CASE: TIDY AND CLEAN CHROMED MIL-DIVER CASE IN GOOD SHAPE MEASURING A NICE 36.5mm ACROSS BEZEL BY 41.5mm LUG TO LUG.

DIAL: THIS MINTY DIAL IS BOSS!!!! I JUST LOVE THAT GLOSSY BLACK DIAL WITH THOSE EXTREMELY CLEAN TRITIUM LUMED MARKERS IN AN EXPLORER STYLE LAYOUT. THE ORIGINAL LUME ON THE DIAL HAS HELD UP AMAZINGLY OVER TIME AND MATCHES PERFECTLY WITH THAT ON THE HANDS. SPEAKING OF HANDS.....ONE OF THE COOLEST SETS I'VE SEEN. I JUST LOVE THAT MILITARY STYLE BLUNTED HOUR HAND AND CHECK OUT THE GROOVY DIAMOND SHAPED LUMED SECONDS HAND. CLASSIC!!!!
-
MOVEMENT: THIS ORVIN RUNS ON A 17J A. SCHILD 1950 MANUAL WIND MOVEMENT WHICH HAS BEEN RUNNING WELL AND KEEPING TIME. WATCH HAS JUST RETURNED FROM A FULL OVERHAUL AND IS KEEPING SPOT-ON TIME.
- WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A THICK DARK BROWN MONTANA LEATHER STRAP MADE IN THE USA WHICH REALLY ACCENTS THE FIELD-DIVER LOOK. THIS ONE MAKES FOR A GREAT ALL-ROUNDER. IT WOULD LOOK REAL SLICK WITH A SPORTS COAT BUT WOULD ALSO MAKE FOR THE PERFECT WEEKEND WARRIOR.
