A descent little Enicar automatic dress watch, head only, $75 shipped in the CONUS. The watch is running reasonably well at +30 spd. It could be regulated, but would benefit from a service. I have taken many pictures to highlight any flaws. The chrome case is in good condition. The steal back has an inscription and some marks from a botched attempt to open it.

But would you LIKE another watch? Slightly different to anything you currently have 😀

Looks like a bargain. 34mm diameter?

On my cheap standard only calipers it measures a hair over 1 5/16" which puts it at about 34mm. I am comfortable saying it is between 33.5 and 34.5 mm. The lug width is 18mm.

Also, in case anyone asks the green under my thumbnail is from painting my daughters desk chair and not the watch.

You can tell that W.S.B., the sheet metal worker, was proud of his retirement watch, and didn't wear it much. 👍

This really is great. It checks a lot of the vintage boxes.

The Enicar logo is worth $75 by itself.

The logo is super cool, and I love the fact that Enicar is the company's founder's last name Ariste Racine spelled backwards.

I know somebody has a New Year's resolution to buy more watches, right?

Happy New Year everyone!

I have a dial. I need a movement that fits. None of the AS movements align with the dial feet. I love this dial. Case however is a bit small for it.
