SPORTY~MID 60s FRENCH IMPERIAL YACHTING PANDA

Regular price $0.69 Sale

FOR YOUR EYES ONLY IS A SEXY MID 60s FRENCH IMPERIAL VALJOUX 773O REVERSE PANDA WITH COLOURFUL YACHTING MINUTE SUBDIAL .

 

  • CASE: CLASSY CHROMED CASE WITH SOLID STEEL BACK IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.  SHE MEASURES A NICE 36mm NOT INCLUDING CROWN BY 43mm LUG TO LUG. CASE LOOKS SHARP ON THIS ONE WITH ABSOLUTELY NO SIGNS OF WEAR IN THE CHROME. THIS ONE WEARS BEAUTIFULLY ON THE WRIST 

 

  • DIAL: SIMPLY STUNNING.  THIS SILVER SUNBURST PANDA DIAL IS IN  MINT CONDITION AND IS TOTAL EYE CANDY.  I DIG THOSE GROOVY ARABIC NUMERALS WHICH GIVE THIS ONE A CLASSY AND REFINED LOOK. IT'S ALL ABOUT THAT YACHTING MINUTE SUBDIAL WITH THOSE AWESOME PINK AND BLUE SEGMENTS. SUCH AN UNUSUAL THING TO SEE ON A NON-DIVER WATCH. I LOVE THOSE SIMPLE BLUNTED STEEL STICK HANDS AND THAT BLACK CHRONO SWEEPER WHICH GOES NICELY WITH THE BLACK SUBDIALS. THIS ONE IS TOTALLY KILLER.

 

  • MOVEMENT: THIS CHRONO IS POWERED BY THE FAMED VALJOUX 7730. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN. WATCH WINDS SMOOTHLY. ALL CHRONO FUNCTIONS WORK AS THEY SHOULD. I'VE LET THE CHRONO RUN FOR OVER 24 HOURS, AND IT DOESN'T STALL OUT. THIS ONE IS KEEPING GREAT TIME AND THE MOVEMENT LOOKS CLEAN WITH VERY HIGH AMPLITUDE ON THE TIMEGRAPHER.

 

THIS IMPERIAL IS  MOUNTED ON A SPORTY DARK BLUE TROPIC STYLE RUBBER STRAP WHICH MATCHES NICELY WITH THAT POP OF BLUE ON THE DIAL AND BRINGS OUT THE YACHTING NATURE OF THIS GUY.  THIS ONE IS A GREAT ALL-PURPOSE CHRONO RIDING THE LINE NICELY BETWEEN SPORTS WATCH AND DRESS PIECE. THIS IS A UNIQUE FRENCH TWIST ON THE CLASSIC PANDA DIAL CHRONO.
