Seeking vintage dive watches

[GulfDiver1969]

Folks,

I am a diver that has an interest in finding and restoring old mechanical dive watches. A colleague told me the other day he recently tossed two old dive watches. I want to prevent this from happening!

If anyone has old dive watches lying around that are no longer use and you wish to unload them, I might be interested. Please send me a private message.

Thanks,

Chris

That is a nice one, but too new for my taste. I am looking pre 1980. I think yours was made in the 1990s, but correct me if I am wrong.

I bought some used rip curl tidemaster watches on eBay, there are more available.
They work, but i have yet to test them as waterproof.
Also I saw this article:
