Here's my 67 Seamaster automatic date (wearing it today by chance

) and 69 pre-moon Speedmaster

Not really vintage... but sort of vintage...

T5AUS · 19 October 2011, 07:26 AM

Very nice Kyle, they look in great condition

Here you go. Belongs to my twin brother. Given to him as a gift by our grandfather around 1975.

Not sure what the dial is... I have been told it could be a "Soccer" dial? That may explain the 30min sub-dial and the 45min marker? Alternatively, other have suggested sailing... timing of regattas etc? I'm happy for any info anyone has.

Either way, it's a nice watch

T5AUS · 20 October 2011, 12:03 AM

Hey, thats an interesting chronograph John, never seen anything like it before. I presume the bezel rotates using the crown on the left side, perhaps an aviators watch

Nice

Porsche · 20 October 2011, 12:36 AM

Thanks Phil. I have just uploaded another pic of the dial.

Yes, crown at 10 o'clock rotates the inner bezel. There must be some significance for the sub-dials, 15 & 30 and then 45 min, with the last 5 min marked with a thicker black ring...

Watch is a manual wind.

Aviators...? Could be. I'm hoping someone here may have more info...

I found this one John after a lot of searching (thanks to Tomvox1 on chronotrader) Same watch, different colours.

Full details here http://www.chronocentric.com/forums/...=read;id=21226

Porsche · 20 October 2011, 09:46 PM

Wow! Thanks Phil

Yes, ultra rare... looks like we were both correct... soccer dial, regattas... whatever

I think I'm lusting more for the Stratos it's laying on, ha ha.

Excellent find, lots of details. I have sent Peter (my twin) the link.

Thanks buddy
