1960s U.S. Divers Co. "Aqua-Lung" Skin Diver

Founded in the early 20th century and with a focus on simple, tool-like aquatic designs, U.S. Diver quickly became a brand name with synonymous with underwater exploration

Introduced in the early 1960s, the reference 1573-66, exemplifies the classically simple design elements that define a true dive watch. With a robust stainless steel case, unidirectional rotating bezel, and luminous tritium markers, the 1573-66 was built with basic yet distinct functionality in mind.

Photographed here, our capitvating 1960s U.S. Diver Skin Diver, reference 1573-66, has an appeal that only a ‘60s diver with a period (original) Tropic rubber strap can have. From the tritium markers to the rich black dial, this quintessential dive tool is, without a doubt, a true piece of horological history—and a rare one at that!
