Girard-Perregaux EPSA 1970s Super-Compressor Deep Diver NOS PVD 43mm 200m Auto
Girard-PerregauxFor auction is a very rare 1970s Girard-Perregaux Deep Diver EPSA case PVD and stainless steel 43mm New Old Stock automatic vintage diver. A watch that just does not come up for sale in general but to add in new old stock still with caseback plastic it is something extraordinary. The EPSA case is big and beautiful with among the earliest application of PVD coating; the black is accentuated by the steel polished bevels on the case side and the steel crowns. For a vintage EPSA or GP collector this is a watch not to be passed over because when this is gone it might be many years before another example surfaces.
