By TLex HELSON have produced a Tantalum version of their Shark Diver. For those who aren't au fait Tantalum aka Tantalium. It is a rare and very hard metal with lovely blue-gray color. It is also extremely heavy. The Shark Diver Tantalum weighs in at 250g on its rubber strap. For comparison the the SD Bronze weighs 193g and the SD Titanium weighs just 140g.
