Re: 12 FEB TGIF WRUW
All I have left after the big watch purge the past year. There is something liberating (and also quite boring) about selling off everything and keeping one watch. I can wear this one daily and beat the crap out of out as resale value is terrible for these Hydronauts.
Re: 12 FEB TGIF WRUW
I love hydronauts. They've gone up in value recently. Is that the 36mm version as the 6 and 9 plots are not triangular, or one of the last with out the silly TIGER name?Mr_Pacman wrote: ↑Fri Feb 12, 2021 2:11 pmAll I have left after the big watch purge the past year.

It's the 40mm version, model 89190. I suspect it's one of the last ones they were making as the warranty papers are stamped 2010 from a dealer in Italy. Most of the other ones I've owned were from the early 2000's.smellody wrote: ↑Fri Feb 12, 2021 4:54 pmI love hydronauts. They've gone up in value recently.

I believe the triangle 6 and 9 plots came on the earlier models with the round hour markers (with many of them being branded "Tiger") in North America.
I wish this one was on a bracelet but it came on the factory rubber strap/deployant/endlink combo. The revemoveable endlinks are nice as it closes up the gap between the strap and the case. Finding straps that fit under the endlinks limits you to 5mm and below straps at the ends.
