be getting a response back from Jörg Schauer himself or possibly Regina. It does not getting any better than that!
