1960s vintage Baylor Vacuumatic all stainless steel divers watch on nos black rubber Tropic-type strap.
This is the same watch as the Glycine Vacuum with the exception of the printing on the dial and rotor.
This is a great looking watch in really nice condition, keeping correct time, date changes as it should.
The watch has just been serviced by Paul's Watch & Clock Repair, who supplied the pictures of the movement and inside of case before reassembly.
The all stainless case is marked Glycine inside and measures 35mm without the non-screwdown original crown which is special to these watches.
The bidirectional bezel rotates smoothly and stays in place as it should.
The black dial is in excellent original, condition, not refinished.
The snowflake hands show a little wear when viewed under magnification.
The mineral crystal is original and in excellent condition.
The movement is a very clean Swiss 17j ETA 2472 automatic wind.
Overall this is an uncommon, very clean original watch.
Since this is a vintage watch, water-resistance is not guaranteed and submersion is not suggested.
$325 including USA shipping.
Thank you,
Scott
