THE WATCH
There is something particularly appealing about vintage Enicar. Once a highly regarded Swiss manufacturer, the brand produced some of the most distinctive sports and everyday watches of the 1950s and ’60s – with the Sherpa line sitting at the heart of its golden era.
This Ultrasonic Sherpa Date, ref. 100/116 BaCNS, captures that period beautifully. Clean, restrained and unmistakably mid-century, it combines classic proportions with a practical date complication and the charming details collectors look for.
Of particular note is the original crown, complete with Enicar’s distinctive serrated Saturn logo – a small but important detail that adds considerably to the character of the watch.
While Enicar’s famous Sherpa divers and chronographs have become increasingly collectible, these quieter Sherpa models remain something of a connoisseur’s choice: proper vintage Swiss watchmaking, plenty of history, and a design that still feels remarkably fresh today.
