Hello from Long Island
Hi, I'm Matt.
The Sub is the grail for me, but ... I've got other divers, I've got a TAG Heuer Aquaracer, I've got a Seiko SKX. So it was kind of a resolution: "OK, next watch will be NOT A DIVER!" I looked through the vintage stuff on eBay, and pulled the trigger on an Oysterdate, ref 6694. The serial number is 2.7 million, which puts it around 1970. The idea of a piece of machinery almost as old as I am still working perfectly is kinda neat
