Hey Folks,

to post something else than Chronograph content, I'd like to show you my latest aquisition. It's an Enicar Seapearl 600 branded "Central Skindiver". Those seems to be very rare, at least I havnt seen one before. We all know the cool Healthway divers, and also the U.S. Divers Sherpa Divettes, but this one was new to me in real life. Allthough the ads of Central Skindivers are well known and it seems, there are also the crab style divers (like the Healthways) out there with this branding, as well as bezel featured watches like the Divette or Dive.
One noticable thing is also the date "1960" on the dial. Since we don't know others of this kind, I have no clue if they really changed the date for every year, or if this just was a 1960 thing.

The Seapearl itself is a small watch considering its a tool watch for diving. It's diamter is just 34.5mm, but due to the very striking dial, its still wearable today (at least on my wrist :D ). The Movement should be a Cal. 1010, I will add pics of this later.

Very interesting watch!

You can find several Central Skindiver's adverts at Skin Diving History

Here's one of them featuring a crab style watch:

5620

Notice the description mentions Healthways famous 100 fathom watch, Ultrasonic and a bayonet back.
