You know what’s really hot in the world of watches right now? Super compressor (or at least super compressor style) watches.Super compressors are a style of watch that are really evocative of the 1960’s and ’70’s – which everyone seems to love these days (A certain Tudor is a great case in point).These watches aredesigned for diving, and are usually characterised by their twin crowns, one of which rotates an internal bezel. To get a bit more technical, super compressor actually refers to the method of sealing the case, where the seal is more effective under greater pressure – hence the caseback which ’slots’ rather than screws in. (find out more about super compressors here). We’ve shown you plenty fd these type of watches before, like this charming Wittnauer, or this modern take on the style from Prometheus.What we’ve got today for you is a Hamilton Aqua-Date (we’ve even shown you one of these before); a clean and eminently wearable design from Hamilton, with a great 60’s style (see those chunky hands and indices?). This watch usually goes for around $1000. Which brings us to why we’re showing you this watch today – it’s selling for $500. Yep, that’s a really great deal. And it’s not a non-functioning, rusty example either, tag heuer watches looks very clean and apparently functions perfectly.Don’t expect to see this vintage super compressor Hamilton Aqua-Date to be available for very long, so we strongly advise you head on over to Timezone and check it out now.Click here for details.Seriously, there is nothing wrong with an Omega Seamaster Professional. On the contrary. However, introducing yet another(!) 007-Limited edition Seamaster Pro really provokes making the good old 'Omega Limited Edition'-jokes. Seriously, 10.007 tag heuer carrera watches . It looks like Omega found another victim for their Limited Edition-jokes. Honoring a Limited Edition Speedmaster Professional with another Speedmaster Professional or even better�� Honoring the 2 Limited Edition Seamaster Pro 007 series with another Seamaster Pro 007 Limited Edition.Ok, all jokes aside now. This watch features the co-axial movement (Omega caliber 2500) and besides all Limited Edition crap on the dial and caseback, the case and bracelet are identical to those of the good??old ref.2531.80 Seamaster Professional. The model you should actually buy and cherish. Nuff said ??More specs over at WristWatchReview.Com
