The BULOVA Oceanographer "Special" with 10K gold bezel was manufactured at a limited number.

In the 1970s, BULOVA's Oceanographer was their answer to ZODIAC's Sea Wolf. Oceanographers have become highly sought after for their rarity, as well as their aesthetic & investment value.

The 10K GOLD bezel on this Oceanographer brings it up another notch on the rarity index!
