Step away from the WD-40

Isn't that the same case as the Nivada/Croton Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver Juicer Coffeemaker Mop'n'Waxer?

Maybe one of the new version of bezel will fit?

It is indeed, and you forgot that it also chops, dices, slices and will keep your laundry white.
These were used on a slew of other watches, just like the Helbros French diver cases with the scrolls on the back.

These case makers were like Neil Diamond- you know the songs by different artists, but they all came out of one factory.

I should look at the specs on the reissued Nivada’s and reach out to see if I could just buy a bezel or insert. Good suggestion.

Beautiful watch!

Needless to say- the previous owner probably tried to get this thing running by spraying half a can of WD40 into it...ugh.

Great project! Thanks for sharing. I do like the old bezel.

That’s a great looking watch. I like it as well in its original state. Can’t wait to see some more.
