    Not sure if this one already passed by, but I’m currently having this Ardath Reefguard Denis Diver serviced, after which it will be going away for a decent relume.

    I like that large scuba guy on the dial:

    Here another less common diver from my collection:

    Aquastar 63 made for Nemrod diving in Spain.

    Two new arrivals.

    On the left is a Philly Caribbean 700 (Jenny case), ref 703 case and signed bracelet. Guessing early 60s radium dial, but more info/insights is appreciated!

    On the right is a Hamilton Pan Europ 704 on Hamilton mesh, made for only 1-2 years in the early 70s. This one I've been hunting for several months and missed a couple before now. But they didn't have a Hammy bracelet, so it was meant :D

    Congrats, I was quite tempted by the red bezeled Philip Watch and am glad to see it in good hands.:thumbsup: There’s a guy on Instagram Peterfox50 who has a huge collection of those, he could probably tell you a lot.

    I want to be a part of the Vantage club here. So this is mine.

    This is the obscure Electric version with the Standard Time Corp. 130E. Basically a Japan-made/modified Hamilton 505 movement.

    The wrist-time to price ratio for this one is off the charts.

    I recently picked up this Aquadive 200 ref. 1941, circa 1971, for my wife....powered by an ETA 2671.
