The watch is from the late sixties and it does not have radium hands or radium dial. The production of radium watch parts stop during 1960.
Hey Enicaristi, please support my project and share your Enicar Graph serial number with me, so the knowledge can grow. Just use the contact formular to get in touch with me or write at [email protected]. VINTAGE Enicar automatic watch. Click watch abovemore detail will appear Here is a vintage, 1970’s new old stock (nos) unused vintage, automatic winding Enicar watch from a jewelers’ estate! The interesting, hexagonal case is 38mm. At the widest by 41.5mm. Long, having shimmering, polished bezel and sides, with stainless steel screw back.
Even if the watch had radium parts it would not be dangerous for you. It is only dangerous if you somehow breathed in the radium dust into your lungs. The watch is Swiss made (Switzerland) by the Enicar Company.
It’s hard to say if the watch has been relumed just by watching the pictures you sent, but it seems it hasn't, the condition of the watch is very good, but then again Enicar made great watches the lasts for a long time. Your watchband is not original but it’s a nice one.
Kind regards The watching John. Hi, Sorry for botherin you, but i see your comments have become something o an Enicar encylopedia. I recently inherited my grandfathers Enicar watch. On the back it's printed 100/67/ACGS, Antimagnetic Incabloc, Swiss made and waterproof automatic. Thi is printed in the 'leafes' of a stylized, barely visible clover with the Enicar-logo in the middle.
I'mno certain about the first marking, because the wear has made it difficult to make out, There is also an 18K gold stamp. On the dial it has the logo Ultrasonic, automatic, 17 jewels and Swiss made. Pcture of the face: I'd really like to know what movement this has, and when it was made (ca.) if you would happen to have enough information to make a qualified guess. Hi i dont know if anyone will be able to help me my father has given me his Enicar Ultrasonic Gold Watch which he was given when he was 18 by his parents (about 1961) and for insurance reasons i am wondering if anyone would know the value of it? Basic description is:- Gold case, gold coloured dial and hands, manual 17jewels, the Enicar Ultrasonic logo appears below the 12 it has no numbers but has battons ( and ) to denote the numbers, the back of the case i assume is stainless steel but in the middle of it, it has the Enicar logo inside a resin/glass disc counter sunk into the stainless steel back.
I hope someone can give me an idea of the value as i dont want to take a jewellers and them tell me a crock of lies, i dont wish to sell it but want the right amount to insure it. In 1967 I was travelling in Europe for the first time and my travels took me to Berne which at that time was the location of many watch factories. I decided to acquire a Swiss watch that I had purchased at the factory. My first choice would not sell direct but the second was Enicar. When they asked what I was looking for I suggested an alarm watch and they were happy to oblige.
I still have the watch and it is almost identical to the one on this site except that it did not have a strap as per the photo and the original is long gone. The alarm watch was always costly for cleaning and after a decade or so the watch moved to a souvenier box. I had it overhauled a few months ago as a active souvenier. The watch repair person noted that the crystal was a new space age material at the time: Lexan. Hello, I'm really excited about this blog because I've just got my father's Enicar watch and I do not know too much about it. My father died 25 years ago and since then the watch was in a drawer.
It occured to me a month ago and I asked for it from my mother. When I received I thought that it was a cheap watch because I had never heard about this brand before. I was really surprised when I saw the internet that this is a famous brand with really good watches. I would really appreciate if you could send me some details about my watch.
My watch was bought by my father around 1975. On the dial I can read the following: Enicar Aqua Graph (on the top), T Swiss (at the bottom under each other with very small letters). On the back in the middle: Sherpa 300 (with a picture), and around: Enicar Ultrasonic Brevet+ 314962 Sherpa Stainless Steel Incabloc Swiss; and under all: 072-02-02 A. I sent some pictures to you via email. I hope you received them. If not please let me know. Thank You very much!
Arpad from Hungary. Anonymous said. My dad bought me a gold plated Enicar watch in 1969 when I was 21. Sadly he died the following year when he was 73. So I have a strong connection with the watch which I have worn every day since. It has never stopped working and has never had to be mended.
It may have been cleaned once or twice however. We were on The QM2 transatlantic in November 2014 and 5 minutes before we disembarked in New York the plastic face fell off. It had been Force 8 throughout the voyage so the movement of the ship probably loosened it!
It doesn't look great with sellotape. But its still going! I am after some information on an Enicar watch. It belonged to my dad who died in 1987, it is gold coloured and says on the dial Enicar ultrasonic 17 jewels. There are no numbers on the dial just gold lines at every hour mark and a double line for the 12 o'clock position. It also has a second hand between the six o'clock position and the centre of the dial with a domed like glass, the face is an off white with an almost textured look. On the back it says antimagnetic Swiss and 100/142 with an L and another letter that could be a P or R it's hard to tell.
I would just like to know more about the watch, I can't find another like it on the Internet.
Dial: Original Enicar Sherpa Guide tritium dial Hands: Original hands with racing gmt and red second sweep hand Insert: Original World Timer red triangle insert Crown: Original signed logo crowns Model: 6202 (Brevet + stamped case clearly visible) Case-back: Original with correct I.54, 6202 stamped Size: 43mm Lug width: 22mm Reference: 148-35-01A Serial number: 1331505 Year: 1960's Bracelet: Strap shown in photos No box or papers. Watch is winding smooth and running well. Notes: For your consideration is an Enicar Sherpa Guide 600 GMT in amazing condition.
Generally speaking these do not age well, so this one is rare to see with such a great dial and hands. If you have never handled one of these in person you should know the watch is big! Its amazing how Enicar decided to go with a large compressor case in the 60's and we absolutely love it.
The design and function of this watch is unmatched with its beautiful colors, dual color inner rotating 24hr bezel and its wild world timer bezel with a red triangle. The hands are super cool with its red pointed sweep seconds and its wild checkered gmt hand.
Both crowns are signed and the case-back has Enicar's signature clamshell. Enicar really hit a home run with the design, function and size with this Sherpa Guide 600 GMT and the company paid attention to all the details we love in a vintage watch.
