Orange Delight
Very surprised at how many orange Seawolves have been on ebay recently, as many as three/four in the last few months. Managed to snag a nice one in good condition though did have to take it to my local watchmaker for a service. Seller purchased it in either 1969 or 1970 and used it for diving for over a decade. The chapter ring and hour markers have lost their once vibrant orange color but the dial is really nicely preserved. This piece has lots of great character. This Seawolf is fitted with a quickset date as well, just press in the crown. Gaskets were goo, so no more diving for this vet but it'll take its place in my rotation. Looks great on a Nato.
