Brand: Helbros
Typology: Vintage diver watch
Year: 1960

Helbros began in 1913. The name actually comes from its founders, the Helbein Brothers. They were middle class Swiss German watchmakers who set out with one primary goal…that goal being to design and manufacture a quality timepiece that could be made affordable to the working public. 1913 was an era when only the relatively well-to-do could afford a timepiece.

The two brother’s success was enough to make their watch brand, Helbros, a household name throughout the 20’s, 30’s, 40’s and 50’s. In the 1940’s, Helbros was very much in the midst of the War Bond efforts of the United States. In the 1960’s, they designed a watch that actually told lunar time. The interesting part of the history of Helbros is that while other watch companies have changed ownership many, many times in their relatively short history, Helbros has only ever been in the hands of three ownerships…each interestingly enough trained by the previous.

This skin diver is in incredible condition, even complete with the original set, box, booklets and bracelet with additional links.
The shiny black dial is embellished with tritium markers; the hand-wound movement, Felsa 96-4 has just been serviced and runs perfectly.

A truly gem from 60s.
