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 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?
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.

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 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.
