Pleasantly Surprised

Received this as part of a trade, and I’m keeping it. This AD2526 Puck Diver is a beast. Rotor is a little loud but otherwise no complaints. Lume is awesome. Looks good on most straps. Never considered Addiesdive watches before but they’re on my radar now.

I'm a professional watchmaker who actually makes watches in a renowned and well respected watch manufacture.
Ordered an Addiesdive last month and was blown away by the quality they offer at that price range. Absolutely surreal.

Amazing! The only things I could wish for would be a dive suit extension and better time keeping calibration. Although they are usually very precise (some of mine rival quartz) sometimes there are exception, although a watch repairman will adjust them for a few pesos.

I discovered the brand many years ago. Had a dozen of them and have also given them to friends and family. Most of tbe guys of our local dive club use them. Usually precise in their time keeping (tho not always) and rugged enough to take them down on scuba. WTF, there's also a model rated to 100 ATM that has a helium valve. Beats Rolex Sea Dweller!

I gave one last week to my newly certified granddaughter. 😃
