Vintage depth gauge-

Recommended Posts

Okay guys this is a little project I went with as part of Neckyzips depth gauge over on HF. These are Aluminium and have a basis around the Panerai depth gauges. Some guys will go with the traditional PAM style but I decided to go my own way with this one. I had Joe make me the dial which I designed and is based on an original French gauge. These are front loading and easy to fully waterproof. He only made 30 of these and they're all custom design/engraved. I've controversially gone with 1 hand which Ross supplied and I've aged and lumed it. Popped a Swiss 6497 in and away she goes. (Just have to remember if it's day or night. The Lume is incredible and I'm loving it. Not everyone's cup of tea I know but thought I'd share.

That pic shows 4pm. Obviously it's give or take a few mins but hey who's counting. If I want accurate GMT I use my mobile. Lol
