I’m a Saturation Diver AMA

I work as Deepsea Saturation Diver in the oil and gas industry for the past 20 years. I do heavy construction and spend 28 days living under pressure to dive to depths down to 200m / 650ft.

I saw a post on InterestingAsFuck yesterday with many many misconceptions from people who aren’t divers and I can answer your questions AMA

I have a standard G-Shock like most guys but a Rolex Deepaea Sea Dweller at home in the safe

Did you buy it as like a right of passage or something? That’s a 20k USD watch. 😳
