Scarce Vintage 1966 Sandoz Diver Super Compressor no-date!

There were enquiries regarding this watch, so I upload new pictures for your viewing pleasure.
I am sorry, I am still "hooked" to this fabulous vintage diver watch, and not ready to part with it yet (unless if there is very very good offer).


(Estimated) circa 1966, one of the earliest Henry Sandoz & Fils super compressor diver watch with no date!
Still functioning well considering its age including rotating inner bezel marker and keeping good timing. I am not sure about water tightness though so better assume no, and I dont intend to soak it in the water or shower.
All original including thick hardlex domed crystal, dial, hands, 2-signed crowns, movement.
The sharkmesh bracelet is a new generic diver watch bracelet.
Case material is high grade stainless steel.
Diameter without crown is 40mm.
Thickness is about 13.5mm
Lug size 20mm
Lug-to-lug is about 47mm.








Sent for full-service in 2013. Cleaned, o-ring changed, timing calibrated as u can see here.
