    Invisible diver watch my foot! It's right there in the photos! What do you take us for, complete suckers? Moderators, please remove this fraudulent listing.

    This is what the watch should look like (seen against a backdrop of lovely willow oak branches).

    That is a cool cool watch though, GLWS! Might you have a pair of calipers to verify the diameter?

    I think my word should be enough. :confused:

    It's 38mm, more precisely.

    But how do we know that it's not 38.1mm? I have very strict tolerances. :whipped:

    GLWTS! :thumbsup:

    I think I understand, yeah. 37-38mm was not the best. 38mm would have been more resolute! I had taken the measurement a few days prior and didn't have my tape measure with me when posting. :)

    Was it calibrated so we know for sure? Could be 37.9mm :rolleyes:
