    Big yellow Vintage Diver

    New on my wrist - Certina DS-3 Super PH1000M
    For me is the Certina a "Grail" and a must have piece in my Vintage Diver Collection.
    Some shoots


    On Eddies Nato


    Very thick - 18mm




    Nice and original condition - some scratches on the crystal - as usual for a Toolwatch


    With the small brother DS - 2 PH200M


    70's spirit - bright colours for the winter
    The DS-2 is not a Grail (for me) but nice to have. :D


    3 old beaters


    The movement (919-1) runs perfect


    First snow in the "Bavarian Alps"





    I hope you like my yellow UFO....!?

    Cheers!

    Always liked Vintage divers.....your Certina looks in great condition, the rest ain't bad either.

    Regards,

    I am very fond of those chunky Certinas. I had the DS3 1888 re-issue. A wonderful watch.

    Thanks mates!

    @Rasputin10:
    Yes, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms "BUND"......... :lol:
    Sorry this watch is not for sale.
    I've bought this ultra rare Diver from the first owner.
    The guy was a militär diver (Bundeswehr) from 1975 to 1983.

    But here some pictures for you

    You've got a real beauty there. And that FF Bund!

    As you can see I have a bit of a soft spot for the DS too...

    The Certinas are certainly nice and I have always been a fan of both the vintage and modern versions, but that BP :shock:
