Hi everyone!

Has anyone been watching Bear Grylls recently? Has anyone noticed the new watch he's wearing? Looks like he's traded his classic yellow-faced emergency for a new piece.. Anyone know what it is? Been trying to figure it out but his cameraman isn't exactly taking great footage of the watch.

Thanks in advance!! :lingsrock:

I thought recently he alternated between a grey dial Emergency and a Bremont ALT1-P ?

I just watched a new (Season 3, Part 2) episode where he goes to Transylvania, Romania and he was wearing a black or gray dial Emergency on black Diver Pro strap. Edit: I just watched the Yukon episode tonight and he was wearing it again. The dial did look more grey than black...did Breitling make a grey dial?

In the Hell's Canyon, Oregon episode he had something else that I could not get a good look at, but it wasn't a Breitling or a Bremont ALT1-P. I could make out a subdial at 6 o'clock (and another at 12 I think) but not at 9 o'clock that had shiny circular outlines...like this Tag Carrera:

I doubt it was actually a Carrera, though, because he spent a lot of time in water, and the Carrera is only water-proof to 50M. It was probably a diver's watch. Any guesses? The texturing of the dial made me think "Oris", but I did not see the multicolor bezel of the Oris TT1 Diver:
