FOR SALE IS A MEGA GROOVY EARLY 70s FRECO PLONGEUER SUPERCOMPRESSOR IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
- CASE: SHARP CUSHION ALL-STEEL COMPRESSOR CASE MADE BY EPSA IN NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION MEASURING A ROBUST 36.5mm ACROSS CASE NOT INCLUDING ORIGINAL CROSS-HATCHED CROWNS BY 42mm LUG TO LUG. SOME MINOR SCUFFS, AND LIGHT SCRATCHES, BUT IN REALLY WELL PRESERVED CONDITION. SOME CASE OPENING MARKS ON THR CASEBACK BUT ALL THE PRINT IS HIGHLY LEGIBLE.
- DIAL: BOLD AND BADASS DIVER DIAL IN SEMI-MATTE BLACK FINISH WITH WHITE PRINT. I LOVE THAT CAFE AU LAIT AGED LUME WHICH MATCHES THE TRITIUM ON THOSE LONG STEEL STICK HANDS. THE INTERNAL DIVE BEZEL IS FINISHED IN S MATCHING MATTE BLACK FINISH WHICH MATCHES NICELY WITH THE DIAL. BEZEL ROTATES WITH THE PERFECT AMOUNT OF FRICTION BY TURNING THE TOP CROWN..
- MOVEMENT: THIS FRECO RUNS ON A 25 JEWEL SWISS AUTOMATIC WHICH WINDS SMOOTHLY AND KEEPS GOOD TIME. DATE IS SEMI-QUICKSET. THIS ONE IS A SOLID RUNNER!
WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A PERIOD APPROPRIATE ALL STEEL BAMBI BRACELET WHICH CAN ACCOMMODATE UP TO A 7.25" WRIST. IF THIS DIVER LOOKS FAMILIAR TO YOU ITS BECAUSE IT USES THE SAME CASE AND SIMILAR DIAL AND HANDSET AS THE JAEGER LECOULTRE MASTER MARINER DEEP SEA FROM THE LATE 60s/EARLY 70s. EVERY COLLECTION NEEDS AN EPSA CASED SUPERCOMPRESSOR, AND THIS IS A TOTALLY RAD SPECIMEN!
