Now with new Stainless Steel Bracelet and Sellita SW-200 Movement.
The original Precista Royal Navy diver is arguably the rarest of all British issued dive watches, being issued in 1981 and 1982 only. The stock number is 0552/923-7697 which curiously, was also the number used on Rolex and CWC issued divers around this time.
Examples offered for sale often command a price in excess of £2,000 with a couple of pieces being priced at over £15k.
Apart from the asymmetrical case, the most distinctive feature of this model is the hands; the hands have two familiar names, one of them is "snake head" hands.
The 2023 version now includes a ceramic bezel insert and comes fitted with a Stainless Steel bracelet plus a limited edition navy blue NATO strap.
All watches are guaranteed against defective workmanship for 24 months from
date of purchase and the guarantee for the first 12 months applies to the
original purchaser only.
The Bracelet screws are not fully tightened to allow for easy first-time adjustment. After sizing please tighten and we suggest using a removable threadlock such as Loctite Blue 242 to secure the screws.
