Thoughts on new Jenny Caribbean

[demer03]

Agree. I just cannot find fault with the originals....

My Pro;

Lovely. Is it untouched?

Wrist shot!

Yep. Original glossy dial, unmarked crystal, smooth bezel with deep etching still, and the bracelet operates like a dream. Sold it to a friend in a Rolex fever , but it's on it's way back to me now.

This one is out at the watchmaker getting the hands done correctly and a service;

Wow, that T-graph is stunning! Got any other gems like that?

The return of the TGraph will help restore balance. Hopefully it sticks around.

Nice write up BTW on the Jenny.

Ah, Dave....sold off more than I should have during a forum induced Rolex fever. Down to those two oldies at the moment.

Would love to add a vintage Jenny Sealab or such. Maybe that will be the 2013 goal!

Thanks for the kind words.

In my experience, vintage Jenny Sealabs are not a patch on the vintage Caribbeans. The former are essentially generic parts bin watches that are all but identical to other similar vintage divers with acrylic bezels such as various Aquadives, Tavernias, Mondaines, Felsers etc. I've seen a few nice Sealabs for sure; the all yellow one that one of the Doxa moderators owns, and the oval all orange versions. However, they do not deserve to fetch similar prices to the Caribbeans IMO.

Good to know, Thanks! New stuff to learn about.

Bargains still exist if you look hard enough and are lucky.
