Thanks Sergio. The old 1000 series (980.XXX) are very submariner in style. There's a 1000M large cased version that's even more Rolex in style. Thankfully they don't have the Rolex price tag... and it might be Quartz, but I've got a lot of love for it.
Yep, my tag is also Quartz but it was my first good watch as a kid so I love it. Once I get home I'll "NATO " it and post.
Awww heck, you both made me nostalgic. Also the first good watch I got as a kid after destroying many swatches over several years. I've had this watch since '88 or '89. I actually had to put it in the freezer a few months ago to get the case back off to change the battery. Still works great and somewhere I have a new crystal for it. Also on a navy NATO.
Here it is. Chose a black NATO but may try the green later. I'll wear it tomorrow. Here goes to the quartz Tag of the eighties!!
