You all know I love these early divers...

First generation Girard-Perregaux Deep Diver released in 1957, reference 7254 is no exception...

Here is one I recently got back from my watchmaker!

The love the inscription on the sub-dial: DEEP DIVER, 100 FATHOMS.

Very nice, but hard to consider it a diving watch,

with no screw down crown or time lapse bezel at all.

One of the charm of early divers....

And as I am not planning to go diving with this one on my wrist anytime soon... Best Blomman

Yes, I think the silver dial version is more common....
