Beuchat 1000M: a 23 years old french warrior

Post by Gatt » Tue Mar 18, 2014 1:01 am

Beuchat 1000M Marine Nationale 1994, just back from service. These ETA 2824 (this one hacking) powered divers watches can be serviced almost everywhere.

New gaskets, waterproof tested, ready to dive again:

Love the case. Nice.

Is this the dial that "inspired" H2O?

I never realized that that h2o dial was inspired by a vintage diver's dial
