FS: OLLECH & WAJS 17J PRECISION DIVER, VIETNAM ERA

For your consideration is a vintage Ollech & Wajs 17J Precision Diver's watch from the Vietnam era. These are very rare and this piece is as close to pristine as I believe you will find. Most that I have seen are highly used and not working. The original mechanical 17 Jewel hand-wound Ollech & Wajs movement runs perfect and keeps excellent time. It was recently fully serviced by my watchmaker who has over 30 years’ experience.

Size without crown: 38mm - Size for Strap: 19mm. The watch comes with a new black NATO strap. The original dial & hands (typical O&W – design from this period) and the original crown are all in excellent condition. Lume is nicely aged and matches as it should between dial and hands.

Crystal is new and features Cyclopes over date. The case back is original and all original etchings are sharp and legible. The case is in excellent condition overall. The original bezel turns bi-directional as it should. The Serial Number is 2361.
