For me, dive watches can do anything, go anywhere, and survive pretty much any outdoor activity. I'm not at all a diver, but I am a passable link snowboarder (like C- or D+ grade passable) so I figured I'd give the Ultra-Chron a go in the snow. Long story short, the watch survived without any issue which I suspect any decent dive watch should, but long story less short, I think we should talk about why more people should take the Ultra-Chron more seriously.

First of all, there is link absolutely no denying that one of the first things you are link apt to think of when you look at the Black Bay Pro is in fact the Explorer II. Moreover, you don't just think of the Explorer II in link general as the resemblance is not a generic one – you think of the very first Explorer II, the reference 1655.
