Condition Report
The watch is in Grade B condition, with visible signs according to age. The chromed case shows scratches, marks and plating wear, especially around the case edges and lugs, consistent with a vintage tool watch. The external bezel shows age-related wear but remains very attractive, with city names such as New York, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Sydney, Paris, Cairo, Los Angeles and others. The mineral glass shows traces of use. The black dial has a strong vintage character, with aged luminous-style markers, large arrow-style minute hand, 24-hour scale, date at 3 o’clock with magnifier and a very distinctive SuperDatomatic layout. Water resistance has not been tested and is not guaranteed.

Story & Heritage
Mortima watches are appreciated by collectors for their adventurous vintage designs, especially the large sports and diver-style models from the period when bold mechanical tool watches became symbols of exploration, travel and utility. The SuperDatomatic line perfectly reflects this spirit, combining a robust presence with practical scales, luminous readability and a design made to stand out.

This particular example has a strong world-traveller personality: the rotating city bezel evokes the golden age of international travel, while the inner rotating scale and tachymeter-style markings give the watch a technical, instrument-like character. With its oversized case, black dial, dual-crown configuration and aged patina, this Mortima SuperDatomatic is a beautiful vintage piece full of charm and collector appeal.
