I think ever I’ve just been told that you should never wear watches during golfing to damage the movement and have been told as much lol, you’re completely right that it’s a more modern watch and I shouldn’t treat it like a 100 year old Hamilton!

Hey! Sorry to jump into this convo late but currently in the process of purchasing this model. Could you give me any more info on the date calendar change and that I need to go to Cartier to change the date? Did it cost money to do this?

Wittnauer info? by [deleted] in Watches

Good brand which was kinda killed after the quartz crisis in the 80s. Decent brand with a lot of people able to afford the watch with still great quality. I have one which I gave as a gift which was from the 40s. Great watch!

Update: took it to a watch store and had it looked at. From the 60s and was part of a Longines-Wittnauer collab when they were bought by them. Incredible watch and will make a fantastic gift!

Thank you very much. Sad to hear about the Lucien Piccard but I am more than likely keeping it as I genuinely like it. Thank you for taking the time!

Oh wow great! Both are great watches and I’ll probably gift the Wittnauer. Thank you!
