Let's see you inner Enicar!

[dougiedude]

A few months ago, I became enamored with this brand with an interesting history, and some beautiful vintage watches. I'm a 'rookie' when it comes to this brand, and I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to see what other Ω-F members have...

Here's the group shot of mine:

I love the brand as well!

I don't own a single one, but the night is young. 😜

I took my 100 Fathom to the watchmaker today to open her up, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it's a very early one: September of 1955 👍, same month as the first known advertisement for these (according to a self-proclaimed expert on eBay):

My SeaPearl 600, with a more patinated, similar dial, is from December 1957:



This one has a much cleaner (and prettier!) movement, but they both are due a service!

Those are beautiful 🥰...

@calalum :
I don't believe the later Sherpas had the engraved month of production on the inner case-back, but might either of yours have that?

 

[calalum]

Not sure. Would need to get to the bank and pull them out for a look.

One lonely Enicar resides here. Came from Belgium. A good serviceable watch that is comfortable to wear on this shark strap. Ought to wear it more often.

I only have one (big though) but there are a lot of Enicars I would like to have...

Quick question: What's the difference between the dice and the divette?

It's subtle, I know, but clear when you see them side by side. 👍

It's a miserable day in Dundee, so I thought I'd cheer myself up by taking a couple of photos for this thread.

My Sherpa Super Dive

My Enicar Sherpa Super Dive says hello. Suspect mine still has its original crystal on it which has become quite spiderwebbed over time . . . i personally think it is beautiful. Love the angular lugs too. In it's beat up state, it's still easily one of the favourite watches I own.
