'OCEANOGRAPHER'

Well....at minimum probably not Set-O-Matic

Possible Oceanographer, DB has examples with red seconds hand.

After many years, I'm starting to think that Set-O-Matic is a function and not a model name.

Here's an Oceanographer also stamped Set-O-Matic on the dial.

There are also a number of other models with this function.

....and don't forget this one....We had some 'spirited' discussion on this subject oh, so long ago. Anybody find anything in the Line Books?

Hello everyone! Thanks for the info. So let's assume that "set-o-matic" is a function and not a model name. This Bulova will then became an "Oceanographer".

Not necessarily an Oceanographer, as they typically had that printed on the dial. The 666ft is interesting and something that should help determine the model.

OK! We will then wait for some information to appear to give the correct name to this Bulova model.

I am always grateful for your efforts.
