History:
In 1956 a team of Swiss Mountaineers and Sherpas ascended Mount Everest, on their wrist the Enicar Seapearl. Capitalising on the media attention surrounding this ascent, Enicar added the Sherpa moniker to their watches.
The Sherpa series quickly met a real success so that Enicar proposed « Sherpa Â» watches in more than fifty variations.
This Super Dive, one of the fist Sherpa models, is very researched for its design and its large dial. Prices increase since few years already.
