COMING AT YOU IS A JAW-DROPPING SILVANA 20ATM SKIN-DIVER CHRONO WITH SOME AMAZING PATINA.
-
CASE: SOLID STEEL SKIN-DIVER CASE IN EXCELLENT UNPOLISHED CONDITION. MEASURING IN AT 38.2mm ACROSS BEZEL BY 47.2mm LUG TO LUG, THIS ONE WEARS LARGE. CHECK OUT THAT AGED BEZEL WITH THE PERFECT AMOUNT OF FADE GIVING IT AN ALMOST METALLIC GREY LOOK.
-
DIAL: THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE REVERSE PANDA DIALS. THAT DEEP GLOSS BLACK FACE WITH THOSE SILVER SUB-DIALS AND THOSE AGGRESSIVE HEAVY LUMED ARROW MARKERS MAKES FOR SOME SERIOUS VISUAL IMPACT. CHECK OUT THOSE BROAD ARROW STYLE DIVER HANDS WITH THE TRITIUM PERFECTLY MATCHING THAT OF THE DIAL. I LOVE THE SIMPLICITY OF THIS ONE WITH THE 3 LINES OF TEXT AND "SILVANA" WRITTEN IN NICE LARGE LETTERING. IT ALL COMES TOGETHER MAGICALLY.
-
MOVEMENT: THIS BRUTE IS POWERED BY A LANDERON 248. ALL FUNCTIONS WORK PERFECTLY AND WATCH HAS BEEN KEEPING EXCELLENT TIME. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN BUT WATCH IS FUNCTIONING CRISPLY.
- THIS SILVANA WILL COME WITH THE 2 STRAPS PICTURED. ONE IS A LUXURIOUS CAMEL COLOR PERFORATED MINIMALIST STRAP WHICH WEARS SUPER SPORTY. THE OTHER IS A HANDMADE EXTREME TAPER BROWN BOMBER STRAP PROVIDED BY RUEWATCHES. THIS IS ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE SKIN-DIVER CHRONOS OF THE ERA. THIS CASE/DIAL COMBO WAS USED BY A FEW DIFFERENT BRANDS IN THE 60s AND REALLY IS STUNNING. THE COMBO OF THAT GLOSS DIAL, THOSE HEAVY LUMED "SHARK TEETH" MARKERS WITH NICE EVEN PATINA, AND THAT SLIGHTLY FADED BEZEL IS JUST THE PERFECT COMBO OF VINTAGE PERFECTION.
