The watch is from Circa. 2020 and is sold in worn condition, but overall very fair condition as you can see. The watch comes with our 12-Months Waterproof Warranty.
The Watch
In 2013 Dan Henry created Timeline Watch which showcases his collection of many hundreds of watches. Dan Henry, a collector for over 30 years, decided to create affordable watches in 2016 inspired by watches worn by the racers of their day.
Dan Henry is a brand that has been taking the collecting community by storm and proven incredibly popular; this 1970 was no exception. The watch is based on the super compressor divers of the 1970s and has done an excellent job of paying homage to them whilst adding modern features. At 40mm the watch has a significant wrist presence. One thing immediately noticeable once the watch is in hand is the double-domed mineral glass sapphire coated to make it harder. The 2 o’clock crown operates the inner bezel. A matte black dial with an outer orange and black minute track. Applied indices coated in improved LumiNova. Broad sword hands coated in improved LumiNova complemented with an orange seconds hand. On the reverse, a screw-back case with a Scaphtopus 3D medal in the center. If you are looking for an affordable super compressor watch with heritage design, but modern qualities then look no further, this watch offers an insane amount for the price, not least of which is an automatic movement, the Seiko NH35. The watch comes fitted on a 22mm perforated rubber strap with a signed buckle.
Personal Note
Having owned and sold multiple Dan Henry's I can vouch for their quality at an incredibly affordable price, they do offer a ton of value for the money. The colour scheme and size is what Dan Henry has absolutely nailed here, it is why they are so popular and have continued to trade well.
