Helson Shark Diver Watches

[HauteHippie]

Its ALOT less flashy Chief - mainly all brushed surfaces with matt black dial etc.....But if youre looking for a cool tool watch then this is the way to go......

HOWEVER, before you plunge for a Helson, check out Zenton watches........VERY similar design but I personally like them better......

Hmmm, from what I can see on zentonwatch.com they look very interesting indeed. I don't see anything for sale yet, though. Have you?

re: Zenton...looks like you have to email them for info and availability...

SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY PRICE ONLY $888 (plus shipping/handling)

[HauteHippie]

Ah... Did they send you pics and specs, hackR?

No, sorry Chief, havnt had any contact with Zenton.........They come on a bracelet which is pretty cool, I asked Peter to design a bracelet for the Helson too.....I think he might be working on a 3-link

OK I really dig the Zentons. Michael sent a list of custom hand and dial configurations, and this one has spoken to me:

Here's more info from Michael:

You can custom configure to your liking:

You get a leather strap, a black rubber strap, and the bracelet in a nice box -

Some of the options in the flesh:

All very nice watches. Was anybody going to comment on the photo of in the first page with the chick/dude with the rack and the shark? Or is it like the 800LB Gorilla in the room; you know its there, but if you ignore it maybe it will go away.

I think there are two 800LB gorillas on his/her chest.

I love the look of the Helson. Only issue for me is @ 45mm x 18mm high that thing is going to stand off and be a bit top heavy. I fear, minimum wrist size to get away with this is 7.25 and larger.

The Zenton reminds me of many of the Seiko "Mods" available.

Good stuff either way.

For Chief! I still prefer the Zenton though.......

Awesome, I'm seriously into blue and white at the moment

I keep going back and forth between the Helson and the Zenton. Now I don't like the Zenton that I thought I did!! Back on Helson...

I like the Helson quite a bit. Might be getting a Marathon SAR first though.
