Wolbrook French World Timer Diver
Hi guys, I scored a watch today in a trade. Leaving aside all the ugly details, it was a straight across trade... I gave a tall case clock that did not run (at the moment) for a cool-looking watch I’ve never heard of. 
Anyone seen this brand before? My guess is Seventies.
It says 6BAR but I’m not risking it.
Mech wind, no quickset on the date.
So far haven’t got a tool to open it.
PS - found movement photo ☹️ 1 jewel movement!
PPS - found this watch that sold on eBay a week or two ago out of my home town - it must have been its mate! Rats

Wolbrook is a new one on me!
But (minus the city bezel and mermaid) it reminds me a lot of my first watch in the mid 60s. A Sheffield dive watch. Wind, plastic crystal. That's a funky-fun watch Mike!
Well, I think its pretty cool.
It definitely has character. It could fit right in to a Tarantino movie. 1 jewel - that’s the first time I see that!
Anybody know why the cities on the bezel are in a strange order?
Greenwich Paris Tel Aviv Moscow Los Angeles Denver Chicago New York San Juan Tokyo Sydney Dakar

On the white dial you posted, the cities have a “+” or. “-“ and Greenwich none. I’m guessing it means you count backwards or forwards. I haven’t checked if it matches up.
