"Francisco Amphibian" help please?


Recommended Posts

My Father has come across a watch he's never seen before.  Knowing I tinker, learn and hobby, he's asked me for help but I can find nothing.  I'll quote the Old Boy:

"It says it's a Franciso Amphibian and it looks like a diver watch.  It has a screw-down crown, a screw-on back and three faces, all on the left. It's mechanical and possibly automatic.  The face is grey".

I'm not seeing him for a bit but should be able to attach photo's later this evening.

I can find "Amphibia" watches, but nothing "Francisco"?

I've attached a couple more pic, just for interest; this time of the mechanism.  I know the engraving hasn't shown well but it reads (through a magnifier)

Moricka, Tokei Inc, No Jewels, Japan - and some other stuff that's too faint to see.

Not heard of this one before?
