Here’s an interesting one!

Post by demer03 » Thu May 13, 2021 3:24 am

When Doxa transitioned to the Synchron Group in the early 70’s, one of the larger companies that was a part of that purchase was Cyma. For a very very short run, Doxa produced Cyma Sharkhunters and Professionals.

My friend in Cypress just let me grab this one from his collection:

I’ve actually only ever seen an orange pro and orange sharkhunter, but never an actual black sharky. Looking forward to getting this.

Wow. Awesome find mike!

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And If I have trouble the warranty said
Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On

It is definitely in better condition than it looked in the pics. It was a good buy for a rare one.
