Interesting One hell of a dive watch. I wonder how many ATM'S it rated at. Seller must think he has a SO!

Ya think... "Oh that diver on the back, that is Willy Breitling himself from his days diving with Jacque Cousteau on the Calypso. You know nothing"!!!!!

Jacque: "As I swim among the fishes of the oceeeean I gaze to my left to see my watchmaker Willy striking a fantastic pose for new me and my Nikonos camera. I shoot!! We rise from thee oceeeeean floor and I tell Willy this shall adorn your newest dive watch, the SuperOceeeean".

I think Fred has the full size bronze cast in his archives.

You know I think you are right. I totally agree this is the first Superoceeeean!! :woohoo:

Fred may have the statue but I haven't seen the watch next to striped cuff shirt. Since I assume it is extremely valuable maybe he will grace us with it's presents on WWAYWT for a special occasion.
