The StoryNew in for your personal perusal is this juicy 1970s Squale compressor diver, signed by scuba diving company Hever (at 12, no less), as it was common for diving companies to put their logo on their equipment. This piece packs a ton of charm and complications into a modern and wearable 40mm case, with a quickset date, internal rotating bezel controlled by the 2nd crown, external bi-directional bakelite bezel, a blue dial that’s faded into a subtle purple and red-centre hour markers. All in good condition, this watch stands out above the pack in all the right ways.The DetailsBrand: SqualeModel: “Hever” Compressor Diver (1970s)Features: Dual-crown, quickset date, internal and external bezel, scuba company-signed dialCase: 40mm stainless steelMovement: Original Squale automaticBracelet/Strap: Blue canvas \"braided\" pattern strap from Central WatchLug Width: 20mmBox & Papers: NoCondition: Some light chipping on internal bezel and even patina on the dial, fading from blue into a purple (that we love!), all in good condition for its age.
