    Bulova Oceanographer Snorkel 666
    Movement: 11AOACB Day and Date AUTOMATIC
    Case Ref# - 7095-1
    friction [no click] mounted, Bi-directional " Coke " Bezel

    note:
    Case Ref# 7095-1 looks similar to case ref# 714 [date only model with 60 click uni-directional coke bezel] but is ... NOT ... the same, and will not house properly 11BLACD movement

    Has Anyone compared the re-issue side by side with an original of the same style? If so can you show pics and do a mini-review of the new one?

    I’ve always wanted a bulova 666 chronograph as it has both the diver bezel and chrono but the prices has risen a lot last couple of years!

    Bought these within a few days of each other last year.
    Love em! They are very worth the money but yes, good examples are in demand.

    These pics bring back good memories of my Bulova 666 with an Orange dial...yes, it was amazing...
    Now I sport a manual-wind Bulova Oceanographer "Super Waterproof" as my daily wear watch to remind me...when I find the pics I will post them here!
