Sherpa is a new watch brand that is dedicated to reviving '60s and '70s-era sports watches. Interestingly, the company derives its name from the now-defunct watchmaker Enicar, who produced a popular series of timepieces called the Sherpa line.
Now, Sherpa has announced the launch of two new timepieces with names lifted directly from Enicar's catalog: the Ultradive and the OPS. Both of the revived models feature 40 mm cases equipped with a rotating inner diver's bezel, redesigned MONO FLEX compressor crowns, a sapphire box crystal, and EPSA-STOP bayonet compressor case back.
In addition, these vintage-inspired timepieces are being offered in two styles -- steel or DLC black-coated steel -- and come equipped with Sherpa's in-house movement, the Mantramatic MM01 automatic.
