I missed my B-42 Marinemaster so much I had to get another one. I got a rare opportunity to buy a pristine Rolex Oysterquartz in the exact configuration I wanted. I also did not have the cash to float this purchase at the time. I ended up selling a couple of my nicer pieces and some odds and ends to fund this "Grail". My B-42 was one of those pieces. I really missed that one and kept seeing that face on other peoples posts. I put it back on my want list and was recently able to purchase another one at the same price I sold it for. I still love it. I am posting some pics of the one I sold as I have not had time to shoot the new one. Besides, It is exactly the same!!!

The Marinemaster is a fantasic watch that really does what it says on the tin. An honest no bull.... watch and looks great on top. Congratulations.

I really like the B-42 Marinemaster and I plan to add one to the collection by the end of this year.

If I could make a change or two, it would be to get rid of the large 1,2,4,5,etc. numbers and possibly lose the 5, 10, 15, 20, etc. numbers as well. Then let the square minute markers move up to take their place and the dial would be a lot cleaner.

I'm all about ease of legibility and straight forward dials, since I use my watches underwater quite often.
