FS: Rare vintage Orient King Diver 1000m aka Baby Panerai 1960s

Hi folks,

This is one very rare watch that I thought that I will be keeping... but I really need to consolidate my collection for another grail that I really want for a long time. This watch is made in the late 60s.

This is one watch that needs little introduction as it is one of the most sought after yet rare Orient watch that is very hard to find. If you want to read more, you can visit this excellent site:

This specimen has a super remarkable unpolished case (at least it looks like to me) with rare colored markings (which is usually gone) on the case back.
Dial is excellent with little sign of patina and all parts are original & correct with the exception of the crown.

Lug screws works perfect and intact as this is one part that is often missing.

Here is the watch for sale:
