    Lol, mine was 42 min today. I just had to remember that it rolled over past 30 min. Now I've gotta get the baby to daycare, my wife to school (back in college), and myself to work. I get tired just typing it all out.

    This is the watch that gave me the collecting bug. Ignore the calipers, but it is the best shot of the diamond dust dial that I have.

    There are a lot of Bulova divers that are cool but the "666" on all the dials freaks me out.

    :eek::eek::eek:

    But that's the coolest part! I can secretly feel like I'm still some sort of rebel while I'm sitting in a client meeting. :cool:

    All -- picked this up at a flea market last weekend. I just liked it and have been picking up some divers here and there the last few months. I don't know much about Bulovas. Is this a legit vintage (the letter/number combo on the back would date this to '69??), or just a knock off? I thought it was a newer one until I looked into it when I got home and saw this little guy is trying to tell me he's 50 years old..

    u my friend are a proud owner of an early dial configuration SNORKEL " OCEANOGRAPHER " it also has the correct early hand set as it should .. awesome find !!! .. M9 stands for 1969 .. note the dial @ six o clock ... " T SWISS T " ... the re issue would not have this mark as it uses a japanese movement urs should have a SWISS MADE BULOVA IN HOUSE MOVEMENT

    Wow! I am pretty shocked. Condition of it seems excellent - it actually same with the box the guy said was original and I was just kind of like ha ha, ok sure thanks. Very surprised — but I love it!

    JW - get after it man!
