Searambler.... what a great name!
Thanks for sharing these nuggets with us.
Doxa Sub 300 Silverlung Original and Doxa Sub 300 Searambler Reissue.
Doxa the venerable dive watch company famous for it association with Jacque Cousteau and the Aqual Lung 50 years after the original Searambler was introduced in 1967 give us the reissue. This is the third installment in the Doxa 300 (no T) reissues. What ...

I guess you would have to say the help in popularity but the are so close that the rarity is only appreciated by true collectors. In any case there is no real financial pressure driving demand as the prices remain conservative.
I agree with you Bill..
Doxa watches are a part of diving history and prices don’t really reflect this. The reissues a least keep the Doxa name alive.
Your Doxa connection is second to none, Bill!

Your doxa collection looks very complete. I agree the next one will be the Sharkhunter with the aqualung in yellow like the searambler.
It is hard to pick a favorite among the re edition set but the Searambler has a nice appeal together with the Professional with the Aqualung. I did pick up the same Seiko you most recently acquired. A lot of fun. Best Bill ...
Thank you Bill! It´s a big compliment coming from a great Doxa collector like you! May be some day I am able to get a vintage one...
... to add more charm to my present collection. My favorite has always been the orange dial/aqua lung version as it represents what I recall from my youth. I feel is the more classic of all models. But then, when I received the Searambler I fell in love w...

I rather enjoy these dive watches and bumped into another Doxa fan/collector down here at a local Collector event, he had several modem re-issues as well as an old one. A few pics, I love the yellow dialed one! I’m afraid I didn’t snap the original one! A...
