In July 1958 the US Navy Experimental Diving Unit reported on the performance of the Seapearl 600 watch as several of its members were already using this model. It compared the Seapearl 600 to the Blancpain 50 Fathoms Milspec 1 and the Rolex.
The Seapearl 600 was favourably recommended for situations where no rotating bezel was required. The broad second hand was considered of value.
