Look what I got
This came to me in the mail today, a 1970s Timex red ball diver. I've been wanting one of these for a while now and happy I was able to finally snag one at a decent price.
It even has a bit of lume left in it.
Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

Sweet! 
Amazing that it still has a bit of lume remaining. I have a bit of a soft spot for vintage Timex divers like this.

A Timex was my first watch in 1970. Warm associations with the brand. Likewise, amazed to see some lume left. Nice find.
Too many watches, not enough wrists.

Excellent Me like 
To find one with a bezel that isn't either beat to hell or just plain worn out is quite something 
..... That pretty much applies to all Timex 'oldies'; even more so for the ones with the nylon/plastic bezels.
Some people have opinions - The rest of us have taste.
