Listen Later

Welcome to another episode of Fratello On Air. This week, we discuss our favorite divers from the '60s, '70s, and '80s. We also offer more affordable alternatives. Enjoy this lengthy episode! For our listeners, the watch content begins after 27 minutes.

We're receiving some great show ideas from our listeners. For example, today's show on our favorite divers from the '60s, '70s, and '80s came from our chat group. We aim to please with this discussion, and it's one of our longest recordings yet!

Handgelenkskontrolle

We kick off our show with a lengthy chat about TV shows. The Penguin, Bad Sisters, and Silo are some of the titles we discuss. For the Handgelenkskontrolle, we're both wearing some of our favorite divers. Balazs kicks it off with his Doxa Sub 300T Sharkhunter, a big dive watch from the late '60s. Mike is wearing his early '70s Rolex 1680 Red Submariner.

Our favorite divers

We head to the main topic and mention a watch from each decade along with an affordable alternative. Two top picks per decade isn't a lot, so we expect differing views in the comments section. During the episode, we discuss the following:

'60s:

  • Doxa Sub 300
  • Seiko 6159-7000 / 7001
  • Skin Divers
  • Aquastar 63

'70s:

  • Rolex Submariner 5512 / 5513
  • Omega Seamaster 166.068 "Banana" and 166.091"Pilot Case"
  • Lucerne / Caravelle / Other Skin Divers
  • Citizen Crystron 4-730453 Y 150M Diver

'80s:

  • CWC Royal Navy Quartz
  • TAG Heuer Super Professional
  • Citizen 51-2273 150M Diver
  • Zodiac Super Sea Wolf 506.54.44 "Sawtooth" (yes, this is technically from the '90s)

We hope you enjoy today's episode. If you have ideas for future episodes, please feel free to let us know.
