    i'm sure many here drool over the skindivers from the 50/60/70's


    here's a rare bird that's full size to boot

    it's hard to capture the perfect condition, semi sunburst-light brown, captain cook like color dial.

    the good one... 1944 Elgin canteen, USN issue.
    I can never get the Elgin / USN BuShips markings on the face to show up in a photograph, they're gloss black on matt black
