Friends,

 

The modern Sea Hawk has a big (44 mm) and quite brutal looking case…


This was not always the case (pun intended).

wink

In the early 1960s the case was much smaller (34 mm) and more classic.


What both these watches have in common except for the Sea Hawk name is having a very interesting texture on the dial.

The textures that give life to the dial and make it jump out and grab you!

The modern…


And the vintage…


Two very different watches, more than 50 years apart…

But still a lot of common DNA runs through them!

Love the warm tone on your dial! :)

Yes, a little something, something I have been keeping in the back for a while...! Best Blomman

When I see the oldest GP, the texture of its dial makes me think about a PP with a back winder but I do not remember its reference.

Regarding the last generation, I really like this model but my favourite one is the Mermaids in green
