Aquastar Diver

Among the vast world of vintage timepieces, there is no doubt that diving watches hold a special place in the hearts of many collectors, ourselves included. With their simple and clean designs and reliable, robust movements, the tool watches of the 1960s and 1970s were built to accompany adventurers across the globe and to keep time at their great heights as well as their dark depths. For every Rolex Submariner, Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, or Omega Seamaster, there were scores of other lesser-known names that nevertheless merit consideration from the vintage watch enthusiast. Aquastar is one of those names.  This particular model is truly special. Featuring a standard 34mm waterproof stainless case that saw use in countless contract diving watches of the era, this lovely Aquastar Reference 1713 is fitted with a two piece sunburst Tritium dial, oversized applied indices at 6:00, 9:00, and 12:00, with an asymmetrical date window at 3 o'clock, a matching handset, a signed crown, and a beautiful domed acrylic crystal. While the vintage skin diver market remains plentiful, not many can match the charm and charisma of this Aquastar Diver! This gorgeous example is ready to go - don’t miss it!
