This vintage Burgana Super Waterproof is a classic Swiss-made dive-style wristwatch from the 1960s-70s, powered by a 23-jewel Swiss automatic movement. Currently non-functional, it is offered as a project for restoration or parts harvesting, with a rotating bezel, dual crowns, and a black luminous dial that retain the bold dive-tool aesthetic of the era.

Swiss 23-Jewel Project Diver
The watch is fitted with a 23-jewel Swiss automatic movement, currently non-functional and requiring service. The dual-crown configuration suggests an inner-rotating-bezel or compressor-style design typical of 1960s-70s dive watches; the function of the lower crown is unspecified. The outer rotating bezel turns but no longer clicks into place, indicating wear in the bezel mechanism.
