I’ve never been more than forty feet. I was only ever a hobby diver. Much of the time I wore a Casio F91w that isn’t dive rated at all. I still have that watch
why? That’s 900 meters deeper than the point at which the diver would be crushed.
PADI certification
The maximum depth for a PADI Scuba Diver is 40 feet (12 meters), and the maximum depth for a PADI Open Water Diver is 60 feet (18 meters). An Advanced Open Water Diver can dive up to 100 feet (30 meters). A PADI Deep Diver can dive up to 130 feet (40 meters).
It is always good to hear from long time members who haven’t been around for a while. I’m truly happy to learn you are still around and enjoying your watches
AFAIK all Noobmariners had a Miyota clone movement. It isn't at all difficult to get a movement from Cousins, Ebay or Aliexpress. Fitting it is straightforward for anyone that has some little knowledge. Some watchmakers will not work on reps. There is Adrian, but I don't know how busy he is and currently can't remember his username
@kernow a little help
