Collectible wristwatches - SBS quartz diver's watch

Thursday, 26 April 2012

One of the most robust and accurate watches I've ever owned was a diver's watch originally issued to the Special Boat Squadron and Royal Marines (if memory serves me right). Its high quality movement and black, reflection-proof and waterproof case made it ideal for its function. 

It's one of many watches I have bought and sold and one of the very few I subsequently regretted letting go - but we can't let regrets rule our lives, can we?
