Early diver... Enicar Seapearl 600, ca. 1957-58... from the days when men were men and rotatable bezels were for sissies. 😀

It definitely has some wrist presence, but it is small. I measure it at 34.6 mm in diameter, 42.3 mm lug-to-lug, 10.9 mm thick. Believe it or not, this seems to have been one of the reasons the guys in the US Navy Experimental Diving Unit liked it when they tested it back in '58... visible, waterproof and out of the way. Lack of rotatable bezel was the big knock. Full post to follow when my research is complete. 😀
