'The Deep - In One Breath' - Jana Strain, Canadian Freediver...........and a Submariner

[Mapman57]

So whilst I was away on a short vacation last week, I picked up a copy of the 'Omega Lifetime' magazine at the local AD (sorry guys, I know this is the Rolex forum!).

Whilst reading it by the pool I was inspired to shoot a few pics with my Blackberry Curve.................you will soon get a glimpse of why - best to remain seated at this point!

Now if you are NOT into watches - this is a glimpse of 'Jana' and just a few of her diving attributes........

My watch just could not stand the heat and the pressure.........

Stunning watch!

I always say dive watches are best with big rounded, ummmmmm, domes.

[archierocks]

i love big domes

[Mapman57]

I purposefully refrained from showing the 'super domes' in question - as I did NOT wish to detract from this very fine timepiece, as that is why you are all here!

.....it is isn't it?

[Mapman57]

Do you think the date font is centred enough............................

Speaking purely as the purest of purists, though not Puritan, I think I can speak for everyone when I say that a close inspection of these "domes" you mention is needed, perhaps even required, to ascertain the true beauty of this piece.

Canada is on a roll lately...a hot freediver and a transgender Miss Universe contestant!

[Nanuq]

How come I didn't see anything like this when I was free diving in Hawaii?

Damn, that's a nice piece of artwork Canvas isn't too shabby either

[Mapman57]

I see you guys have been busy looking for more - some of the 'wet' shots are great!

S - that is a fine piece of investigative journalism ! Those Planet Ocean's do look good , don't they?

Personally I only have eyes for Nanuq's 9401.....................

So I looked up this Free Diving thing ... a human can hold his breath for eleven and a half minutes underwater?

This "mammalian diving reflex" thing is new to me, and very interesting.

Amazing to think that SHE only comes up for breath every 11.5 minutes.............................

Seriously, yes it is an amazing human feat!
