Within just one year, three rather similar dive watches were brought to market. Omega released its Seamaster 300, Eberhard introduced the Scafograf 300 M, and Doxa launched its reference 11804-4. The trio shared a distinct new lyre-lugged case sourced from case makers Huguenin Frres. Yes, that very case would later be used for the Speedmaster, albeit in a modified form. The Doxa Sub 200 you see here is a direct reissue of the Doxa 11804-4. Considering the above, I think Doxa has every right to proudly bring back this case, even if it may be more strongly associated with Speedies nowadays.
The 2019 reissue is called the Sub 200, which, as is often (but not always) the case with Doxa nomenclature, tells you it has a water resistance rating of 200 meters. It measures 42mm across, but its lug-to-lug of only 46mm means it wears a lot smaller. The thickness of 13.8mm is really not as bad as it sounds. Much of it is down to the box-type sapphire crystal and the protruding case back, which nestles into the wrist. I would say this wears like a rather elegant 40mm diver. This is one of those watches that is quite poorly represented by its cold numbers.
There is one thing that bugs me more, which is the dial. I think it is incredibly close to perfection. The color, the texture, and the layout are all pretty much on. I love the sparse printing and the vintage fonts too. But then the hands are black, while the applied indices are silver in color. This is a mismatch that ruins an otherwise absolute home run. If those indices also had a black coating, this would easily be one of my favorite dials for a dive watch.
Lastly, the lume is very disappointing. I am unsure whether it is the compound used or that it has been overly diluted during application. But from its looks, I would have expected the Doxa to light up like a Christmas tree. I am sorry to report that it does not. If you are a lume fanatic, I think you are better off with a Seiko diver.
I knew all of the above in advance, yet I bought it anyway. So what is it that made me forgive the Doxa Sub 200 for its flaws? Well, for starters, that bright yellow dial helps a lot! The color is just spot on. It has the punch of lemon yellow and the warmth of pineapple yellow. It is precisely that splash of color that I long for in summer. I tend to lean towards subtle, subdued watches. This is a nice departure from the sea of silver and black that is my watch box.
I also love how this is a vintage reissue that does not look like one. It is perfectly contemporary and fresh-looking, even though it is a rather faithful reincarnation of a 1963 design. This is in part due to the color I chose. The black and blue versions feature beige lume, which gives them more of a vintage look. This is why I would opt for the yellow, turquoise, or white versions. The iconic Doxa orange model also features yellowed lume, but it looks less like faux patina there. So my advice: go bright!
Obviously, the Doxa Sub 200 has a couple of flaws. If this were my primary watch, I would be much more bothered by its quirks. But I use this exclusively as a lighthearted summer watch, making it quite easy to look past its shortcomings.
I bought a lightly used 2021 example of the blue Caribbean model and I really love this watch. The possible move to the Sellita movement on the new stock did enter my mind, even though I doubt that movement is a problem. I suppose it is nice to have the ETA though.
I live doxa and my daily is a searambler but as I dive watch aficionado poor lume is just a sign of being lazy. In this day and age there is no reason to get subpar lume, especially on a dive watch. Both of my subs were professionally relumed to my taste and nothing to complain about now.
For those times where I actually need lume to last through the night (camping, night hiking, etc), I wear either my Marathon GSAR with tritium tubes or a Garmin Epix with AMOLED. The rest of the time, lume is really irrelevant to me.
I have searched the web for a solution to "auto-update" my Selenium EdgeDriver automatically. For those who use SeleniumBasic, you know it can be a hassle to manually download the driver from the respective webpage every so often when your main Host browser gets a major update.
Now I don't claim this to be the perfect solution, but it at least works. The problem I can see in the future is that layouts of each respective webpage may change, so I do welcome updates if this is the case and I will try to update as well. But for the most part, it should just work.
While this is a Self-Answered question, I absolutely would love to see other methods posted here for myself and other users to try out. SeleniumBasic is a good tool for certain applications, but often lacks community support as VBA is not as widely used in the community as other languages - at least not on a more sophisticated level.
I should start out by saying that I am only supporting Chrome and Edge drivers for the time being. But if you can follow along, you might be able to add your own support for any of the other SeleniumBasic-supported WebDrivers.
I decided to make this a Class Object because I intend to build a little on it in the future. You may add your own Properties and functions as you wish, but the code being provided will only allow updating the WebDrivers, at least for now.
Important Tip: I am not sure if there is a delay between when you update your web browser and when the drivers are officially released. Therefore before updating your driver, I would put some error handling to see if Selenium throws an error first. If the driver does not match the browser version, Selenium will throw error # 33. If you check for this error, you should be safe to go ahead and update the WebDriver at this point. What we want to prevent is that you update your driver before your browser is automatically updated, causing mismatching versions.
The purpose of this is to set the default file paths for the SeleniumBasic folder and temp file. However, if your folder is somewhere else, this class has a property to which you can change the folder manually. Just use the ClassObj.SeleniumFolderPath() property to establish your new path.
Upon calling the UpdateDriver method, the class will place a GET request to the respective driver's webpage, then grab the current version # from the page. It will then pass this driver version to the DownloadUpdatedDriver routine, which stores the download links for each respective driver. For Chrome, the link is: _win32.zip, and for Edge it's: _win64.zip. It's important to realize that if you happen to be using the 32 bit version of Edge, you will need to change the URL to edgedriver_win32.zip. This routine downloads the .zip file to your local AppData's Temp Folder.
After the file has been downloaded, we then proceed to call the ExtractZipAndCopy routine. This simply extracts the .exe files to the Selenium Folder, first deleting the old file. Edge does a little extra maintenance work, but you're now essentially updated!
I hope this helps someone out there who is annoyed as I am having to periodically update these drivers and was wanting an automated solution. Please feel free to edit this answer if minor changes are needing to be made, such as if a URL is broken.
There is now an API to check Latest Release of ChromeDriver. So the code can become shorter. Also, adding a functionality to run the update only if the current chrome version does not match installed chromedriver version. And to copy using administrator rights.I am not using Edge so that code functionality is not there in my code.
