This square cased dive watch is large on the wrist compared to other Timex divers of this era. I’ve classified this as a Marlin due to this. The bezel for these models is a different size to other models and is larger than the Sprite, but smaller than a standard Marlin. As a result collectors should opt for a complete watch or run the risk of having an incomplete one for a very long time.
