1980 ROYAL NAVY DIVERS AUTOMATIC REISSUE WATCH

Item code: 73119

1980 Reissue Royal Navy Divers Watch
(Light Vintage only)

"The 1980 RN Divers Automatic originally issued to RN Clearance Divers, NSN 0552/9237697. This watch actually superseded the Rolex MilSub on the wrists of Royal Navy divers, and its first version, with a self-winding mechanical movement, is far rarer than the Rolex it replaced."
