    Hello,

    This is a bit of a catch and release for me. I was shopping for a vintage Sea Wolf and ended up buying both the black and white dial versions of this watch. While it took me almost three months of searching to find one this pristine, I find that it is too similar to another piece in my collection and am thus putting it up for sale.

    Basics:
    - White/Silver dial with a light greyish blue bezel
    - 36mm without crown
    - Period correct nylon strap

    Pros:
    - Everything but the strap and crown is original (including the crystal)
    - I have been able to source a NOS correct crown that will be included
    - On my wrist the watch is very accurate - about 10 seconds per day
    - The date turns over with a precise click between 11:45 - 12:15
    - The bakelite bezel is beautiful and in fantastic condition. Bezels on these are usually faded, discolored or cracked. Turns and clicks easily
    - Sharp dauphine hands and markers with lume intact
    - Very clean dial
    - Sharp, unpolished stainless steel case

    Cons:
    - Winding stem is a bit stiff to wind the watch but winds. Starts right up when it's picked up
    - The original crystal has some surface scratches but nothing Polywatch can't handle

    And now for some pictures:

    Watch and I are in the US and I can ship worldwide (with some exceptions). No returns please.

    I'm asking $725USD OBRO insured and shipped to CONUS. Other countries add shipping cost. Payment by bank transfer or PayPal (friends and family).

    References available.

    Thanks!
