Up for sale is a classic piece of dive watch history: the 1975 Caravelle by Bulova "Sea Hunter Devil Diver." Known for its cheeky "666 Feet" water resistance rating on the dial, this watch earned its nickname as Bulova’s answer to the professional divers of the era. This specific model features the sought-after N5 date code, marking its production year as 1975.
This is the "watch head only" listing—perfect for a collector who wants to pair it with a custom leather strap, a vintage Tropic rubber strap, or a stainless steel mesh bracelet.
