1970s Waltham Day-Date Diver Reference B-383

Why This Watch Matters This Waltham Day-Date Diver screams 1970s with its cushion-shaped case with orange and black color motif. The Full Story Here we have an interesting Waltham from the 1970s. It has a unique squarish-cushion shaped case with rotating black and orange bezel, as well as a checkered-flag style dial. Even though the case has a cushion shape, the sunken round bezel adds a pronounced circular appearance, giving the wearer the best of both worlds. The colors on this watch are perfect for the upcoming fall season: It has black, orange, blue, and creamy yellow lume layered over a silver dial. On paper, this combination almost seems like too much, but the colors come together really nicely giving for a lovely funky yet subdued aesthetic. This example is overall very nice with all matching lume and a clean dial. This watch is a conversation starter for sure.
