RARE 1996 SEIKO DIVER 7002-7000 WithBLK DIAL ALL ORIG. With2 BANDS. MINT

Posted on October 24, 2019 by admin

DON’T MISS THIS ONE -ALL ORIGINAL/2 BANDS AND MINT CONDITION. THE WATCH IS IN ALL ORIGINAL CONDITION. IT WAS MANUFACTURED IN OCT. Original , all stainless steel case is in super condition with no dings or dents. Size is 42MM without crown, lug to lug 44MM. Original Crystal in great shape. Dial – Excellent condition black, with no stain or fade. Hands and markers are excellent as well. There is still lume on the hands and markers. AUTOMATIC SEIKO JAPAN MOVEMENT CALIBER 7002. Bezel, with silver numerals, rotates bi-directional smoothly.. Crown an original screw in locking water- resistant type. Many of the 7002 series divers come with a Z22 rubber band or the more expensive stainless steel. Double locking deployment style band. Generic & solid high quality stainless steel deployment band and the original Seiko Z22 rubber divers band. The steel band comes with quick release pins , so you can switch bands easily. Service history is unknown but in wearing the watch over a 24 hour period, it has been keeping excellent time. It has been not water tested. It may be water-resistant, but it is recommended if you are going to use this for diving or swimming, that it should be professionally re-pressurized. It is a terrific value for a classic automatic diving watch. It will continue for years to come, to be an accurate and handsome, functional timepiece. BECAUSE IT IS A VINTAGE AUTOMATIC WATCH, THERE IS GOING TO BE DIMINISHED RESERVE POWER(HOW LONG IT RUNS WHEN IT IS TAKEN OFF THE WRIST) THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH MOSTLY ALL VINTAGE AUTOMATICS.. MANY NEW ONES CAN GET UP TO 40HRS RUNNING OFF THE WRIST. DO NOT EXPECT MORE THEN 10-16 HRS RUNNING WHEN OFF. Please remember these are NOT new automatic watches even though they may have been serviced, you will have to gently shake the watch in a clockwise or counter clockwise movement to get the rotor working properly. This is especially true when the watch has not been worn for some time. Reserve power has to build up to keep the watch running when not worn.. Its value will only increase, as these classic and iconic timepieces disappear form the marketplace. This model in particular, is even more valuable and collectible. Bit of it’s model history:The Seiko 7002 series of diving watches is the fourth generation of Seikos (normally aspired) professional/recreational ISO-rated automatic diving watches (this does not include Seikos deep diving shrouded divers or Seikos intro level ISO-rated quartz divers). The 7002 line of divers replaced the 6309 in 1988 and ran until 1996. It was replaced by the SKX line of divers in 1996. The 7002s use an entirely different movement from prior 6000 series based models used in earlier divers. The 7002s introduced many design changes to Seiko divers that are with us to this day. Now seen as true specialists in the diving watch market, Seiko have made a name for themselves in the sports market, with the classic 7002 the piece of choice for many. With its sturdy and robust makeup, luminous design style and functional bezel, the 7002 maintains its dominance nearly 30 years after its first release. Most coming from overseas. Beware, as many are junk and have parts pieced together from many different watches. Not easy to return these junk timepieces. At least I know where my watches come from and what’s inside them. Overview and additional specs. It uses a 7002 caliber self-winding mechanical movement that cannot be manually wound or hacked (the second hand does not stop when the crown is pulled out). It ticks 6 times per second which gives the second hand a smoother movement than quartz watches which tick once per second. The watch should run for up to 40 hours when fully wound and will self-wind when moved. There are two model numbers for this watch which indicate different distribution locations, a different band type, or different text on the dial. They are identical in specs. This should be sufficient for splashes, rain, baths, showers & swimming (shallow diving) but is not recommended for scuba diving. The crown screws down to help prevent it from being accidentally pulled out while under water. The stainless steel bezel shows minute numbering and can be rotated. The gap between the lugs is 22mm and the rubber band can be removed using a band removal tool. To be replaced with another band. Date window to show the day of the month. Check your watch manual for details. (baths & shallow diving). Inner Bezel / Chapter Ring / Outer Dial. I always try to deal with my customers professionally, and ask that they extend me the same courtesy. Thank you, Roger — ber11566. The item “RARE 1996 SEIKO DIVER 7002-7000 WithBLK DIAL ALL ORIG.

Vintage Wittnauer Geneve Diver withMint Dial, Orange Patina, All SS Case, Runs Strong

Posted on September 20, 2019 by admin

This Wittnauer Geneve 4000 has a matte black “T SWISS T” signed dial that is in pristine condition, free of any scratching, tool marks, chipping or defects. The original lume, which remains fully intact and no longer emits a glow after being exposed to bright light, has aged gracefully to an orange hue. The original stainless steel bezel, which does not rotate likely due to gunk buildup underneath , looks good. The all stainless steel case shows wear with no visible signs of oxidation. The outside of the case back is stamped “STAINLESS STEEL” with “WITTNAUER WATCH CO INC, “”SWISS” and “C 11 KS – 1 4000″ stamped on the inside of the case back. The crystal should be replaced. The 17 jewels unadjusted Swiss WITTNAUER WATCH Co. The quickset date function works flawlessly by repeatedly pressing firmly in on the crown until the desired date has been reached. An alternate quickset date function can be utilized by manually rolling over a new date and then repeatedly moving the hour hand between the 20 and 24 hour marks until the desired date has been reached. After recently winding the sharply threaded, non-screwdown replacement crown 38 full revolutions (impressive for a manual wind) the movement had a solid power reserve of approximately 42 hours. The crown winds smoothly. Given that this watch is more than 45 years and considering that the movement shows no clear signs of ever having been serviced (there are no visible watchmaker service markings on the inside of the case back) a complete overhaul is recommended. This watch measures approximately 37 mm excluding the crown, approximately 41 mm including the crown and approximately 19.5 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 8 mm. Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 10 mm. While the movement runs strong and keeps accurate time, given that the movement shows no signs of ever having been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended to keep it running strong. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time. Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility. And please study the 12 high magnification pictures carefully as they are part of the description and serve as an accurate representation of the condition of this watch.

Vintage PAT Sous Marine 20 ATM Diver withMint Dial, Patina, All SS Case, Runs Strong

Posted on September 15, 2019 by admin

While the movement runs strong and keeps accurate time and the roulette (black even, red odd) date wheel rolls over when the quickset function is used, the date wheel will not roll over automatically on its own. Given this and considering that the movement has likely never been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended. This seldom seen vintage PAT diver has a matte black “EBAUCHE SUISSE” signed dial that is in pristine condition, free of any scratching, tool marks, chipping or defects. The original lume, which remains fully intact and emits a quick-burst glow after being exposed to bright light, has aged to a perfectly matching warm buttermilk hue. The bezel, which does not rotate likely due to gunk buildup underneath, looks good. The all stainless steel case is in excellent condition showing minor wear and no signs of oxidation. The outer edge of the case back is stamped “ALL STAINLESS STEEL 100% WATERPROOF TESTED 20 ATM ANTIMAGNETIC” with “21631” stamped in the center. The crystal shows scratching. While I normally show pictures of the movements of watches that I put up for sale, the case back on this one is torqued to what feels like factory specs and is too tight for me to remove. A skilled watchmaker will have no issues removing it. The automatic movement with quickset date function runs strong and keeps accurate time but the date wheel does not automatically roll over on its own as it should. However, the quickset date function works flawlessly by pulling out the sharply threaded, non-screwdown crown to the first position and then turning it clockwise until the desired date has been reached. After recently winding the crown 39 full revolutions the movement had an impressive power reserve of approximately 41 hours. The crown winds beautifully. Given that the date wheel does not roll over on its own and considering that the movement has likely never been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended. This watch measures approximately 37 mm excluding the crown, approximately 40 mm including the crown and approximately 19 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 8.5 mm. Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 11 mm. Although the movement runs strong and keeps accurate time, given that the date wheel does not roll over on its own and considering that the movement has likely never been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time.

Vintage Vantage Diver withMint Dial, Patina, Countdown Bezel, All SS Case FOR REPAIR

Posted on September 1, 2019 by admin

FOR REPAIR – The time can be set and the movement will sometimes but not always start to run after the watch has been gently shaken and spun face down on a soft, flat surface (odd for this to happen with a manual wind). When the movement does fire up I’ve observed that it will keep accurate time for several minutes at a time. However, because the crown/stem doesn’t engage the movement when being wound the movement won’t stay running for any extended period of time and often times doesn’t fire up at all despite the attempts to get it going. Given this and considering that the movement shows no signs of ever having been serviced a complete overhaul is required. This vintage 1960’s Vantage diver has a glossy black dial that appears to be in pristine condition, free of any scratching, tool marks, chipping or defects. The original lume on the dial and hands, which emits a quick-burst glow on the dial only after being exposed to bright light, has aged beautifully. The black countdown bezel, which rotates bidirectionally a bit stiffly , shows wear with a deep amber colored lume pip that complements the dial and patina nicely. The all stainless steel lugholes case is in wonderful condition showing light wear and no obvious signs of oxidation. The outer edge of the case back is stamped “ANTIMAGNETIC ALL STAINLESS STEEL SHOCKRESISTANT” with “100% WATERPROOF AND CONDENSATION PROOF TESTED TO A DEPTH OF 600 FEET” stamped along the inner edge and “232900” and “TK” stamped in the center. The inside of the case back is stamped CASE MADE IN FRANCE. The crystal shows scratching and dust/debris on its underbelly. The 17 jewels manual wind movement is clean and will sometimes fire up after being gently shaken and then spun face down on a soft, flat surface (which is odd that this would happen with a manual wind). However, because the crown/stem does not engage the movement when being wound the movement won’t stay running for any extended period of time and often times won’t fire up at all. Given that the movement does not run consistently or as it should and many times not at all and considering that the movement shows no signs of ever having been serviced (there are no watchmaker service markings on the inside of the case back or on the movement) a complete overhaul is required. This watch measures approximately 37 mm excluding the crown, approximately 40 mm including the crown and approximately 19.5 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 9 mm. Including the crystal thickness measures approximately 10 mm. Given that the movement does not fire up with any consistency nor does it stay running for any extended period of time and considering that it shows no signs of ever having been serviced a complete overhaul is required. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time. For this watch that time is now. Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility. And please study the 12 high magnification pictures carefully, which were taken in natural light and from various angles, as they are part of the description and serve as an accurate representation of the condition of this watch.

Vintage Waltham Day-Date Diver withMint Gray Dial, Patina, All SS Case, Runs Strong

Posted on August 6, 2019 by admin

This vintage 1970’s Waltham day-date diver has a matte is “T SWISS T” signed dial that is in pristine condition, free of any scratching, tool marks, chipping or defects. The original tritium on the dial and hands, which remains fully intact and emits a quick-burst glow after being exposed to bright light, has aged to a perfectly matching toasted buttermilk hue. The black bezel, which rotates bidirectionally with an appropriate amount of tension, looks great. The all stainless steel case shows moderate wear and no signs of oxidation. The outside of the case back is stamped “WALTHAM ALL STAINLESS STEEL CASE – SWISS MADE” while the inside of the case back is stamped “WALTHAM WATCH” followed by “COMPANY SWISS” and B – 341. The crystal shows light scratching. The quickset date function works flawlessly by manually rolling over a new date and then moving the hour hand repeatedly between the 20 and 24 hour marks until the desired date has been reached. After recently winding the sharply threaded non-screwdown crown 40 full revolutions (phenomenal for a manual wind) the movement had a power reserve of approximately 43 hours. The crown winds beautifully. Given that this watch is more than 45 years old and considering that the movement shows no signs of ever having been serviced (there are no visible watchmaker service markings on the inside of the case back or on the movement) a complete overhaul is recommended. This watch measures approximately 36 mm excluding the crown, approximately 38.5 mm including the crown and approximately 20.5 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel is approximately 8 mm. Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 10.5 mm. Although this watch runs strong given its vintage nature and considering that the movement has likely never been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time.

Vintage Kelbert Diver withMint Dial, Patina, Blue Bezel, All SS Case, Screwdown Crown

Posted on August 3, 2019 by admin

This rarely seen vintage Kelbert diver is an example of a watch that looks markedly better in person than in the pictures. It has a matte black “T SWISS MADE T” signed dial that is in pristine condition, free of any visibly noticeable scratching, tool marks, chipping or defects. Any imperfections seen are on the crystal not the dial. The original tritium, which emits a quick-burst glow after being exposed to bright light, has aged gracefully to a perfectly matching warm buttermilk hue. The blue bezel, which rotates smoothly bidirectionally, is in my humble opinion the highlight of this watch. It is lovely and complements the dial beautifully. The all stainless steel case is in excellent condition showing minor wear and no significant dents or dings. The outer edge of the case back is stamped “SUPERWATERPROOF 20 ATMOS INCABLOC AUTOMATIC STAINLESS STEEL” with a picture of a diver and the numbers “70 N” stamped in the center. The crystal shows light scratching. The quickset date function works flawlessly by manually rolling over a new date and then moving the hour hand repeatedly between the 20.5 and 24 hour marks until the desired date has been reached. After recently winding the sharply threaded, appropriate 5 mm screwdown crown 39 full revolutions the movement had an impressive power reserve of nearly 45 hours. The crown winds buttery smooth and screws down beautifully. Given that this watch is more than 40 years old and considering that the movement shows no signs of ever having been serviced (there are no visible watchmaker service markings on the inside of the case back or on the movement) a complete overhaul is recommended. This watch measures approximately 38 mm excluding the crown, approximately 43 mm including the crown and and approximately 19 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 8.5 mm. Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 11 mm. Given the vintage nature of this watch and considering that the movement has likely never been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time.

Vintage Aquadive Diver withMint Dial, Patina, All SS Case, ETA 2873 Mvmt FOR REPAIR

Posted on August 2, 2019 by admin

FOR REPAIR – while the date and time can be set and the crown wound without issue, the movement does not run. Given this and considering that the movement appears to have been last serviced more than 30 years ago, a complete overhaul is required. This vintage Aquadive has a multicolored “T SWISS MADE T” signed dial that appears to be in pristine condition, free of any scratching, tool marks, chipping or defects. Please note that there is dust/debris on the underbelly of the crystal and to a lesser degree the dial. The original lume, which no longer glows after being exposed to bright light, has aged gracefully to a warm butterscotch hue. The minute hand is missing some lume. The silver bezel, which rotates bidirectionally a bit stiffly, shows wear. The heavy-duty all stainless steel case shows bruising with no visible signs of oxidation. The outer edge of the case back is stamped “TESTED 20 ATU ALL STAINLESS STEEL SWISS MADE WATERRESISTANT” with “5723” followed by “10906” stamped in the center. The inside of the case back is stamped NAC SALES INC. The crystal shows scratching and dust/debris on its underbelly. The 17 jewels unadjusted Swiss “NAC SALES INC” stamped ETA 2873 automatic movement with quickset date function is clean but does not run. The date and time can be set and the crown wound without issue. The quickset date function works flawlessly by unscrewing the screwdown crown, pulling it out to the first position and then turning it clockwise until the desired date has been reached. The crown screws down perfectly as it should and winds smoothly. Given that the movement does not run and considering that it was likely last serviced in the 1980’s (the lone watchmaker service marking on the inside of the case back appears to be from either 1985 or 1987) a complete overhaul is required. This watch measures approximately 38 mm excluding the crown, approximately 42 mm including the crown and approximately 18.5 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 9 mm. Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 11 mm. This watch comes on a stainless steel “HONG KONG” stamped bracelet that is in excellent condition showing little stretch and a buckle that snaps tightly shut. It will likely accommodate up to a 7 inch wrist. Given that the movement does not run and considering that it likely hasn’t been serviced in more than 30 years a complete overhaul is required. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time. For this watch that time is now. Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility.

Vintage Baume & Mercier Skin Diver withMint Dial, Patina, All SS Case, Runs Strong

Posted on July 26, 2019 by admin

This seldom seen Baume & Mercier has a matte black “T-SWISS MADE-T” signed dial that is in pristine condition, free of any scratching, tool marks, chipping or defects. Please note that there is some dust/debris on the underbelly of the crystal and to a lesser degree the dial. The tritium, which remains fully intact and emits a quick-burst glow on the dial only after being exposed to bright light, has aged nicely. The black bezel, which rotates very stiffly, presents beautifully. The all stainless steel case is in excellent condition showing minor wear and very light signs of oxidation. The outer edge of the case back is stamped “STAINLESS STEEL AUTOMATIC SWISS MADE SKIN DIVER 12 ATMOSPHERES WATERPROOF INCABLOC” with some difficult to read number stamped along the inner edge. The inside of the case back is stamped “MODELE” followed by MLB. The crystal shows light crazing and scratching as well as some dust/debris on its underbelly. The quickset date function works flawlessly by manually rolling over a new date and then repeatedly moving the hour hand between the 20.5 and 24 hour marks until the desired date has been reached. After recently winding the sharply threaded, non-screwdown crown 39 full revolutions the movement had an impressive power reserve of approximately 43 hours. The crown winds smoothly. Given that this watch is more than 45 years old and considering that the movement appears to have been last serviced in 1986 (the lone etching “3-29-86 ABE” on the inside of the case back is likely a watchmaker service marking) a complete overhaul is recommended. This watch measures approximately 34 mm excluding the crown, approximately 37.5 mm including the crown and approximately 20 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 8 mm. Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 10.5 mm. Given the vintage nature of this watch and considering that the movement appears to have been last serviced more than 33 years ago a complete overhaul is recommended. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time. Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility.

Vintage NOS Paul Peugeot Day-Date Diver withMint Dial, All SS Case, Screwdown Crown

Posted on July 25, 2019 by admin

The silver satin “T SWISS MADE T” signed dial is in pristine condition, free of any scratching, tool marks, chipping or defects. Any imperfections seen are on the crystal, not the dial. The original tritium, which remains fully intact and emits a quick-burst glow after being exposed to bright light, has aged gracefully to a warm buttermilk hue. The brushed all stainless steel bezel, which rotates bidirectionally with an appropriate amount of tension, is beautiful. The all stainless steel case is in wonderful condition showing negligible wear and very minor signs of oxidation. The outer edge of the case back is stamped “WATERRESISTANT INCABLOC AUTOMATIC ALL STAINLESS STEEL SWISS MADE” with “TESTED TO 600 FEET” stamped in the center. The crystal shows light scratching. According to my watchmaker the case back on this watch had never been previously removed and the original sticker remains intact. The quickset date function works flawlessly by manually rolling over a new date and then moving the hands repeatedly between the 20 and 24 hour marks until the desired date has been reached. After recently winding the sharply threaded screwdown crown 39 full revolutions the movement had an impressive power reserve of approximately 41 hours. The crown winds nicely with a bit of friction and it screws down perfectly. Although the movement runs strong and keeps accurate time considering that it has never been serviced (the case back had never been removed prior to my watchmaker doing so) a complete overhaul is recommended. This watch measures approximately 38 mm excluding the crown, approximately 42 mm including the crown and approximately 19.5 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 11 mm. Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 13.5 mm. Although the movement currently runs strong and keeps accurate time considering that it has never been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time.
