FOR YOU CONSIDERATION IS A NEW OLD STOCK 70s PSYCHEDELIC ANDOWATCH VALJOUX 7734 "TV" CUSHION CASED CHRONOGRAPH WITH ORIGINAL HAND-TAG AND STICKER ON THE BACK.
-
CASE: MINTY SOLID STEEL CUSHION CASE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION MEASURING A LARGE 42mm ACROSS CASE NOT INCLUDING CROWN BY 39mm LUG TO LUG. CASE HAS ITS ORIGINAL AND UNTOUCHED FACTORY BRUSHING ON THE CASE, AND IT LOOKS MIGHTY SHARP. I JUST LOVE THE SHAPE OF THIS THING AND THE WAY IT SITS ON THE WRIST. VERY SPORTY. THIS THING IS IMMACULATE WITH SOME MINOR DRAWER MARKS ON IT....IT EVEN HAS REMNANTS OF THE ORIGINAL CASEBACK STICKER ON IT.
-
DIAL: THIS DIAL IS SIMPLY MIND EXPANDING. GET A LOOK AT THAT MINTY FRESH SILVER/GREY DIAL WITH THAT CRAZY RADIAL EFFECT. AWESOME WHITE SUBDIALS WITH THAT SIMILAR EFFECT. I DIG THOSE RED SEGMENTS ON THE MINUTE TOTALIZER. THAT SEVERELY SLOPING WHITE TACHY RING ADDS SOME COOL DEPTH TO THIS FACE. THE SHOW-STOPPER ON THIS DIAL, THOUGH, IS THAT WHITE/RED STICK HANDSET WITH THE RED TIPS. CHECK OUT THAT SYRINGE CHRONO HAND. SO FUNKY.
-
MOVEMENT: THIS SPORTY CHRONOGRAPH IS POWERED BY A 17J VALJOUX 7734 TICKING UNDER THE HOOD. ALL FUNCTIONS WORK PERFECTLY AND WATCH HAS BEEN KEEPING TIME. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN, BUT WATCH WINDS SMOOTHLY, CHRONO WORKS CRISPLY, AND SHE'S BEEN BEHAVING LIKE A TRUE SCHOLAR OVER A SOLID WEEK OF ON/OFF WRIST OBSERVATION.
- THIS ANDOWATCH IS MOUNTED ON A SUPPLE BROWN 24mm HORWEEN STRAP HAND-MADE BY @WATCHDISPLAY. I LOVE THAT SEVERE TAPER DOWN TO A 16mm BUCKLE WHICH GIVES THAT ULTIMATE VINTAGE TOUCH. THIS WATCH HAS MOST LIKELY BEEN SITTING UNTOUCHED FOR 4-5 DECADES WAITING FOR THE RIGHT WRIST TO COME ALONG. SHE STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL HANG-TAG TO MAKE THIS THE ULTIMATE COLLECTORS CHRONO. THIS IS A SERIOUS STEAL WITH A TON OF 70s PANACHE.
