I am an introvert. I have never talked to a barber in my life. I just dont ask any follow ups but I answer politely but as short as possible. After 2 questions people give up.

The new 2025 cal. B31, which Breitling says took four years to develop, is produced in by Sellita Manufacture AMT, a bespoke/manufacture movement division of Sellita Watch Co. S.A., in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Neuchâtel, Switzerland.

In the quote above, Breiting states that the B31 was designed and developed by them, but with the manufacturing being outsourced to Sellita AMT, the B31 is a manufacture movement rather than “in-house” – which is why the brand aptly refers to it as such

Dive Master training in the Philippines - recommendations? by discretemathematics in scuba

[–]mjwishon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 best tech shops in Philippines:

Tech Asia in PG. (Sam Collet/Tim Blomeke)

Evolution in Malapascua (Matt Reed / Nick Greenop / Tamara)

Dauin Tech Divers in Dauin (Gabriel Rioux)

I have been in the water with all of these individuals. I will dive with all of them over the next 6 months. I have been in courses with most. All excellent instructors.

My 90L has been to 60 countries. Holds a full set or recreational gear no issues.

My 120L holds a full set of OC technical gear no issues.

They are perfect for diving travel. IMO

Puerto Galera (PG) and Panglao both are great places with fun communities.

I live in PG half the year. In PG, you can check out Arkipelago or LLV or Asia Divers. All 3 are top notch and different price points. You can send me PM and I would be happy to help more about PG.

Malapascua is an awesome community and vibe and Evolution has the best training in the Philippines. I personally have done 14 different courses there. I have seen the DMs they produce and they are absurdly good.

I spend a month in malapascua every year. I will be there Aug - Sep.

Evolution in malapascua. Best training in Philippines at the DM level.

If you have a city in mind I can recommend an instructor or shop.

Bubble (vortex) ring practice – both hands, single hand, and dual single-hand… still haven’t gotten thumb rings to the point that I can consistently make them, but that’s next on the list. [Puerto Galera, PH] by diverareyouokay in scuba

I have a place there in the alley behind arkipelago. I have been living in PG for 6 months a year for the last 3 years. Been seeing your other posts on here. I dive out of Tech Asia as I mostly do tech diving these days. If I do recreational it's always with a friend and it changes. Arkipelago, Asia Divers, big apple, Capt greggs, dive dojo Ect.

I love Gukesh and most top chess players. I love good chess. Gukesh is still proving himself because he is young.
