Just pickup up this lovely 1991 Sea-Dweller
Part exchanged my 14060 for a ceramic 114060 a week ago.... regretted it immediately and went back to the shop to get this little beauty!
Definitely the older sport models for me, I was drawn in by the build and finish of the new model but I feel this has more character! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Wow. It's examples like yours that make me appreciate both the mondern, and less modern pieces, even more 😃

Thanks everyone, I love the slight mellow yellow of the lume. I got it from Miltons in Liverpool. Dealt with two guys called Phil and Michael, they did me a great deal with my 14060 in swap. They also didn't hessitate to say yes when I asked to go back and swap the ceramic 114060 that i did the deal on originally. Great customer service, accurately described honest watches, I would highly recommend them!

Shes a beauty and MUCH better than the latest ceramic version, and more character IMHO.
