1960s Enicar Sherpa Guide 600

Why This Watch Matters

The Enicar Sherpa Guide is one of those ultimate tool watches with a great color scheme.

The Full Story

The Enicar Sherpa Guide is way more than a GMT watch. It has a GMT hand and a 24-hour inner rotating bezel, but both are complemented by an external rotating bezel with a red ring that allows its wearer to select their city of reference. As such, wherever you are, you can easily read the time in just one look. This watch utilizes the familiar contrast of blue and red of course, against black bezel and dial. Though we wouldn't recommend taking it swimming, the screw-back waterproof case offers reassurance for future travels.

What we Love and What You Should Know

This watch is in good condition with some light signs of wear. The tritium lume plots and dial show some signs of age, however the hour markers and handset have aged at the same rate and have a caramel color to them. Overall, this is a cool vintage Enicar GMT.
