FOR SALE IS A SUPER RAD NEAR MINT 70s TITUS TUNING FORK ELECTRONIC GENTS WATCH WITH STUNNING HOBNAIL DIAL.
- CASE: SLEEK AND SEXY ALL-STEEL CASE MEASURING A LARGE 38mm ACROSS BEZEL NOT INCLUDING CROWN BY 44mm LUG TO LUG. CASE IS IN PRACTICALLY MINT CONDITION WITH VERY LITTLE SIGNS OF EVER HAVING BEEN WORN. THE ORIGINAL BRUSHED FINISH LOOKS IMPECCABLE AND CHECK OUT THOSE SHARP CRISP EDGES. THIS ONE WEARS QUITE LARGE DUE TO THE THIN BEZE, WIDE DIAL, AND THE INTEGRATED BRACELET DESIGN.
- DIAL: IT'S REALLY ALL ABOUT THAT FINISH. GET A LOOK AT THAT CRAZY BEAUTIFUL SILVER HOBNAIL TEXTURED DIAL WHICH IS SPECTACULAR IN ALL LIGHTING CONDITIONS. I LOVE THE THIN APPLIED BLACK/STEEL MARKERS WHICH LET THAT DIAL FINISH DO ALL THE TALKING. THE LUME ON BOTH THE DIAL AND HANDSET ARE IN AMAZINGLY WELL PRESERVED CONDTION. ALL VIEWED UNDER THE ORIGINAL SCRATCH FREE FLAT MINERAL GLASS CRYSTAL.
- MOVEMENT: THIS HANDSOME FELLA RUNS ON A BULOVA/ACCUTRON BASED 218 TUNING FORK MOVEMENT WHICH IS HUMMING ALONG WELL. IT'S BEEN A STRONG RUNNER FOR ME AND HAS KEPT GREAT TIME.
- WATCH COMES ON ITS INTEGRATED ALL STEEL HEAVY DUTY TAPERED BRACELET IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. BRACELET IS CURRENTLY SIZED FOR A 6.75" WRIST WITH AN ADDITIONAL 7 MICRO-ADJUSTS. THIS IS SUCH A CLASSY PIECE WITH JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF 70s FUNK TO GO ALONG. TITUS WATCHES ARE BEST KNOWN FOR MAKING THE FAMED CALYPSOMATIC WHICH, WITH THE ROLEX SUBMARINER, WAS ONE OF THE TOUCHSTONE DIVERS OF THE EARLY 60s. THIS IS A GREAT EVERYDAY PIECE WHICH RIDES THE LINE BETWEEN ELEGANCE AND SPORTINESS.
