Description

This is an automatically translated text.
A rare and sought-after diver from the 1960s, the calypsomatic certainly needs no introduction; those who do not know its history can find all the information about the various references and their characteristics on the web.
Here I propose the reference 5913 (second execution), magnificent all-steel case 38mm in diameter (the same as the skydiver and polerouter sub), original in every part, except for the plexy glass which is certainly old but is not the original one because it is without the lens.
The stunning gilt dial, probably of the later reference 7085 (a common thing in those years was to mount in reference changeovers, components of different references to complete stocks of materials, which was smart moreover) is in fantastic condition, beautiful also the red/celeste "roulette" date window. The famous and sturdy eta 2472 movement that moves it looks well cleaned and works perfectly, but I don't know the date of the last revision nor the history of the previous ones, the original "Big Crown" winding crown winds but won't screw in, the tube threads must have worn out. Tritium on hour markers and spheres (some not present on the latter) uniformly turned a dark shade gives the watch a great vintage charm.
Incredibly beautiful watch!
