For sale is a striking 1960s Croton Skin Diver, a Swiss-made dive watch that channels the bold, utilitarian aesthetic of the golden age of skin diving. With its chunky square luminous markers, red-tipped seconds hand, and pearlescent green dial that shifts dramatically in the light, this Croton punches well above its weight in both charm and wrist presence. The watch features a classic skin diver case, slim, contoured, and easy-wearing, paired with a clean rotating friction bezel and domed acrylic crystal. The tritium lume on the dial and hands has aged to a warm custard tone, giving the piece a cohesive vintage warmth. Mounted on a perforated tropic style strap, it wears like something straight out of a 1960s dive catalog. **Key Features** • Brand: Croton • Model: Aquachron • Movement: Swiss automatic • Case: Stainless steel, approx. 36mm • Dial: Pearlescent green with applied square tritium lume markers • Hands: Baton hands with tritium fill and red-tipped seconds • Bezel: Black bidirectional friction bezel • Crystal: Domed acrylic • Strap: Black tropic-style perforated rubber strap • Production Years: 1960s • Condition: Excellent vintage condition with warm patina, clean dial, and crisp case lines **Why Collectors Love It** Croton, known as the U.S. distributor for Nivada Grenchen, offered a wide range of quality Swiss watches under its own name during the 1960s. This model in particular bears a strong resemblance to the Tissot PR-516 famously worn by James Bond in Live and Let Die, especially with its luminous square hour markers and red-accented hand. The combination of tool-watch practicality with vibrant color and patina makes this a standout piece for collectors of mid-century dive watches. Rare to find in such original condition, this Croton is a perfect mix of vintage style and ready-to-wear appeal. Please reach out if you want to see this or any other watch over FaceTime.
