The Telson's got some good reviews, 6497 fitted, LE I believed, seems lume is just awesome... I like some of the boutique brands offerings and the Blue Telson, is one of them.

They still nice...well made it seems and expensive, as far as Dan's take on them as a "parts-bin brand"? it could be ...personally, I haven't seen that case or general design for that matter, anywhere else.

I've always felt that a dive watch should be an automatic. The idea that you have to compromise the water resistance to keep it functioning seems backwards and poorly designed. But realistically, 99% of dive watches will see, at most, 12 feet of water in a pool on an irregular basis. And modern materials and manufacturing being what they are, it's probably an unfounded notion.

I agree, the Serket Telson however , is not a dive watch , nor is sold ( or advertised) as a diver...

In 2008-2010 or so they were around forums. I remember Ron aka barnbuilder had one.



About

Greetings from Serket Watch Company

Originally Launched in 2006, SWC is a boutique watch brand with a vision to deliver quality and function with an emphasis on originality and attitude.

Models are produced in limited quantities with only the best components.

2021 marks the relaunch of the brand in all aspects including new designs and aspirations.



What does Serket mean?

Serket is the Egyptian Goddess of the Scorpion. She takes the form of a woman with a scorpion on her head always ready to strike, or a scorpion’s tail with the head of a woman. More often, she just takes the form of the scorpion itself. Her name means one who tightens the throat...



What is a microbrand?

Microbrand watches are wristwatches produced by independent watch companies that have an output of about 300–2000 watches per year.

The first microbrands debuted in the early to mid-2000s. With the advent of the Internet, brands were able to distribute watches directly to consumers within e-commerce, without taking on the overhead usually associated with luxury goods such as retail locations, marketing budgets, and other associated costs.

Many brands that started (or were revived) during this period are now called "legacy microbrands" within the watch enthusiast community.
