Matthew's Note

The Seafarer is one of the best collaborations between a retailer and watchmaker there is. Abercrombie & Fitch collaborated with Heuer to make a line of sporting watches beginning in the 1940's. The Solunar being the first, then followed by the incredible Seafarer which was made in numerous executions between 1950 and 1970. Here we have a mint example of a second execution reference 2443 Seafarer. This watch is not only a chronograph but also has a tide indicator at 9 oclock. The all original dial has a green and yellow palate for the tide register and gold tone hands matching the gold Arabic numerals for the hour markers. The condition of the dial and case is just incredible for a tool watch like the Seafarer. We believe this case to be unpolished. This is one of the nicest A&F Heuer's we have had. These watches were sold through the Abercrombie and Fitch store and used by fishermen. Many of these watches did not fair to well since they were around lots of watch. This beauty is powered by a modified Valjoux 72 movement. We are so pleased to be offering this incredible watch.
