Gorgeous....My father had the exact one until my wicked step-sister stole it from his closet.

My folks bought this for me when I joined the Navy in January, 1966.

At times it had a rough life, but was restored to this condition by RSC Dallas in 2006.

Recently I took mine off its bracelet to try something new and started wearing it on a vintage leather strap. I can't get enough of it. Here's what she looks like. Enjoy....

Is this the same dial as yours? It looks the same, but I may be missing something

Mauiguy · 18 October 2018, 10:30 AM

Not the same. On the MK1 (Type 1) maxi, the horizontal crossbars in the letter f and t of the depth rating are aligned. There's other differences in general. Here's a good explanation.

Thank you for the info. I’m going to inherit the pictured watch and was just wondering about the reference.

I absolutely do. And I’ll treat it with the respect it deserves. I’ll also wear it in honor of my great friend so that his memory will live on whenever anyone comments on the watch that I’m wearing. Mahalo 🤙🏽✝️
