Hey Guys:

I love the dive-watch genre and my best watch is a ROLEX 5513 c 1970....

However, because of limited finances, I started reading up on other brands.

That's when I ran across a great article on HODINKEE about the ZODIAC SEA WOLF. I picked up 2 in short order at reasonable prices and sorted out any minor issues they had....they have lots of variations and are pretty easy to work on...

I also found a HELBROS diver that was really interesting; it's a full 39 mm vs the 35.5 for the ZODIACs.

Life is good!
