WOW Jurgen , a rare beauty you have there.
I own the 1163P from the OTD reference photo's , a very similar cousin to your recent find.
I dont recall seeing another example beyond the 2 in this thread. Great to see one with the lume hour markers come up.
Enjoy your new treasure - Darren
: Guys,
: Just landed myself this gorgeous, and dare I say rare, bright
: orange beauty.
: Appears to be the last series of the 1163 cased divers with serial
: 2247xx. Earlier models had applied markers and orange tipped
: steel hands. This has lume markers and painted hands similar to
: the 11630P.
: The 1972 brochure lists this as a 11630P but the picture shows the
: 1163 case and bezel, combined with this lume dial. Hands are the
: earlier steel version.
: Isn't she lovely, isn't she wonderful? She certainly was precious
