Jaws is an awesome movie, especially the new HD version. It contains lots of underwater and dive references and some pretty great characters, especially the 'Matt Hooper' character played by Richard Dreyfuss. In the book he gets munched but on screen he makes it out alive.

As many of you may already know, the watch that Hooper wears in the movie was a 70's Alsta Superautomatic.

Due to a family emergency I'm letting a bunch of watches go.

Price is negotiable

This is my NY0125-83E, one of the retro styled day date Citizen line that is now discontinued.

Really classic look with the gold bezel and gilt hands. Love the ratcheting extension on the bracelet. I've hardly worn this.

The price includes airmail shipping to pretty well anywhere.

My blue Fujitsubo, with a teeny tiny mod and better regulation.

Super Titanium case and bracelet with ratcheting extension. 41mm case. 16,000 a/m magnetic resistant.

You should be able to see that I've filled the gap in the hour hand with C3X1 lume. I've also lubricated the gaskets and regulated the watch so that it is +- 2 seconds per day.

It was fun, but I haven't worn it in months so I'm moving it on.

I bought this on the 2nd of November last year from an AD and whilst I like it, I just can't bring myself to love it.

It has an internally domed sapphire crystal with great AR. It has the Marinemaster 5 piece bracelet with the ratcheting extension. I also have a Grand Seiko rubber strap which I've worn it on if you are interested.

I have worn it surfing a fair bit, but the Diashield coating is holding up well so there are only a few small hairline marks on the clasp.

The price includes...
