Title: Cool "Super Waterproof" Chronographe Suisse Diver

Description: VERYGOOD condition. Signed Progress on the original black and silver dial this divers chronograph says super waterproof, all stainless steel, 100 meters tested and Swiss made on the slotted screw on back. Check out the little fish and diver also. Wayne our watchmaker has checked it over but I lost the little paper he makes for me and the back is pretty tight. I might get him to check it out again later but I bet this has a Landeron movement. Landeron made movements for a lot of Swiss makers, even some great companies like Breitling. Wayne has also glued the timing bezel in place as it was a bit too lose for my taste and this fix will keep it from getting sloppy or falling off. It is firmly attached but just won't rotate like originally designed. Tritium lumed dial is in great shape but the quality is only decent, not top end like Omega or Breitling. This is a 30 minute chronograph with normal seconds at nine. Big, sturdy, all steel, waterproof in its time, and a chrono! No screw down crown and i wouldn't swim in it myself to be honest but some vintage divers chronograph watches can be well over a thousand bucks these days. They are popular and combine genres. A brand new Hadley Roma carbon fiber strap with a big steel buckle is attached. Runs great and is keeping good time.  Measures 40 mm wide (not including the crown) x 47 mm long x 12.5 mm thick. {$325} Item #5890
