CONDITION

Divers watches are also known as tool watches, as they are built to serve a purpose.  as tools, they often get knocks and show a lot of wear and tear.  However this Caravelle (a sister brand of Bulova) is in very good shape for it’s age.  The stainless steel case has only a few marks, the dial is very clean and the only negatives are the minute hand has lost some lume and the case back has various tool marks.  The bi directional bezel turns freely, but the insert has a few marks.  The plexiglass crystal is very clean, and the 17 jewel movement is working well, handwinding from the signed original crown.
