BLUE EYE'D PANDA~LATE 60S WAKMANN(BREITLING 9122) CHRONOGRAPH

Regular price $0.00 $0.69 Sale

FOR YOUR EYES ONLY IS A CLEAN LATE 60s BLUE EYE'D WAKMANN (BREITLING 9122) PANDA WITH A NICE LARGE CASE. SIGNED 3X. 

 

  • CASE: CLASSY LARGE GOLD PLAQUE CASE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.  SHE MEASURES A SUBSTANTIAL 37.5mm NOT INCLUDING ORIGINAL CROWN BY 45.5mm LUG TO LUG.  NO WEAR IN THE GOLD ON THIS ONE AND THE CASE IS IN UNBELIEVABLE UNPOLISHED AND SHARP CONDITION WITH SOME MINOR HAIRLINE SCRATCHES.  THERE IS SOME PLATING LOSS TO THE BACKSIDE OF THE PUSHERS, BUT OVERALL THIS ONE IS SUPER TIDY.  I JUST LOVE THE WAY THIS ONE WEARS. 

 

  • DIAL: THIS TELEMETER CHAMPAGNE PANDA DIAL IS THE BUSINESS.  CHECK OUT THAT CLEAN DIAL WITH THOSE HORIZONTALLY ORIENTED MARKERS. I LOVE THOSE ONYX MARKERS AT 12 AND 6.  CHECK OUT THOSE ELECTRIC BLUE SUBDIALS WHICH CREATE THAT SHARP PANDA LOOK AGAINST THE CHAMPAGNE BACKDROP.  GOLD STICK HANDS ARE CLEAN AND THE LUME MATCHES THE TRITIUM PLOTS ON THE DIAL WITH A NICE HINT OF PATINA.  SOME SUBTLE POPS OF COLOR WITH THE RED/BLUE ON THE TELEMETER SCALE.

 

  • MOVEMENT: THIS CHRONO IS POWERED BY THE VENERABLE VALJOUX 7733 SIGNED WAKMANN (AS WELL AS THE CASEBACK).  SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN BUT THE CHRONO WORKS NICE AND CRISP WITH AN AFFIRMATIVE RETURN TO ZERO. WATCH IS KEEPING EXCELLENT TIME AND WINDING SMOOTHLY.

 

THIS BLUE EYE'D PANDA IS MOUNTED ON A CARAMEL COLORED HANDMADE LEATHER STRAP WHICH LOOKS SUAVE ON THIS GUY.  THIS IS ESSENTIALLY THE WAKMANN BRANDED BREITLING 9122. IDENTICAL CASE/MOVEMENT/AND DIAL. THE WAKMANN VARIANT WAS USUALLY DESTINED FOR THE AMERICAN MARKET. THIS ONE IS IN REALLY NICE SHAPE AND WEARS NICE AND BIG. I LOVE THOSE BLUE EYES AGAINST THAT CHAMPAGNE FACE. THIS ONE IS A LOOKER.
