But A Story Of How It Traveled The WORLD
For Decades Then Was Lost Then Found
And Then Resurrected

UPDATE 05/24/09
The Watch Is Complete
I have worn the watch for several days
and will place photos asap!

UPDATE 05/27/09

THE BEST CONCUSION WAS TO LEAVE THE ORIGINAL DIAL AS IT WAS.

WHEN I WENT WATCH SHOPPING SUNDAY AND MONDAY WEARING THIS
BEAUTY, I HAD SO MANY QUESTIONS ASKED .. LIKE
"WHAT KIND OF WATCH IS THAT?" 

IT TRULY IS FANTASTIC. I HATE TO SELL HER, BUT, THEN AGAIN,
HOW ELSE CAN I FEED MY NEED TO RESTORE WATCHES
WITHOUT BUIYING NEW OLD ONES!

THIS HAS TO BE THE BEST VINTAGE DESIGN THAT WAS EVER MADE
AND THE BEST I HAVE DONE THUIS FAR... WELL.. UM... UH..

I THOUGHT THE 1960 INVICTA I RESTORED AND WROTE AN ESSAY ABOUT WAS THE BEST...

I THOUGHT THE 1968 BULOVA OCEANOGRAPHER WITH ORANGE MARKERS AND SILCVER DIAL WAS THE BEST I RESTORED...

I THOUGHT THE 1959 BUCHERER DIVE AUTOMATIC ETA WITH THE YELLOW ARROW BAND WAS THE BEST I ..

YOU GET IT...

A BIG STREAMLINED LOOK IS WHAT THIS WATCH IS ABOUT.

WITHOUT THE DIVE SUIT EXTENDER
BAND IS 7 1/2 TO 7 3/4

IF YOU REQUIRE A LARGER SIZE I CAN ADD A COOL
SPRINGED EXTENSION. THEY LOOK GREAT AND EXTEND
THE BAND TO 3/4 TO 1 1/4.

FOR A TOTAL OF   8 3/4

FURTHER, IF YOU WANT A LOGO, NAME PLATE
OR OTHER NEAT ATTACHMENT - I CAN ADD IT TO
THE EXTENSION LIKE I DID WITH THE MARINE CORP EMBLEM ON THE TAG

(GOLDSMITHWORKS.COM OR GOLDSMITHWATCHWORKS.COM )

SMOOTH & CLEAN. THE CROWN LOCKS
AND THE MOVEMENT IS BETTER THAN THE CASE!

WE PRESSURE TESTED THE WATCH AND IT HELD
BUT WE DO NOT WARRANTY WATER PROOFING
DUE TO MANY FACTORS.

FLYING SAUCER ANYONE? 

A WONDERFUL COMPLETED WORK OF ORIGINAL SEIKO ART
