Vintage Breitling Colt Diver A57035

Although Breitling is well known for their pilot's watches, they offer a selection of impressive yet simple dive watches.  I was fortunate enough to come across the following vintage (1995-2001) Breitling Colt Quartz Dive watch on eBay for a great price (retailed $1800-2200).  It hosts a smaller 38mm bead blasted stainless steel screw back case, signed screw down crown, non-reflective sapphire crystal, and unidirectional rotating bezel.  The dial is black with bright fluorescent numerals and a quick set date at 3 o'clock.  This watch is water resistant up to 1000 feet.  The watch movement is the more affordable Breitling 64 caliber ETA 955.612 with date complication.  This watch has a comfortable fit and it is a great everyday time piece.
