Reardon turned to James Lamdin, the founder of Analog:Shift, who he'd known for over a decade and who recently reopened an expanded boutique in New York, to team up for the exhibition.
Looking closely at the clipboard to the side of the technician, there is an Aquastar 63 on top of the paperwork. The telltale skindiver case shape, coupled with the distinct hands and inner-rotating bezel, make it quite recognizable.

But, do yourself a favor, and allow yourself a brief diversion amidst all the unrest. We've got a great selection of watches to take your mind off it all this week, including an early Autavia from Heuer, and a two-register Breitling in top condition. For the dive watch aficionados, this is a roundup you won't want to miss, with a perfect Scafograf 300, a colorful Mido Powerwind, and the nicest Submariner you'll see in a good long while.The Swatch Group responded to "the exceptional market situation" by closing 260 stores, resulting in the layoff of nearly 2,000 employees outside of Switzerland, 6.5% of its workforce. It said it cut costs in purchasing, production, marketing, and rents, but not R&D and training.I remember handling each one of these watches when we photographed them for this very story and thinking to myself, "I could just collect double-signed pilots watches only and be very happy with the hobby."
