Week Under Water — Project Glaucus (1965)

[Tusker]

Came across this one on YouTube the other week — absolutely fascinating what 19-year-old Colin Irwin cooked up. It sounds like a miserable week, but certainly an adventure. Looks like a Heinke Merlin (Mistral?) here, likely purchased from Lilywhites along with the Healthways single-hose you see in photos from the project. And — for Ty and those interested — it looks like Irwin is wearing a Vulcain Nautical Cricket, a very serious watch for a teenager in 1965.

I think that’s accurate that he’s wearing a Cricket Nautical as I can’t think of what else it could be with the big crowns at 3 and 4, and the small crown at 2.
