Title: Does anyone own a Sea Skate?
Post by: davec73 on September 15, 2009, 09:48:56 PM
Civilian (gentile) version of the Seawolf if you will, no rotating bezel.

Always thought about picking one up but something always kept me from pulling the trigger (like poverty).

the photo below was from a grouping that some gent had for sale a whiles back.  Not my watches.  Not sure if the black dial Sea Skate is a redial, due to the font of the Zodiac.

I have a Sea Skate, but as the dial was shot, I currently have a SW dial on it. Who knows, some day I just may come across another Skate dial for it. <sigh> Here is some info on it if you have not seen it. http://www.vintagezodiacs.com/gallery/SeaWolf/02-SW-Paperwork2.JPG (http://www.vintagezodiacs.com/gallery/SeaWolf/02-SW-Paperwork2.JPG)

I have seen them with 50's solid SW hands, 60's veined SW hands, and then as the dress model with the thin dress. Here are some pictures.
