I was playing a show in Winter Haven last night and couldn't help but spot this awesome vintage Seiko dive watch. The gentlemen wearing it has seen the band and I perform dozens of times over the last 4 years playing around Central Florida. I asked if I could take a picture of his awesome watch, which he bought new in 1970, and wears not only daily...but wears it during EVERY dive he has ever been on. He is a renowned cave and natural spring diver. He is also an underwater photographer and one heck of a dood to boot. He told me he isn't a huge watch guy, but obviously needs one for his work. He told me that someone brought in a dive watch into his dive shop that was "oil filled...the guy tried to change the battery himself and whooosh"...he brought it in enclosed in a ziplock bag...with some of the oil..haha. Runs consistently one minute fast everyday.
