    I bought way too many watches in the past year and I need to move some of them on.

    Up for sale today is my Bulova Oceanographer 333 from 1969. It has a white(ish) dial with black and ruby red markers at 3, 6, 9 and 12. The watch presents quite well to the naked eye; however, there are a few spots on the dial that are visible with magnification. The 35mm unpolished all-steel case wears plenty large. It comes on a blue and red NATO strap. The service history is unknown but it winds, sets and runs just fine. The crown is marked BULOVA.

    I do not have a movement photo because I am reluctant to open the watch for fear of damaging it. If the movement shot is a deal-killer, I can have my watchmaker open it and take a photo, although that would take some time to accomplish.

    I am asking $255 shipped CONUS, with other destinations to be considered on a case-by-case basis.

    I always flinch a little when sellers say "no returns", so take 48 hours to inspect the watch and, if you like, return it at your expense. After that, the sale is final.

    I like this I mean it’s nice. I like the devil diver but I got this weird thing about wearing things marked 666, I’m just not feeling it. 333 is a good compromise

    I have exactly the same model, and like it very much. The red accents really bring it alive, and I have found the movement to be quite reliable. I tend to wear it during inclement weather.

    GLWTS!

    Wow can’t believe it’s here. Too many recent purchases for me. A case at 35 is perfect for a son or Gf/wife….

    this would be a super nice gateway gift.
