Looks like O-man has bitten by the Vintage Watch Bug.  Favre-Leuba was a high end company back then and were considered to be on par with Longines,Eterna,Movado,E.Gubelin,Omega and Universal Geneve. Congratulations and I love the patina,it adds character to the watch. Cheers, Simon

Thanks Guys for your kind words. Simons actualy I've been an avid vintage collector for sometime now. As for F.L. this company has a long an prestigous history starting in 1737, when the name was registered.

Favre-Leuba are highly prized watches in full working order. I enjoy looking at the Caliber 253 17 Jewel movement of your 1965 Sea King. The Twin Power that Favre-Leuba once made were quite astonishing. Those vintage watches had 50 hours power reserve. Cheers, Simon

One intresting thing about these movements is the fact that the screws are the same throughout the movements thus macking them very easy to service, even for a no novice like me :)
