I also found that this version was only marketed to a depth of 3000ft, not 1000m (big difference as 3000ft is a little less than 100m) and I found two other example spanning about 10 years, in which very respected dealers labeled it as 1000m but the earliest version is not. I've been able to legitimize this variations and they appear much earlier in date than than most examples. That was a big hurdle to overcome because everything else said this is an original dial, which we learned now, it is. For example, the one in which I procured is a model 103 with no "automatic" or "1000m" text on the dial, which almost all have. I've learned that several models of significant difference exists. To begin with, in my research, I've learned there are several variations of this watch and I do not think it is well documented as to the age of these models. Part of procuring a watch as rare as this can mean hours of research may be needed to prevent a bad purchase that cannot be sold and also have pieces available that many other dealers don't have or are sold out and consumers want. Some collectors may be wondering what I mean exactly. ![]() I recently procured a very rare model of the Pacman. ![]()
