The Wittnauer Professional Chronograph 246T aka the "Scuba Roullete" is the definition of 70s golden era dive watches. The funky chronograph, intended for underwater use, features a high contrast racing style dial configuration that is unique to dive watches of this time. The "roulette" portion of the nickname comes from the odd bezel format, made from bakelite, that has a close resemblance to roulette tables used for gambling. The bezel is actually intended for being able to time split second intervals. Encased in an oversized tonneau style case, brick link bracelet and a Valjoux 72 chronograph movement, there's no question that this watch will be a standout in the collection. This "Scuba Roullete" in specific, has a black dial with some browning , contrasting beautifully with the yellow markers and hands. One would think that this dial and bezel combination would come across as "busy", but this watch actually has a very subtle wrist appearance and wears smaller than its measured size. Making the "Scuba Roulette" a perfect watch as a daily wearer.
