Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney just popped into my head with "Ebony and Ivory", and now you'll be singing it.

Kind of like the MIRO version, but these watches have it all.

Yes, the Ebony & Ivory tune....Paul McCartney & Stevie Wonder

did that one up pretty well.

Good ol' Michael more than likely had a duet along with Paul too, but I can remember that one, so I've missed alot of music at times.

Congrats to the winner, but I went for photo #2.

Now, if the name would have been shown on the Piano, and showed to be Yamaha I would have picked number one, but I liked #2 this time.

Congrats to all,
Jimmy

thanks for correcting me, Poseidon

Looked at Zodiac Seadragon, chrono, they had 2 and the price was $280 I see they're much cheaper online

and if you could find one at a Company store such as where Rene~ finds some decent deals on various Zodiacs, then you can really score a sweet price sometimes.

Not that I was trying to correct you at all, as that wasn't the intent. Just that I recalled the tune with Paul & Stevie, and for all I know Michael may have also did the tune with Paul.

Nice watch there and from what I have seen and heard of them, it's alot of quality and features for the buck, so the word value comes to mind when I see a great sale price on these Zodiacs.

Cheers mate,
Jimmy

I ain't perfect and ain't always right, so go ahead and correct me, no worries Poseidon

Did a quick run around today and spotted this one for 225 at Winners the stealth Zodiac was sold. It was on a military strap with orange indices but otherwise I believe, the same watch

alittle fond of these types of chronos after seeing you guys post on them as you have.

I've never actually had or wore a watch other than a divers watch for the most part, so you can see the brain-washing that was instilled into me at the early age of 17. Since then, from about 1979 onwards till today some 31 years later I still am a dive watch guy and Seiko filling up about 99% of all watches Ive ever owned.

Those being the 6306-7000 and 7001 series, the 6309-7040 and 7049 series as well as the 6309-729X series slim taper, then into the full 7548-700X slim tapered quartz divers series & onward into the 7002-700X diver series, and then into the 7C46 Tuna series divers with a 7549 vintage quartz tuna here & there for good measure, and now having my first 7S26 series diver in the SKX-011K model being one of the rarer earlier 7S26A varieties to obtain.

As you can see, I have had the full mother load of Seiko divers and have studied them in depth as well and what interchangeable parts are doable and the minute hardly noticeable case-configuration differences between like family model numbers such as the 6306 twins, less the rarer 6159 300m Professional hi-beat divers which I couldnt afford to obtain as they usually always bring $2500.00 plus.

~I'm looking for a change I guess anyhow, and maybe a change of brand since that seems to be what the trolls would prefer me to do anyways, to leave there little tight click of close knit mind-controlled Zombie hit squads they have going on. They feel I'm a threat to there so called higher order of class I think, which isn't really a higher order at all but to them it's there circle of friends where they feel invincable and proud.

Thanks Rick, and hey no correction ever is without thanks in the end for putting those things right.

Go with what tickles your fancy, get what you like and what appeals to you and not what others want or are doing in there own WISdom!
In the end, it's what you feel and desire in a watch that counts and has the meaning anyways!

Cheers,
Jimmy
