Jenny Caribbean 700 Diver
Jenny Caribbean 700 Diver
Here's one you don't see everyday. The Caribbean Diver was sold under various brands, including Doxa, Aquadive, Philips Watch and Fortis, but Jenny was the actual case manufacturer and an important brand in its own right being responsible for the first 1000m water resistant watch available to the public with the brand's proprietary Caribbean Triple-Safe case construction.
The 700 in this spec is earlier than the more commonly seen 'Shark Tooth' lug variants, and utilises a steel case measuring in at 39mm across the bezel for a contemporary size. The case is razor sharp, and appears unpolished with factory finishes in place. Original unsigned crown in place.
The acrylic/bakelite is uncracked, though shows spotting and some discoloration in areas as is typical.
The glossy dial itself is in lovely condition, with some bubbling present under a loupe. Some dust flecks are present on the dial.
Has just been fitted to a brand new Fluco Tropic-style strap.
Service history is unknown. Appears to likely have had some attention in the not too distant past as it's keeping COSC time at high 200's amplitude.
Comes Watch Vault cleaning cloth and Watch Vault travel case. No box or papers.
