COMING AT YOU IS A PROVOCATIVE FRENCH MADE 60s VUILLEMIN REGNIER 12ATM LANDERON POWERED DIVE CHRONOGRAPH WITH A CERTAIN "JE NAIS SE QUOI"
- CASE: HEFTY SOLID STEEL CASE IN EXCELLENT UNPOLISHED CONDITION. THIS GUY MEASURES A LARGE 39mm ACROSS NOT INCLUDING ORIGINAL LARGE CROWN BY 45mm LUG TO LUG. THIS THING IS REALLY SHARP. I LOVE THE FONT AND CHARACTER OF THAT CLASSIC BLACK BEZEL....AS WELL AS THAT IDIOSYNCRATIC LAYOUT WITH THE MINUTE HASH MARKS BEING FROM 40-60...SO PECULIAR AND INTRIGUING
- DIAL: THIS RICH MATTE BLACK DIAL IS SUPER SMOOTH. CHECK OUT THOSE SUBTLY SUNKEN SUBDIALS WITH THOSE DEEP RADIAL GROOVES. AND, HOW COOL ARE THOSE HORIZONTALLY ALIGNED HEAVY DUTY RECTANGULAR LUME PLOTS?. DIAL IS VIEWED FROM THE ORIGINAL PLEXI IN GOOD SHAPE WITH SOME MINOR AGE RELATED BLEMISHES. ALL TIED TOGETHER WITH THOSE RED/YELLOW CHRONO HANDS WHICH ADD A LITTLE KETCHUP AND MUSTARD TO THIS FRENCH FRY.
- MOVEMENT: THIS SLEEK DIVE CHRONO IS POWERED BY A SWISS EBAUCHE 17J LANDERON 248. ALL FUNCTIONS WORK PERFECTLY AND WATCH HAS BEEN KEEPING EXCELLENT TIME. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN BUT WATCH HAS BEEN BEHAVING AMAZINGLY FOR WEEKS OF ON/OFF WRIST OBSERVATION.
- THIS VUILLEMIN REIGNARD IS MOUNTED ON A NOS LAMP PRODUCED DRAGON STYLE SOLID STEEL BAND WITH HEAVY TAPER. YOU COULDN'T FIND A COOLER MATCH IF YOU TRIED. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A VINTAGE DIVE CHRONO WITH JUST A LITTLE EXTRA PANACHE...LOOK NO FURTHER
