Why We Love The Seiko Prospex.

When the dive watches arrived, our excitement grew when we saw the eye popping orange and black color combination of the bezel. This was going to look beautiful under the water against our black wetsuit! Not to mention when we are diving with the Garibaldi, the California State Marine fish, who is coincidentally the same color! How is that for fashion forward?

We really like dive gear. We especially have fun trying out gear that’s new to us. So when Seiko asked us to try out their Prospex Automatic Diver Watch, of course we said YES.

Super excited, we headed off to the La Jolla Ecological Reserve for some dives! This protected marine sanctuary is great for scuba diving and freediving and is a mecca for cute ocean critters. The perfect dive gear testing area!

When we arrived at the famous La Jolla Cove for our first dive, we each had our Seiko. Margo chose the black silicon band option which really made the watch face stand out. Stephanie went for the steel band which made the whole watch stand out and gave it a really cool tough dive girl look. We smiled at each other as we headed down the stairs to the water as other divers pointed at these very unique creations on our wrists. Test dives with these watches were going to be a lot of fun!!!
