For sale is this gorgeous, classy Orient King Diver. I would say it's from the mid to late 1970s. It's powered by the in-house 25 jewel automatic Cal. 1942. The watch is in great condition with a unique day/date cyclops on the acrylic crystal. The color scheme is beautiful, IMO. The dark black of the face, the silver pips and the fire truck red of the inner bezel. Amazingly, for a 40+ year old watch, there is still a little bit of life left in the lume. It's also a large watch for this period, measuring about 42mm without the crowns. The watch comes with an aftermarket SS sharkmesh bracelet that complements it perfectly (IMO). 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 at midnight. There are tons of vintage Orient King Divers for sale on eBay, but none like this one. Pretty cool to know you'll almost certainly never see a copy of your watch on someone else's wrist. Given the watch's condition and relative scarcity, I'm listing this one for $350 shipped USPS to CONUS. I think that's a fair price, given the market. I'm not a watchmaker or professional watch-seller, so this is an as-is sale. Please take a good look at the photos, as they are part of the description. Don't hesitate to ping me with any questions or if you'd like additional pix.

Estimated Private Party Value $149 — $200
