The movement, which received a complete overhaul in August 2020, keeps accurate time over an approximate 41 hour power reserve period. While no service paperwork will be provided my watchmaker’s service marking is etched on the inside of the case back. This vintage Scubapro 500 has matte black “TSWISS MADET” signed dial that is in pristine condition. Any imperfections seen are on the crystal, not the dial. The lume 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 warm buttermilk hue. The fat font black bezel, which ratchets counterclockwise, presents nicely with the toasted butterscotch inverted triangle lume complementing the patina on the dial and hands beautifully. The massive all stainless steel case shows honest wear with no visible signs of oxidation. The outer edge of the case back is stamped “INCABLOC STAINLESS STEEL SWISS MADE 67199 SUPER-WATERRESISTANT” with “SCUBAPRO WORLDWIDE” followed by “4812” stamped in the center. The inside of the case back is stamped “6420” followed by “SCUBAPRO” and SWISS MADE. The original crystal shows scratching and UV film deterioration. In my humble opinion the imperfections aren’t nearly as pronounced in person. The 17 jewels unadjusted Swiss “SCUBAPRO” signed ETA 2784 automatic movement with quickset date function is. Clean and received a complete overhaul in August 2020. After recently winding the original. 39 full revolutions the movement kept accurate time over an approximate 41 hour power reserve period. The crown unscrews and screws back down perfectly as it should and it winds smoothly. This watch measures approximately 41 mm excluding the crown, approximately 44 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 13.5 mm. The crystal adds no additional thickness. Although the movement recently received a complete overhaul and keeps accurate time 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.
