Yes my captain
This model is a reissue of a model from the 70s. The vintage side is there, everything is successful, the watch gives an impression of impressive quality (which justifies the 2000€ that had to be invested to afford it). However, I almost regret having taken this model because the 200m water resistance seems weak to fill the diver's box in my collection. Nevertheless, I appreciate its finesse, finishes and the way its dial plays with the light. A nice watch in short, but I recommend going for the new version which displays better water resistance (300m).
