1970s Enicar Chronograph
This vintage 1970s Enicar chronograph is a bold and distinctive timepiece from one of Switzerland’s most innovative mid-century watchmakers. Powered by the reliable Valjoux 72 manual-wind movement (famously used in the Rolex Daytona) this model features a robust stainless steel case, tachymeter bezel, and colorful dial accents typical of Enicar’s daring design language during the era. Enicar gained prominence in the 1950s and '60s for its tool watches, including the Sherpa line, worn on Himalayan expeditions. By the 1970s, Enicar embraced sportier aesthetics and cutting-edge functionality, producing chronographs that remain highly collectible today. This piece is a testament to the brand’s adventurous spirit and technical precision.
