Currently on our Australian eBay in the Rolex section is a new Ollech & Wajs Divers watch.
It is the M6 model with an auto ETA 2824-2 movement.The watch is stainless and Swiss made and looks similar to a No Date Sub.
It is brand new and at present around $225.00 USD.
Has anyone heard of them?
Cheers Aaron

Has anyone heard of them? Cheers Aaron Yep - they're a fairly well established firm, and known for making a good quality watch. They seem to get lost in the sea of Rolex "homage" watches out there, but those that own them say good things. Best, John |

Perth is a great place.But Brisbane in Queensland is the place to be.
Great beaches(Surfers Paradise about 1/2 hour drive south).
Very relaxed lifestyle and quite affordable.
If you or John are over this way pop in for BBQ and beer.Your always welcolme.
Cheers Aaron

I saw a special one time on the number of deaths in Australia (in the urban areas mind you...) from spider bites and suddenly Australia fell a few notches on my "Places to Visit" list....I HATE spiders!

Spiders don't cause too many problems as the snakes and crocadiles eat them. ;D ;D ;D

Thanks Jack.They do look like a quality watch and being ex military from a long time ago it is probably why I like the look of them. Cheers Aaron |

Hey Mike, I actually did 13 years in the Australian Army.You know the Special Forces like our Special Air Sevice well nothing like that.More like Sgt Bilko in the supply section. No seriously I did an apprenticeship as a vehicle mechanic and got to see most of Australia.Never got to go overseas. Cheers Aaron |

They look robust enough but I'm not a fan of the red on the dial.

I forgot,I did get to go on the USS Missourie for an escorted tour.The amount of personel was staggering and the sizeof the thing.Nearly more people than what we had in our Navy at the time.
Please excuse my spelling of the mighty Mo.
