    Hi OF members,

    Up for sale is my one of my best condition divers in the collection, the vintage 1960s Bulova 666 Feet. This is not a rare watch, but finding one in this condition really took me a while. Here’s the details:

    1. Case: 35mm w/o crown, stainless steel case. Case is in great shape, very sharp, looks like has NOT been polished before. Lugs corners are very sharp. Case back is in pristine condition.

    2. Dial & hands: all original & perfect condition. Deep black mirror dial is stunning in person, especially under the sun. Lume spots are all original, thick, aged to a lovely sunburnt color.

    3. Movement: original movement is as clean as the overall condition. It keeps very good time & runs strong. The watch has been serviced by previous owner in 2017, runs very well under my possession, hence I have never sent it for service. Date change smoothly between 10PM-12AM. Accuracy is unknown as it’s not important to me. Photo of movement will be taken upon request.

    4. Crown: original & signed, wind & set time smoothly.

    5. Glass: original crystal with loupe at date window, thick and shiny. Due to the sharpness of the crystal edge, I don’t think the crystal is polished before.

    6. Bracelet: includes a full-length original bracelet is in very good condition, fit up to 20-21cm wrist. Claps is unsigned but I think it is original to the bracelet. See attached advertisement.
    Other info and condition of sale:

    1. Reason for sale is to thin my collection. There is nothing wrong with the watch.
