What makes a Tuna?

[daveswordfish]

Pet peeve time.

I am a fan of the tunas. BIG fan!

The Arnie is not a Tuna.
The Sawtooth is not a Tuna.
The "Baby Tuna" is not a Tuna.

It's not just the shroud that makes it a
tuna. It's also the fact that its an He gas
saturation diver that needs no release valve because its engineered to keep the helium out of the case in the first place. None of the aforementioned non-tunas can do this.

Throwing a shroud on a dive watch, rubber or otherwise, does not a tuna make.

Ok...this has been bugging me for some time. I feel much better now. Cheers!

Oh...you are totally free to call whatever you like a tuna. It's not for me to say. It's just been bugging me and I had to vent. :-)
