Title: First-Generation Seawolfs
Post by: ang217 on January 29, 2016, 12:01:02 AM
Hi guys,

Just signed up today, so I'm totally new. I'd like to show and share some of my latest finds!

From what I know, these are the first-generation Seawolfs, one of them merely a '10 atm' with the black dial, and another the actual first-gen Seawolf. I'd really like to uncover more about the black dial '10 atm', as it's a little mysterious to me..! The case-back actually is inscribed 'Seawolf' and '10 atm Especially Water Tested', which is using the exact same case as the first-gen. I'm wondering whether the name 'Seawolf' had been patented(?) yet? Also the crown is not signed! Both have original dials.

I'm realising how rare these are, bit by bit, and would love to get a conversation going.. :)

Cheers,
Angus

They are shown in the 50's catalogs.

The black dial one looks pretty rare.  Here's my white dial version, came with a funky expanding oyster bracelet as well but it doesn't fit any of the latter true Seawolves.  Neat watch.  There was a gent selling a NOS version of this many moons ago, for an darned nice price.  Cash poor at the time..

Wow that's so cool! Your white dial piece there resembles the elements of both mine put together.. That is awesome.

The lume on the hands all seem to be this kind of odd green, faded colour right? I've seen a few examples and they're all like this.

Do you mind me asking what the case-back on this is like?

Thanks!!
Angus  :woohoo;
