About this entry

80% of key specs known. Missing: hardening, AR coating, bracelet offered.

Bronze Fifty Fathoms "No Radiations"-style diver with the yellow and red no-radiation emblem at 6. It shares the SHY039's specs but has its own model code in the spec list (the SHY039 has a humidity indicator instead). Brand specs: Japan NH35A automatic, CuSn8 tin bronze case, 316L screw-down caseback, 120-click unidirectional ceramic bezel, domed ("pot cover") sapphire, 200m, Swiss C3 green lume, screw-down crown, 40mm without crown, 50.4mm lug-to-lug, 14.2mm including the crystal, 20mm band, 78g including the band. The photos show a striped nylon strap (not described) and no date window, so the NH35's date is recorded as hidden. AR coating is not stated. Price 99 with logo and 89 without (both crossed out from 09). First listed on Thorn's store in January 2024.
