Who says toys are just for kids? 

We think that the spirit that moves collectors to emotional fascination with watches and timekeeping is the same that sees children falling in love with games. Which is why we’ve stocked our digital shelves with collector-grade toys and games perfect for kids of all ages! From board games to models and more, we’ve sourced some of the coolest vintage playthings we could find. Give the adult in you a rest for a little while, and get back to being a kid for a bit! 

This sweet little vintage find is a battery-operated motorized submarine bath toy made by Horsman. Its two tone gray-blue exterior features chrome topside accents, an on/off knob disguised as a missile launcher, adjustable diving fins that allow this sub to do what it’s meant to do … dive! Bath toys such as this were common five and dime finds in the 1970s, 80s, and into the 90s, but have largely disappeared today. Our founder was gifted this exact toy by his grandfather in the late 1980s, and he now has a compulsive tendency to scoop them up whenever they come up - which isn't often!

Measuring approximately 12 1/2” x 2” x 5”, this example is in new old stock condition, never removed from its original packaging. Whether kept as a vintage collectable or pried out of its packaging, fitted with a pair of AAs and immediately used in the swimming pool, this great vintage toy Sub is sure to bring the smiles!
