| Description/Comments: | |
| Here is a peculiar looking, rectangular shaped, Space Age designed, Swiss made Sicura. The raised sea blue colored crystal with it's off-centered and very small sized (8MM circumference) circular timing dial make this watch a peculiarity for sure. It is in absolutely mint cosmetic and working condition. | |

| The case is manufactured in two parts (a brush finished aluminum front piece and a stainless steel back piece.) The overall measurements are 1 7/16" across (including the crown) and 1" wide (lug to lug.) It is 1/4" thick.

| Dial: | |
| The dial is actually a silver tone color but appears to be a sea blue color due to the color of the crystal. It is marked Elegance, Sicura, 17 Jewels, Swiss Made and Incabloc. There is a solid silver colored horizontal line running the length of the dial, but interrupted by the off-centered timing dial. The hour and minute hands are very small and black in color. The off-center and round timing dial is silver in color with straight black lines indicating the hours. The circumference of the entire timing dial is only 8MM. The crystal is a sea blue color and rectangular shaped echoing the case design. It is raised 4MM up from the surface of the case. It measures 1 1/8" x 7/16." All four edges have a 45 degree taper on them. | |
