FOR SALE IS A PATINA QUEEN 1975 BULOVA-CARAVELLE 666FT DEVIL SHARK DIVER FRESH FROM A SERVICE AND SIGNED 4X
-
CASE: SLEEK AND SEXY ALL-STEEL CASE MEASURING A NICE 37mm ACROSS BEZEL NOT INCLUDING ORIGINAL SIGNED CROWN BY 44mm LUG TO LUG. CASE IS IN GOOD VINTAGE CONDITION WITH ALL THE ORIGINAL FACTORY FINISHES INTACT AND UNPOLISHED. THERE ARE SOME SLIGHT DINGS AND SCRATCHES ON THE CASE SIDES, BUT OVERALL THIS THING LOOKS PRETTY SHARP. I LOVE THE SUBTLE HINTS OF GHOST FADE ON THE BEZEL WHICH REALLY LOOKS GOOD WITH THE OVERALL PATINA ON THIS ONE. THESE BEZELS ARE COOL IN THAT THEY ARE INSET INTO THE CASE MAKING FOR A VERY STREAMLINED LOOK.

DIAL: IF YOU LIKE A HEAVY DOSE OF PATINA ON YOUR DIVE DIALS, THIS IS YOUR BOY. THIS FACE IS AGED TO PERFECTION. I JUST LOVE THAT BURNT SUGAR AGED TRITIUM LUME ON THOSE PROMINENT SHARK-TOOTH MARKERS. I'M A SUCKER FOR THOSE BLACK STICK HANDS WITH THE MATCHING AGED LUME. THE BULLSEYE MOTIF OF THIS DIAL IS SUPER COOL WITH THAT GLOSS BLACK RING SURROUNDED BY THAT SILVER MATTE FINISH. ONE OF MY FAVORITE DEVIL-DIVER DIALS.

MOVEMENT: THIS SHARKY DEVIL RUNS ON A CLEAN SWISS MADE A.SCHILD 17 JEWEL HAND-WINDER WHICH HAS BEEN RECENTLY SERVICED. IT RUNS BUTTER SMOOTH AND KEEPS EXCELLENT TIME..
- WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A SUPER SLICK MILANESE STYLE STEEL BRACELET WHICH LOOKS PERFECT ON THIS GUY. THIS IS ONE OF THE MORE RARE BULOVA CARAVELLE DIVERS WHICH I BELIEVE THEY ONLY MADE FOR 1 YEAR IN 1975. I LOVE THE BOLD IMPACT OF THIS ONE. THIS IS A GREAT EVERYDAY PIECE WHICH WEARS COMFORTABLY AND IS SUPER SPORTY.
