    This one just arrived today, picked up on another forum from a really cool OF member that sold me a sweet Omega chrono a few years back. I have been obsessed with the early Poerouter Subs since I first saw Jeff's (bristnj) beauty (if you haven't seen it search the WRUW thread as it is well worth the effort), which despite my many entreaties he was smart enough to keep. On the positive side Jeff helped me consider and critique a few of these Subs that have popped up over the months and had actually seen this one and recommended it to me (one of the reasons I love this place!). Anyway, it is a worthy addition to my vintage diver collection and I am very excited to have picked it up after a lot of searching. Wearing it now with a big grin. Need to tone down before going home to avoid suspicion on the home front. Will correct the date later but good for now. The bezel is much cleaner than it shows in the pic.

    I had one too. Love it deeply.

    Becareful of the bakelite bezel, I read/heard that its very brittle and easily damaged. Great purchase, lovely custard lume (matching to the bezel)

    Nice example, be careful that bezel can be spotted a mile away! Congrats Nick

    Wow that’s amazing! Love the look, amazing condition!

    Is it a diver though? Looks like a GMT 12 hour with a 25 minute timer bezel.

    Congrats. Would love to see how it wears in a few different lighting conditions. Really sharp.
