[[left page]] Until now, the typical super-rugged watch had a face that would stop a clock. Our new Oceanographer is strong on looks. Yet they don't come any tougher. To name just a few of its strongpoints: It has an armored crystal, which is a lot brawnier than ordinary crystals. It's tested to withstand water pressure as far down as 333 feet. And inside, the famous Bulova movement. With every part precision fitted to every other part. Which is why the Oceanographer isn't just super waterproof*. It's super dustproof and resistant to heat, cold and shock as well. So if you're in the market for a super-rugged watch, you can't do better than an Oceanographer. Despite its good looks. The Bulova Oceanographer. [[B logo]] Not just another pretty face. *When case, crown and crystal are intact. [[image of watch]] Oceanographer "H" 17 jewels. $85.00.
