On offer is a fantastic and highly charming vintage Oysterdate, circa 1957. It features a 30mm case which we believe makes it work well as a unisex watch. This piece houses a waffle dial that has taken a warm "tropical" patina. It also has a "roulette" date wheel which flips from black to red every other day. Overall, it has remained in lovely vintage condition with an evenly aged dial, offering great character. The case is equally nice with thick, evenly proportioned lugs. For anyone looking for a smaller timepiece, this "Honeybee" is not likely to be seen anywhere else in the wild.
