Hello all,
I have been lurking here a while, and decided to post as I am still a bit vexed by this watch.
I'm not a high-end watch collector, but I have amassed a small collection of affordable pieces and know a little bit about watches in general. After my aunt's recent passing I was given three vintage watches that belonged to my grandfather including this, pictures posted below.
Obviously, the most unique thing about it is the name on the dial under the Enicar space logo. Apparently he wore it quite a bit, because the case back is quite worn and it is hard to see all that is written on the back in terms of model info. What I can make out on it include: Seapearl, Incacloc, 100/301 BAPS, Stainless Steel Back, Ultrasonic, Automatic. There also appears to be something that looks like "Brevet" with a swiss cross and then "31496" or something close.
I have seen similar watches, but nothing quite the same. I would love some info from the experts, between the case back info I could get and the dial photos. Largely the approximate date it was manufactured would be nice, movement info, as well as any info about its place in the company's history. Just would like to know a little more about this little watch, if possible.
Thanks in advance!
