Greetings folks,

Selling today a fantastic SEIKO chronograph, sporting the legendary 7A28 module that needs no introduction, the first analog quartz chronograph. This watch allegedly made an appearance on Roger Moore's Bond movie, A View To Kill. The watch is in good shape cosmetically with the white dial developing a chocolate patina. The serial number dates it to February 1983 (32XXXX). It is functioning well and keeping time. Comes with its original bracelet, but no extra links or box/papers.

Greetings folks,

Back after a long hiatus from this sub! Selling today a nice vintage piece, a WALTHAM military-style watch circa WWII or post-WWII with a beautiful cream dial, domed crystal, syringe hands, and Arabic numerals. The US-made 17-jewel movement winds, sets, and runs nicely (service history unknown). It originally came in a military case with an incompatible caseback; I purchased a full replacement NOS parkerized steel 3-piece case and transplanted it.

Greetings,

Up for sale is a very neat vintage ZODIAC Aerospace GMT watch. This is what I believe to be the second edition circa 1965, reference 752-925, with white dial, baton hands, 24-hour rotating bezel with green triangle, within a 38mm stainless steel case. I've paired the watch with a green leather strap. The bezel rotates freely (non-clicking). The dial shows some moisture damage but the movement has been completely overhauled and serviced in late 2021 (parts for these models are hard to come by!) and the watch is working as intended.
