I just got a black dial, yellow gold Skymaster on a leather strap. I love it. Very legible. Matt Image Unavailable, Please Login
Oh, the subdial is set for Greek time. I have friends there and I know when and when not to chat with them. And I just realized that it’s 12 hours off! Matt
I do. Something felt off when I posted that. (It’s spelled out on the dial!) Sky-Dweller, right. Thanks! Matt

Pol, I’d go toe to toe with you, but sadly the lume on my 1984 Sub died many moons ago! Lol. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Lol, honestly just walked into the bathroom to pick up the thrash and noticed the lume. Easy for forget the Subs are utilitarian dive watches.
In the early 90s I worked for the Beach and Pool unit of the Chicago Park District. There was an older supervisor who was also a PADI instructor who wore a Sea Dweller. He had been certifying the police, fire, and Park District rescue crews for decades. He always wore the Sea Dweller whether at a pool, beach, or diving.
My 5512 Sub used to be my beach/pool watch. Then I found out what it’s worth. Uh, nope, not any more.
I used to wear my 5513 to the beach all the time and go swimming and body surfing. Until I joined Fchat, I always thought the salt water somehow messed up my dial. Now I know it was from a faulty/experimental finish applied to the dial.

Yeah, they used to be $2-$4k watches. Then the vintage boom hit. Now? I’ve see 5512’s in the mid 20’s.
Haven't checked in a while; apparently mid 20's in common now. Holy moly, what a $hitshow! https://www.chrono24.com/search/index.htm?dosearch=true&manufacturerIds=221&maxAgeInDays=0&onlyDealerAds=false&pageSize=60&priceFrom=0&priceTo=-1&query=5512&redirectToSearchIndex=true&sortorder=0
