The Technos Sky Diver has always been in the I need one of those catagories as it has the look of the classic Divers of the 60s with it's own unique charm, including a full stainless steel waterproof case design, and that rotating aluminium bezel, it has some serious wrist presence.

The fatter luminous applied dial across that glossy surface also looks superb, and in this case in excellent condition, with later tritium designated design. The screwdown "Big Crown" also harks back to the earlier Rolex Subs of the era.

The dial has "500m" depth with the Skydiver script and a seriously cool segment hand design.

This example is extremely well preserved for one of these, with a nice even patina throughout, and a sharp case with bezel in good shape with that tritium dot at 12.

It features its original T logo crown.
