History of Dacor
The Dacor watch company was a well know Swiss brand producing high quality watches with their heyday being the 1960’s and 1970’s. They bought in other companies movements, dials and cases and branded them as their own, most famously (as they were predominantly a Dive watch company) their affiliation with Blancpain, using their cases, movements and dials in the Dacor Bathyscaphe.
Although relatively unknown now when new they were premium quality Swiss watches and although they sold very small numbers compared to the big manufactures like Breitling, Omega and Rolex the quality was equally as good.
The Dacor Divers Watch 600 feet Stainless Steel is the watch model worn by Mike Hynson in the 1966 classic The Endless Summer.
Titus also made co-branded Calypsomatic models for Dacor but they are not gilt and have mercedes hands.
