    I find the Hydroconquest to be a stunner of a watch. I really like the large numerals, except why don't they offer a no-date version? At least I haven't been able to find one. The small date really throws it off.

    Looks great but I know what you mean.

    It’s the numerals that keep me thinking about buying this Oris (don’t mean to hijack the thread)

    Agree that it’s a great piece and wears really well, but Lomgines love their dates.

    Partial to the green BE but there’s that date again...

    That Otis posted above has a more subtle date placement IMO. Very nice piece.
