My father gave to me, his DJ, rodium dial, machinery bezel and "plastic" (is that correct) crystal, when I was 18.

Unfortunately, I was robbed and a guy took my beloved rollie, then I bought one, equal my father's watch, but with saphire crystal.

I own this watch, the DJ, and now I have a Sea Dweller, bought used last year, at 36.

That's it.
