All their subs are named after...subs!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amphion-class_submarine

 

A slight twist on the word Amphibian?
Maybe named after the son of Zeus?

EDIT - Right, named after a Submarine class, as my other watch is named after the Naken class of subs.

 

In Greek mythology Amphion and his brother Asterius were part of Jason's Argonauts.

 

I googled it. Wiki came up with 3 or 4 Amphions in Greek mythology, but none made sense in terms of horology or diving.

 

Thank you, I don't think they have the battery hatch gasket in stock anymore but it's given me a part no. I can search for.

 

Haven’t posted on the site yet - straying from the Omega postings. But happy to say in a face off I would go Japanese before Swiss

 

Seikos , yes please

 

All beautiful minters - nice collection!!

Seiko is everywhere - wabi?!



Or Minter??

 

Are you the king of Sumo? Very nice set but I've got to ask, is there another box with more inside, maybe a mod or two?

 

MORE Sumo than I've ever seen before!

 

The NTH range have the names of submarines which, in some way or other, are famous. Probably famous among the submariner community....

 

Seiko - some of mine....

 

That is a extensive collection of 7a38 and later chronographs.

One or two more required?

 

What do you mean?

 

Yes there are. But not my mods. Have three mods customized by school organizations.

 

i can't take the brand seriously. even though i like like several models. you can't brand like they do and expect to have fk off value.

how can you make a $100 watch you see lined up one after another in strip mall showcases and then try and sell me a 2k watch and expect me to be wow'd
