Finally I got it

Bravo Jocke! Great find! A new old stock vibe - 👍👍👍

Yes both unique and retro too.

Really digging the retro vibe here! 🔥🔥🔥

I love it. The cool hand luke bad ass watch. Ready to rumble.

Yes really bad. 😂😂

One of the very good surprises of this year, in my opinion. Bravo, Jocke, and congrats on the nice photos, too. This watch is not easy to take in picture!

Yes it's a pain to shoot, domed and non antireflecting does not help. 😂

Domed and a bit flat on the top of the dome. Mastering the beast won't be that easy. It reminds me the Fiddy PAM 127, a bit.

I love this

#metoo 😂

Really cool.

This one is a production model so it should not be a problem to find I guess.

Great choice …

Fantastic shots!

This is awesome

Yes, they were tested along with the Rolex 6538, the Enicar, and the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. And the winner was the Fifty Fathoms Milspec!

Brilliant ! :) I have some more reading :) Thank you Nico.

It is a topic I like a lot. :)))

It looks great

That's actually really handsome!

Really a pleasure watch.

Awesome shots as usual dear Jocke! This is a very enjoyable diving watch and a lot of a timepiece for its price. So cool and charming. Your pictures make it more desirable yet.

Thanks my friend

My big pleasure always dear Jocke! Thank you for your kind comments and agree with your thought about this watch. Keep enjoying it so much! Best, Abel

Not a bad shot at all, amigo mio. Dexter was fast on that one!

Ha ha ha!! Thank you so much for your kind compliments dear Nicolas!

I wonder if they are still available.

I was lucky to find a completely brand new set at almost original retail price in a well known internet site. I guess it is possible to find it.

Yes, but in the US... I will check your PM. Gracias, amigo Dexter.

Ahh yes. They are in the USA. True!

Which is not easy for me. BUT I found a solution. ;)

I understand my friend. I´m glad to know you can find a solution! Cheers! Abel

Gracias!

Con placer mi amigo!

Awesome looking

Thanks for the kind words

Thx Jocke, I might have a look more on the watch - looks great maybe as a beater :-)

YES!

You captured the watch so well.

Love this piece
