1960's Glycine "Blue Ghost" Diver - Automatic

This 1960s “Blue Ghost” diver from Glycine is a striking example of the bold tool watches that emerged during the golden age of diving. Built for both durability and legibility, it captures the adventurous spirit of the era when recreational diving and underwater exploration were rapidly gaining popularity.

The watch earns its nickname from the cool-toned blue dial, which gives it a distinctive presence compared to the more common black-dial divers of the time. The dial is designed with strong contrast and clear markers, ensuring excellent readability — a hallmark of true dive watch design.

The case has that classic 1960s diver profile: robust yet balanced, with proportions that still wear comfortably today. Paired with an automatic movement, the watch winds itself with the natural motion of the wrist, delivering both convenience and the mechanical charm collectors appreciate.

Founded in 1914, Glycine developed a reputation for producing reliable Swiss tool watches, and vintage divers from the brand have become increasingly sought after by enthusiasts.
