This is a early to mid 1970s skin diver with amazing tropic patination. Powered by a 25 jewel automatic, this watch has a screw-down crown and a fully articulated day/date complication. I'm not sure of the exact measurement, but I'd say it's about 39.5/40mm without the crown. It's certainly not in perfect shape but all the wear is honest and it has amazing character. Haven't timed it but the watch winds and runs smoothly with a beautiful second-hand sweep. The day and date change over as they should around midnight. There are plenty of vintage Breil divers out there ([it's an important brand](https://www.thewatchforum.co.uk/threads/breil-watches-a-short-history.120906/)) but I've never seen another one of these. It comes on a vintage aftermarket SS bracelet. Given the scarcity of this watch, the recognized brand, the substantial size and the gorgeous patination, I'm selling it for $250 shipped via USPS to CONUS only. I'm not a watchmaker or professional watch-seller, so this is an as-is sale. Please take a good look at the photos below, as they are part of the description. Don't hesitate to ping me with any questions or if you'd like additional pix.
