IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A VINTAGE, LARGE SIZE, CHRONOGRAPH, THIS IS IT.  A VERY NICE CONDITION JUMBO SIZE BREITLING CHRONOMAT CHRONO-MATIC 2 REGISTERS CHRONO WITH DATE.

An intelligent instrument: THE NAVITIMER ...the "watch" is passive while the "chrono" is active.  The Navitimer copes with all the calculations that might be needed during aerial navigation, car rallies or yachting. It multiplies, divides, calculates averages, enables you to convert kilometeres into knots or miles, and vice versa.....

D: Original BLACK dial with lots of details, signed "BREITLING GENEVE CHRONOMAT CHRONO-MATIC" with DATE at 6:00 o'clock position.  Original Hands set. 

C: Original Case measures 47mm excluding crown, fully signed and hallmarked: BREITLING AUTOMATIC DDE.BR.+ 11525/67, 1808, 1317824, STAINLESS STEEL-SWISS MADE-ANTIMAGNETIC SHOCK RESISTANT WATER RESISTANT.  Original Breitling Signed Crown. Case with light signs of wear.

M: Original Breitling signed Automatic movement keeps accurate time.

A very handsome looking jumbo size Breitling chronograph. Of all chronographs, it is the one that most resembles an "instrument panel".

Memosail Valjoux 7737 COLORFUL Yacht Chronograph Watch, 1970s.

D: Original dial with various details.  Before the start of a sailboat race, there are two guns, the first gun signals that the race will start in 10 minutes. At the 10-minute gun the sailors start their count down functions and maneuver their boats as close to the start line as possible for the start. The countdown numbers are large so the skipper can instantly see how much time has elapsed. The countdown chronograph is very unusual in that it is a wheel beneath the dial much like a date wheel. In the stopped position, the wheel displays "START". When the chronograph is activated with the pusher at 2 o'clock, the timer begins and the orange sweep hand is set into action. At 30 seconds, the wheel does a half turn and at 60 seconds it does a full turn to indicate 1 minute of elapsed time. The number 10 will also come into view on the wheel, which is the first minute that has elapsed of the 10-minute countdown. This will continue for 10 minutes until the wheel has fully revolved, and countdown passes the 1 minute mark and the race begins. The first 5 minutes of the wheel are yellow with black numbers, and the last five minutes are red with white numbers. It can also be used for a 15-minute timer as the word "START" is broken up into 5 letters, which can be used as a 15-minute countdown.

C: Original large stainless steel with snap back, fully signed and hallmarked by Universal.  Original Flat pushers. Size 37x40x42mm.

M: Original valjoux 7737 movement keeps accurate time and works properly.

Edouard Heuer was passionate about precision. When he founded his workshop in 1860, he had only one aim: taking time measurement to greater heights. Since then, the company has always been in the avant-garde of watchmaking, whether in terms of technology, the choice of materials or design.   To mark its 125th Jubliee Anniversary, the group launched a series of nice timepieces including this rare and nice complicated moonphases/date chronograph Model ref:188.205. Circa 1980s.

The Flying Officer -
"The Watch that Helped our Allied Forces Win World War II".   With the ability to calculate changes in time zones as a pilot crossed over lines of  longitude, the Flying Officer is one of the most renowned and respected  military use timepieces ever created. The original Flying Officer model evolved directly from the world famous Gallet MultiChron, the first fully waterproof wrist worn chronograph. A rotating 12 hour bezel and dial indications for the world's major cities was added to the MultiChron, making it possible to easily calculate changes in the time as an aircraft flew across lines of longitude. Developed upon specific request by United States Air Force, this ground breaking new timepiece was issued exclusively to pilots of the allied forces who flew the missions to our victory during WWII. After the war, the Flying Officer became the watch of choice for both commercial and private aviators across the globe.
 
Guess what?  The 33rd US president Harry S Truman had one of this Gallet Flying Officer Chronograph too!!!  

His piece as well as 30 watches and clocks from 20 past presidents ranging from George Washington to Gerald Ford, are currently on display at the National Watch and Clock Museum, Columbia, Pennsylvania.

ZENITH 1920s PERFECT ENAMEL DIAL
CHRONOGRAPH, SPECIAL LUGS


                                                                                        click pic to view more pics  >>
**Enameling is a unique genre of the fine arts. It begins when a special vitreous material is melted in a kiln at a temperature of circa 1,200 degree Celsius, followed by cold shock procedure called quenching before it is mixed with fine enamel powder and applied evenly onto a thoroughly cleaned metal substrate. Afterwards, the object is fired in a special kiln at temperatures ranging between 800 and 900 degree Celsius.  Enamel's peculiar vulnerability to flaws at this phase in the work results from the surface tensions which arise during this stage of the manufacturing process. ALL THESE WERE DONE BY HAND !! Considering the extraordinary high percentage of imperfect specimens which emerge from the kiln, it is little wonder that enamel dials are comparatively costly and that watches equipped with such dials, especially those with PERFECT DIALS are precious rarities.

** Nowadays, most watch dials are made of metal, which has been processed, galvanized and printed in numerous production stages.  But long ago, watch dials were frequently crafted from a material that has since lapsed into near oblivion: enamel.

Enameling is a unique genre of the fine arts. It begins when a special vitreous material is melted in a kiln at a temperature of circa 1,200 degree Celsius, followed by cold shock procedure called quenching before it is mixed with fine enamel powder and applied evenly onto a thoroughly cleaned metal substrate. Afterwards, the object is fired in a special kiln at temperatures ranging between 800 and 900 degree Celsius.  Enamel's peculiar vulnerability to flaws at this phase in the work results from the surface tensions which arise during this stage of the manufacturing process. ALL THESE WERE DONE BY HAND !! Considering the extraordinary high percentage of imperfect specimens which emerge from the kiln, it is little wonder that enamel dials are comparatively costly and that watches equipped with such dials, especially those with COLORFUL DIALS (like this HIGH LIFE), are precious rarities.

Its beauty and attraction are so irresistible !!!

IWC INGENIEUR
CHRONOGRAPH REF:3725

 


Although there used to be an Ingenieur with a stopwatch function, what has never existed before is one with a fully fledged mechanical chronograph. Now, all that has changed with the arrival of THIS Ingenieur Chronograph from IWC, with its automatic 79350 calibre chronograph movement, small seconds hand with stop function and a chronograph with a central seconds hand and 30-minute counter. It has everything you would expect of a precision timepiece. And because the 4 Hz movement is able to display times to an accuracy of one-eighth of a second.

Another example of the watch's high-tech design is the outstanding reliability of the timing functions. This is guaranteed by the push buttons, which are an integral part of the case. Despite these additional features, the Ingenieur Chronograph is as pure a piece of traditional watchmaking as you could wish to find.

Designed by GERALD GENTA.

D:  Original dial with 2 registers.   Subsidiary Seconds register at 6:00 position, 30 minutes chrono register at 12:00 position. Original Luminous s/steel hands set.

EXTREMELY RARE HEUER
TRIPLDATE CALENDAR CHRONOGRAPH
VALJOUX 72C

The search and demand for vintage HEUER watches has increased tremendously over the last few years. Especially since the “HEUER only” themed successful auction held by Sotheby which has resulted in HEUER now being taken seriously as a highly collectible brand which is relentlessly pursued and sought after by serious collectors in the watch world.

This is a very rare and highly sought after vintage Valjoux 723(a.k.a 72C)
HEUER CARRERA 12 DATO REF:2547S Tripledate/calendar chronograph Circa 1964.

It has the look closely approximate the Vintage Rolex Model Ref: 6236, which is the vintage version of triplecalendar chronograph from Rolex which also used the SAME Valjoux movement. But of course the price of the ROLEX version is astronomical (more than US$100,000) now !!!!!    Thus the potential value appreciation of this HEUER version cannot and should not be under-estimated.
 

C:  Housed in a very good ORIGINAL UNPOLISHED condition FULL Stainless Steel Original case with snapback. ONLY VERY Light signs of wear on the case. No major dent or scratch. As a serious collector myself, I am reluctant to have it polished in order to maintain its UNTOUCHED, UN-ABUSED Original condition and will leave it to the new owner to decide. But seriously, it is nothing major and you would probably agree with me when you receive the item.

The LARGE Case measures 36mm excluding crown, 39 including and 42mm from lug to lug. Original Heuer signed crown and original round water proof pushers.
The reference number in between the lugs is 437147.  Inner case back is signed HEUER LEONIDAS SA SWISS STAINLESS STEEL.


D: I personally love the ORIGINAL silvered dial with 30 minute, 12 hour and subsidiary second registers. Apertures for Day and Month, outer Date Graduation with applied Steel Markers. The dial is in EXCELLENT Condition with ONLY VERY VERY Light signs of wear. All details are fully legible and clear as can be seen from the pictures.

Original luminous steel hands with original date pointer with blue Crescent tip. If you have not noticed, the sunken effect of the date graduation projects the middle part of the watch to a higher level and gives it a slight 3D effect that separates the date function from the chronograph's. Well thought through design ideas.

The watch has a very CLASSIC design that is simple looking on the outside yet you know it is technologically sophisticated and complicated on the inside. Perfect for serious collector who has it but do not like to flaunt it.

M: Original mechanical winding movement signed HEUER-LEONIDAS SA, SEVENTEEN 17 Jewels, Cal. 723 (Valjoux) a.k.a 72c, "c" for calendar. Shock Protection, Incabloc i.e. shockproof. SAME Movement used on ROLEX Model Ref: 6236 !!!

GALLET BABY CHRONOGRAPH
WORLD'S SMALLEST !!!!

 

An extremely RARE and COLLECTIBLE Chronograph by GALLET.  Introduced in the 1940s,  mainly for lady collectors and affectionately referred to by many as BABY Chronograph because of its smaller size... in fact it is the world's smallest !!

When these were launched, they were too complicated for the ladies as they were going for the dressier cocktail style watches.  The demand was not great then, thus the number produced was very small, making them VERY rare and scarce these days.

The time has changed.  More and more lady collectors now want something COMPLICATED on their wrists.  Why not strap this beautiful baby on your wrist for a change??   As it is a vintage, it is very unlikely that anyone else in your office or your social circle would have the same piece!!!  Wear this and see how your friends or fellow collectors will react. A SURE CONVERSATION PIECE !!!! So, when they are showing off their BIG Chronos, you tell them, mine is the world's smallest !!!  Try to match that.

C: VERY GOOD Good condition original stainless steel 3 piece case (diameter 29mm) with snap back.  Inner snap back case is signed "GALLET & CO SWISS AXIER INOXYDABLE".  Original Good condition dual functions square pushers start, stop and reset properly. 

D: Good condition complicated dial with charming patina. 2 registers AND SPIRAL TACHOMETER SCALE. Subsidiary Second register at 9:00 position, 45 minutes chrono register at 3:00 position. Blued steel luminous hands set ORIGINAL to the watch. The hands together with the details on the dial & Luminous numerals provide a very nice contrast over the dial.

M: Original Special formed OVAL shape 17 Jewels Mechanical winding movement signed GALLET & CO, SWISS.  These special formed movements were made by a movement company called EXCELSIOR PARK for GALLET.  The movement has just been professionally serviced and timed.  The watch keeps perfect time and all chronograph functions work properly. 

Fitted with a brand new yellow leather strap that matches the dial perfectly. Presented in our in house brand new unused watch box for your collection.  THE WORLD'S SMALLEST CHRONOGRAPH !!! SO NICE AND CUTE THAT IT IS HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER EVEN BY MALE COLLECTORS.   ME TOO, AS I HAVE THREE OF THESE BABY CHRONOS IN MY HUMBLE COLLECTION !!!

GOLAY FILS & STAHL TRAVELIING POCKET WATCH WITH CHRONOGRAPH 1930/40s

I AM SURE YOU MUST HAVE SEEN MANY WATCHES/CLOCKS MADE FOR TRAVELLING PURPOSES ...Such as the MOVADO ERMETO, BUCHERER ETC THAT WILL FIT INTO YOUR POCKET EASILY WHEN YOU ARE ON THE GO AND CAN BE DISPLAYED ON THE SIDE TABLE OF THE HOTELS YOU CHECKED IN. 

BUT MOST OF THEM ARE WITHOUT CHRONOGRAPH FUNCTION. THIS PARTICULAR VINTAGE TIMEPIECE CIRCA 1940s STANDS OUT FROM THE "CROWD", SO TO SPEAK....AS IT IS THE FIRST ITEM THAT CAUGHT MY EYES AMONGST THE MANY ITEMS MY DEALER FRIEND SHOWED ME.    THE FIRST OF ITS KIND I HAVE SEEN, ESPECIALLY WITH CHRONOGRAPH, AND THE REGISTERS ARE UP/DOWN AT 6:00 & 12:00.  ORIGINAL CONDITION THROUGHOUT.

C : Original Stainless steel SQUARE Case with four screws at the side and is upholstered in its original leather case with a hinged cover which serves two purposes, 1.  to protect the watch when you have it in the pocket. 2. to let it stand upright when you need to place it on the table... Original crown and chronograph pusher.

Watch case measures 35mm x 35mm excluding crown.  Leather case measures 60mm by 44mm.

D: Original 2 tone silver/grey dial aged evenly with nice patina, very charming, indeed.  Love the layout of the dial especially the large numbers, 3 & 9 with straight line markers. So clear and simple.  Not to mention the 2 tone effect which enhances the profile of the chronograph registers. The register at 12:00 records the time lapsed upto 30 minutes and the one at 6:00 shows the constant seconds hand.  Original blued steel hands. Look at the extra broad hour and minute hands !!!  Some serious considerations have been put in on the design table...

M: High grade manual winding Swiss made SINGLE BUTTON chronograph movement in very clean condition.   Watch keeps good time. Chronograph functions work accordingly.

Take a look at how this special watch was assembled in the unusual leather case.  All original screws of equal length and parts are intact.  The metal pieces are all numbered 24487 !!!   Even the Leather case is signed 24487!!  100% Original.

ANOTHER VERY RARE & INTERESTING EARLY CHRONOGRAPH FOR SERIOUS COLLECTOR WHO GOES FOR UNUSUAL THINGS THAT NOT MANY HAVE... DISPLAY IT ON YOUR TABLE AND SEE WHAT YOUR FRIENDS WILL SAY......I ALREADY CAN SEE SOME OF YOU UTTERING TO YOURSELVES: "HOW CAN I TURN IT INTO SOMETHING I CAN WEAR ON THE WRIST?" WELL GIVEN ITS SQUARE SHAPE THAT LOOKS LIKE BELL & ROSS' INSTRUMENT COLLECTION, IT IS NOT HARD TO IMAGING HOW IT WILL LOOK ON YOUR WRIST OR ON THE TABLE......

For me, what makes this watch so great are its many complications!!! Six hands and three discs make the following functions possible:

  1. Hour of the day--12 hrs
  2. Minute of the hour
  3. Subsidiary seconds hand
  4. Chronograph 30 Minute register with Jumping hand
  5. Chronograph Hour register with 12 hour capacity
  6. Day of the Week window
  7. Month of the Year window
  8. Date aperture at 4:00
  9. Moon phase indication.

Other than perpetual calendar function (which will cost you astronomically), this timepiece is probably as complicated as one can get and the  functions are all within a watch case which you can wear on your wrist.

 

 



MOVADO ASTRONIC HS360 SUPER SUB SEA CHRONO
 

Vintage 1970s MOVADO ASTRONIC HS 360 , 31 JEWELS , SUPER SUB SEA Tripledate Moonphase Chronograph.  Circa 1972.

As you are probably aware, ZENITH has an exact model named ESPADA with similar features.  This is because Zenith and Movado were sister companies in the 1960's-70's.  As evidenced in one of the pictures, with a product tagline  "MOVADO -  A ZENITH TIME PRODUCT".

I understand that according to the Zenith archives; only 200 of these were ever produced:  100 Movado Astronics and 100 Zenith Espadas....  So this is a very desirable and hard to find complicated timepiece, the value of which will only appreciate over time.  Be ONE OF THE ONLY FEW in the world to own this beautiful timepiece now !!!!!
