By TLex For me the DELMA Santigo BlueShark 3000m was probably one of the most unexpected finds of the Basel watch fair this year. Not only was it a pleasant surprise to see Delma making a truly noteworthy diver (until recently the Santiago line consisted only of sub-clones), but this was also a watch that with its 3000m water-resistance is now ranked as one of the deepest divers on the planet. It sits alongside only 5 other 3000m divers models with just 7 further models that actually have a higher depth rating, and it will be tested! Something rather special and really quite cool for a company such as DELMA!
From my personal experience of the BlueShark (brief that it was), the watch felt really solid. Its 316L stainless case had much weight to it, its arched case, which was fitted with a lateral decompression valve, which in some ways could be likened to a Rolex DEEP SEA wasn't the star of the show, that honor would have to go to the BlueShark's black textured dial and striking retro handset that Delma had taken from a previous model of theirs that was in existence in the 1980s. Other remarkable features of the watch included a rugged ergonomic divers bezel with enlarged notches to allow for better grip even when wearing divers gloves (available in either steel or PVD), a massive divers clasp of the type used by CX Swiss Military Watches and the use of hex-screws for the lugs and possibly (I forget) the links on the bracelet.
The BlueShark comes presented in a solid wooden box, is supplied with a rubber divers strap and a specialized tool for strap changes. Price is 1'800CHF. (live image)

By TLex Please see the message below from STOLAS Watch Co. who have made a special edition of their diver, the Gennaker to raise funds for the Red Cross' Tsunami Relief. Further details of the project can found on the Stolas Facebook page.
From STOLAS When you see pictures of helpless victims struggling after a tragic event such as the recent Tsunami it moves the human heart to want to reach out and help. As a watch company we spent hours discussing how we could best be able to provide aid in a way that would encourage others to follow suite. We have decided to do two huge ventures of which we are donating proceeds to the American Red Cross Tsunami relief. The first is a 12 day raffle for the Stolas Gennaker watch. Raffle tickets can purchased for $20 each and an individual can buy as many tickets as they wish.
The second benefit we have put together for Tsunami relief is a limited 10 piece "Tsunami edition" of the Gennaker watch. These watches have a red second hand and a special relief logo on the dial. Two of the ten pieces will be auctioned off with 100% of the proceeds going directly to the Red Cross. The two watches that are being auctioned will also be unique in that they will feature a Swiss ETA 2824 movement with a Sapphire case back. The other eight pieces of the Tsunami edition Gennaker will be for sale on the Stolas website with 50% of the proceeds being donated. Pre-Orders for the remaining eight pieces will begin April 16th at 12pm CST. The price will be $650.
