... to view the different meanings of "budget" for each of our dear colleagues here at Purists!
Well, this is a true "budget watch" and a favorite of mine. It is a piece I wear from time to time when I wish to have a diver watch on my wrist, without suffering any risk while strolling certain not so safe streets in the city I live in.
The price I paid was as low as its true quality, but its looks is charming anyway, and I was compelled to buy it for these two reasons: looks and low price, almost a gift. I found it in a NOS state and couldnĀ“t resist to take it home.
I surely would not take it to any Scuba dive excursion (in spite of its rather pretentious vacum testing to 200 -inches, meters, feet??-) nor to a watch gathering, but somehow it makes me smile when I wear it on my wrist from time to time. One watch aficionado and good friend of mine, once told me when he saw it: "There are no ugly watches, my friend"!!
It was a big cumpliment coming from him, owner of many high end watches!
Here is my Waldman diver...
Have a Great week end all of you friends!!
Kind regards, Abel.
