Silvana Waikiki

Post by Steve O. » Sun Oct 20, 2013 3:45 pm

Not especially rare or valuable, but there's something about this one that I like a lot. Plenty of patina and signs of use through the years. Just back from Jack at IWW, where it got a new case tube and screw down crown. He also relumed the hands to match the markers. And dig the cool name - Waikiki. Anyone else with a vintage Silvana?

Never seen a Silvana diver, but that's a nice one. Jack did a great job on the hands (of course).
