Horological Meandering

Maybe you remember a previous thread posted some years ago. I posted a picture of what are, to me, among the nicest and the most important Diving watches from the 50ies: Now, let's go to the 60ies... There were much more brands involved in Diving watches,...  

Never published... Now the collaction has changed a bit... One piece less..Stolen, the SM 300. And a few others more. More to come... Best, Nicolas

Outstanding collection.

as my wife would say. :) What a seriously awesome collection of 60s dive watches! I wouldn't know where to begin to pick a favourite, so your idea to collect them all is the best. :) Thanks for an eye-popping moment Nicolas. ;) cheers fernando

You can say the same to your wife with a colletion of girlfriends. :) :) :) Best, Nicolas

as indiana jones would say this dive watch collection, "belongs in a museum" congrats on advancing from collector to curator :)

but I'd add Eberhard to the list of the best of the late '50s and '60s. Cheers, Tony C.

...Or are they from the 1970s? I was never sure whether they were serious diving watches or just chunky jewellery (as Rolexes are for most of us desk divers). At least they should be available at a reasonable price.

You GuyS inspire me, choose something and stay focused* on it in order to get the max of it and being thoroughly involved in the subject. Do not do anything without passion. Congrats * ok ok Nicolas is focused on many subjects I can't deny :)

I will have to show you some things... ;) Best, Nicolas

...  

Where diving really developped and not only military. Fouvrites ? The early Fifty definitelw and... the Breitling 807 ( nasty choice :p ) Cheers François

Quite a lot missing… Still, a very fine lineup your have there. Bravo. Three of them also happen to be among my favorites because they are completely different. Early scaffograph, red bezel, and cricket mariner I must confess I am more of a 50's divers pe... 

You didn't see all... ;) But I kind of agree with you, Divers from the Fifties are more attractive, in terms of design. Best, Nicolas

... and I´m sure that sooner or later you will be adding a Tudor Snow flake to your stable. A fabulous collection fot sure, a dream for us dive watches lovers. I look forward to read that "Mega Diving Watches" post soon! Un abrazo mi amigo! Afectuosamente...
