Does anyone know where to find a good looking necklace that depicts a recreational scuba diver (ideally female) in good trim?

Not pewter.
No diamonds or other super $$$$ stuff.
Saltwater proof...
Not depicting a tech diver
Not depicting a flailing diver in 30 degree up trim
Not depucting a frog roadkill looking kind of thing
Not a pirate
Not a skull
...

Stainless steel or, better polished stainnless stell is OK.
Titanium is OK, maybe even great if "iridized".
Silver, I think would tarnish...
Anything that needs varnish to really resists the elements is not so great...
Gold could work, but the point is not to have something of real value around the neck...
 
Doesn't hit the criteria but maybe somewhat close?

With an ex girlfriend into such things... No luck finding something similar. Perhaps there's a market for it.

I sure think there is and someone is cornering it already just waiting for me to find them...
Not looking for DIY right now, too busy as is....

Hey, it hits "in trim"...
Does look a bit diecast / pewter-ish...

Thing is, I am not quite sure what I am looking for, it is one of those know it when I see it things...

I've had success with hiring a goldsmith online. 3d modelling and casting with great skill and sadly low markup. Perhaps it could be useful to look into.

I may do that sort of thing. Too tied up these days ... certainly not in time for Xmas. But I was thinking similar thoughts after looking for a while and not yet having found "it"
 
So, let me get this straight.

You're looking for a Necklace
as well as a dangly widget geegaw fetish thing,
A mini-sculpture that portrays a female diver.
"trim" (sounds like Navy slang for I don't remember what)

Remember, a pendant with diver in good trim can get all cattywampus like a cruise ship diver if she were to, say, bend over a couch or something like that. Just sayin'.

Good that you started early assuming there's a deadline near the 25th..

I used this thing called the Googles for <silver scuba girl> and found several possibilities, one that I really liked was www.miss-scuba.com

My gift receiver (of 17 years now) has been given all the dive gear, jewelry, cars and free reign buying purses that a gal could want. This year it's a CCR.

Contact @gypsyjim. I believe he is an artisan jeweler and of course is active on this board. Send him a message or reach out. He can help you.
Cheers,

Sounds like a cool Christmas gift is being planned. I cannot help, unfortunately. But, if you find one, please post here. Because I will bet there are others who would love to locate such an item.
