FOR YOUR EYES ONLY IS A FUNKY LATE 60s WAKMANN VALJOUX 730 TRIPLE DATE “JUMBO”
-
CASE: HEFTY CASE MEASURING 39mm ACROSS NOT INCLUDING ORIGINAL SIGNED CROWN. REALLY IMPRESSIVE WRIST PRESENCE ON THIS GUY.
-
DIAL: ONE OF THE BEST CHRONOGRAPH DIALS IN THE VINTAGE MARKET, HANDS DOWN. CHECK OUT THE GROOVY REVERSE TRICOMPAX PANDA SETUP. LOVELY MATTE DIAL WITH WHITE/STEEL MARKERS. SOME LOVELY PATINA ON THE SILVERY WHITE SUBDIALS AND A MILD STAIN AT 12. THIS THING LOOKS NICE. I LOVE ALL THE HANDS AND WINDOWS WHICH GIVES THIS A COMPLICATED YET TOTALLY BALANCED LOOK. I’M A BIG FAN OF THE WHITE TIPPED STEEL HANDS WHICH GIVES THIS SOME SPORTY FLAIR.
-
MOVEMENT: THIS GROOVY CHRONO IS POWERED BY A 17J WAKMANN SIGNED VALJOUX 730 TICKING UNDER THE HOOD. ALL FUNCTIONS WORK PERFECTLY AND WATCH HAS BEEN KEEPING TIME MONITORED FOR DAYS UPON DAYS OF ON/OFF WRIST OBSERVATION.
- THIS WAKMANN IS MOUNTED ON A HIGH QUALITY PERFORATED BLACK LEATHER STRAP WHICH LOOKS SUPER SUAVE ON THIS GUY. THIS IS THE EPITOME OF LATE 60s SWASHBUCKLING. THERE’S JUST SOMETHING SO SATISFYING ABOUT THESE. I LOVE THESE JUMBO VARIANTS WHICH WEAR VERY MODERN. THIS IS A MUST-HAVE FOR ANY SERIOUS CHRONO COLLECTOR.
