Me: "You sure about this?"

Doc: "Of course. That's why they call it Ultra Deep. I've seen treatments cheaper but none more effective."

ER isn’t white collar work. Some seriously rough and dirty moments.

I’d wear a Timex Ironman. Even better than a G-Shock for cleaning. The chronometer, countdown timer, and alarms could be useful. And no tears if destroyed by a combative or so covered in a hep C pos patient’s vomit that you just say “screw it” and replace.

You know, I've been looking into this piece and now I just have to try it on. I'm going to go to the Omega boutique across town and will report back.

I don't know how to embed Instagram posts but these were shared on another forum. The last one actually shares some insight. "What is BIOCERAMIC? It is a blend of two-thirds ceramic and one-third of a castor oil-based material. A sustainable material that’s perfect for a watch case. We only have one Mother Earth and we should all do our part to save it!"

Looks like a laser-ablated titanium rendering. Same technique as on the Aqua Terra Worldtimer. Interesting.

You’ve got the name for it. Now to uphold that reputation.

This Ultra Deep was undoubtedly about Omega beating Rolex specs. Surely they don't expect to sell many of them. File it along with their Alaska Project Speedmaster for the extreme temperature swings of space. Almost entirely bragging rights for the company and the very few who would buy it as niche enthusiasts. And if I do see one around town, that watch fan gets a high-five from me. Shine on, you crazy diamond.

I have mixed feelings.

On one hand, this is ridiculous. It's a dive watch capable of depths 18x deeper than any human has been with SCUBA gear. And if you did go swim with the Kraken, you wouldn't time it with a rotating bezel. The mission to test it took 12 hours.

On the other hand, this is awesome. Why? Because we can.

On either hand it looks cool but too big for me at 45.5mm diameter, 18.12mm height and 56mm lug-to-lug.
