Video: A Collector Discusses Mike Nelson's (Lloyd Bridges') Sea Hunt Watches

As a fan of Sea Hunt, I came across this video regarding Mike Nelson's (Lloyd Bridges') watches from the Sea Hunt TV series including a submariner (which might have actually been an pre-Sub Oyster Perpetual). Although he doesn't seem that knowledgeable about the Sub in particular, I found it interesting nonetheless.

Seems to be a counterfeit Sub that he holds up for the camera? No PCLs on a standard black sub.

Good eyes. How annoying considering the subject matter.

Sea Hunt aired from 1958-1961. That would not be the type of Submariner worn by Mike Nelson - keen observers will note it was a date model in the video.
