I think it`s high time we all discussed the best watch in film history owned by one Colonel John Matrix. Bleep, Bleep, Bleep

This was on a forum discussing the very watch was the first dual display dive watch. Arnold Schwarzenegger wore one in I believe commando and predator. It is also seen on his wrist in many photos of him in ads, etc. in 80's and early 90's muscle and fitness mags, etc. the h601, seems to be its clone regarding case, shroud, etc. I had one of each for a quite detailed comparison. the h601 is official a "sports150" and not a diver, although many have used it for such. the h601 has a 24 hour vs the depth meter scale on the h558 dial. the movement is of course different using the differing display location h601 vs. h558. the h558 was set using the crown. the h601 pretty much used the pushers. functions were similar h558- stop watch day/date digital time zone second digital time zone back light hour chime alarm the h601 was same except no second digital time zone

And the way it suddenly stop`s and start`s bleeping at it`s own decision.

I thinks its funny, sometimes he looks at his watch and it shows a digtial face, then when you see it on his wrist it has a clock face. The watch changes throughout the film, have a look next time.
