Re: Arrival......
Enough with the teasing...



Here they are....





With my Doxa that I'm wearing today.





Bathyscaphe 100, big and hefty, 22mm lugs, definitely putting on the omega mesh...





Vintage NOS, didn't expect it to be this size, slightly smaller than the 2nd generation Vostok Amphibian, same kind of pillow case.



Wrist shots



The Bathyscaphe 100 comes with a Isofrane rubber strap, the vanilla is driving me a little crazy thou.





The Vintage NOS diver comes with a tropic-like rubber strap.

Re: Arrival......

Re: Arrival......

The Vintage NOS is really small side by side with the Bathyscaphe but bearing in mind it was manufactured in the 60s.

My problem is, I can't bear to let go the old pieces.. I always say I want to flip all my chronographs... easily said than done. Every time I take them out for a photo shoot for sale, I put them back. :lol:



Some of the vintage pieces are really hard to come by, if they do, their prices won't be the same as before, so usually I flip the modern models as they can be easily purchased again. ;)

Casebacks





People who's following the vintage divers will know that after a certain date in 1960s, you can't advertise a waterproof watch. There's no such thing, they are only water resistance. :lol:
