After posting up about it, I got to picking apart some of the things I don't like about the PRW-S3500. Feature wise it's just about the perfect watch out there for the money. I decided that it's unfortunately just too big for my wrists. I like big watches but this is gigantic (57mm x 53mm) and it's hard for me to wear comfortably even on the nato strap. I also realized after wearing it a bit yesterday that I really miss the "negative" display of my old Protrek and that not having the STN display (Super-Twisted Nematic technology that allows you to see the digital display MUCH better from different angles) was a huge detractor. I just don't find as much interest looking at a positive display.

So I pulled the trigger on the Protrek PRW-3100Y-BCR (asia spec) last night! It doesn't have the carbon fiber band or sapphire crystal like the current piece and has about half the water resistance. It does however have all of the same features that matter, is significantly smaller, thinner and lighter and is still good down to 330+ feet which is more than I'll ever need it for. It also has a slightly newer / updated chip and the far superior STN display. This should be way more versatile to wear than the S3500. I should come close to break even when I sell the PRW-S3500 so a good deal all around!



I will also be for sure selling the Nighthawk with sapphire crystal upgrade since it will be getting zero wrist time when my vintage diver returns from its overhaul, so stay tuned if you are interested!
