Title: Seiko Quartz Chronograph w/Box
Description:
EXCELLENT condition. Nice good beater or fun watch as it should
be pretty darn water and dust resistant. Says 100 meters so, that should
mean a real tight watch. Not real sure how old this is but the box looks
like an older style. One thing I have noticed for the first time is a
neat case design which Seiko has incorporated into a high grade diashock
"japan only" market. I'll show you one in a day or two. They have an
extra layer of steel on top of the lugs which is brushed in contrast to
the high polish on the rest of the lug. Anyway, I forgot to have Wayne
put in a new battery so this will be ready after I see him next week.
One extra link too. Some scuffs and a scratch or two on the polished
bezel also. Just noticed that the subsidiary dial at six is another two
hand watch dial, for second time zones I guess. Pretty cool. Measures 39 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 47 mm long x 10 mm thick.

Title: Pre-Owned
Hamilton Khaki, Quartz

VERYGOOD condition. These are great watches which are still very
much like the old Vietnam era military issue watches Hamilton and Benrus
put out in the 60's, 70's and 80's. Parkerized steel cases with screw on
backs and easy to read black and white dials. Powered by a Swiss made
ETA 955.122 which Wayne has looked over and installed a new battery

crown) x 46 mm long x 9 mm thick.

Title:
Nice Military Issue Waltham Ordinance Department
AS FOUND
Description:
VERYGOOD condition. A great looking watch even though the case
has been buffed heavily in the past and the dial refinished (not by us).
The crown and low profile glass crystal probably are not original either
but our affordable price reflects that. Runs great and has been checked
on the timing machine for accuracy. A nice new Hadley Roma 881 oil tan
strap in the new saddle color is attached along with a stainless steel
buckle. Measures 31.5 mm wide (not including the crown) x 38 mm long x 10.5 mm thick.

Title: Reconditioned British Military Issue CWC
Broad Arrow
Description:
EXCELLENT condition. Purchased a few of these overseas from a
military wholesaler and needing new batteries and crystals when they
arrived but apparently these were issued, returned by the soldier after
tour of duty and sold to the wholesale buyer,
so some could have seen action. Heavy parkerized steel cases with fixed
lugs, acrylic crystals and Swiss quartz movements. New nylon straps included.
Limited supply. Measures 36 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 43 mm long x 11 mm thick.

Title:
Big Heavy Pink Croton, Swiss Made Automatic
Description:
NEARMINT condition. Sweet watch which looks and wears way better
than this low price might lead you to believe. The pink gold plated
steel case and bracelet have few light scuffs if any and the ETA 25
jewel movement has a gorgeous decorated rotor. Also, the crown screws
down and the crystals are sapphire. Croton's branding is is problem,
otherwise I can see a nice watch like this retailing for about $600 and
selling on the pre-owned market for about $375 or so. Grab it quick if
you like the style. Very heavy. Double deployant bracelet clasp. Fits an
8 inch wrist or smaller. Measures 43 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 50 mm long x 11.5 mm thick.

Title: Super Cool Early Gotham Radium Dial
Wrist Watch
Description:
GOOD condition. Wonderful example of an affordable cool
vintage gents watch. Probably radium on the Arabic numerals but with
nice new luminescent material in the original hands, filled by Wayne who
also checked out the 6 jewel Gotham (AS-554) hand wound movement. Swiss
watch with a nice three piece case, original dial and long 16 mm genuine
lizard skin strap. We'll put something else on there if you don't like
it. Checked out by Wayne and regulated. PS. Notice the back which says
stainless on the inside and base metal on the outside. Pretty sure they
mean that the middle body and bezel are chrome plated base metal and the
back is steel. Pretty good size for vintage square of this age.
Measures 29 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 35 mm long x 10 mm thick.

Title:
Pre-Owned Citizen Echodrive w/Diamonds
Description:
VERYGOOD condition. I think this watch is a few years old as the
original owner had it for awhile. Comes with both boxes and manual
although the outer thin paper box is a bit tattered. Some scuffs on the
bracelet which is made pretty nice Should fit a 7 and 1/2 inch wrist or
smaller as it is just a tad too tight as is for my 7 and 5/8ths inch
wrist. I think these are genuine diamonds but I have not actually
researched this model. It is attractive, looking like a modern full bar
Omega Constellation. Japanese Echodrive never needs a battery change. Measures 36 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 38 mm long x 1xx mm thick.

Title: Traser Code Blue Tritium
Quartz Diver
Description:
NEARMINT condition. Rugged plastic and steel combination makes
this a lightweight and extremely durable time piece. One owner with
original packaging, open warranty booklet and tag. Tritium gas filled
tubes illuminate the dial, hands and I think there is one on the timing
bezel. 30 meter water resist rating and this is one watch I wouldn't
worry about getting wet. This may be a few years old as the dial doesn't
seem to light up all that great. Measures 43 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 46 mm long x 10.5 mm thick.

Title:
Large European Market Onsa Hand Wind
Description:
GOOD condition. This is really a cool watch with a fantastic
original dial in two colors and large fancy case even though it is
chrome and has wear on the lug tops. The back is steel and snaps in
place. Wire lugs with an expensive open ended strap from Hirsch
attached. Runs great, keeps good time, is shock protected (Incabloc) and
is probably late 40's or early 1950's. Measures 36 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 44 mm long x 10.5 mm thick.

Title:
Early 1940's SS Mido Multifort Super Automatic
AS FOUND
Description:
VERYGOOD condition. Can't bargain price Mido watches as they are
Omega's unrecognized little sister in my opinion. What I mean is that
they, like Omega had many innovations and made their own automatic
modules to go on their A. Schild hand wound movements, had nice early
waterproof automatic watches and also many technical inventions like the
water proofing crown system which uses natural cork instead of rubber.
The benefit is that the cork swells if contacted with water completely
sealing the stem area from the outside. All stainless steel with a screw
on back and original plain silvered dial. No lum. This is an Incabloc
shock protected, anti-magnetic Mido in decent condition with a dinged up
crown but otherwise fully usable and keeping good time. We have
installed a nice Hadley Roma dark brown strap with ss buckle. This is
small enough for a lady to wear but they were considered a gents watch
and sold as such 70 years ago when this was made. PS. Could also be late
1930's. Measures 29 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 35 mm long x 12 mm thick.

Title:
Nice Hand Wound Porcelain Dial Enicar Sport
Description:
VERYGOOD condition. Really good looking watch with a fairly rare
porcelain dial and good sized all steel case. Three hairline cracks on
the dial or this would easily get a lot more money. Check out this model
from our free vintage price guide which sold recently.
Click here. The slotted screw
on back covers a 15j center second shock protected hand wound Enicar (A.
Schild Caliber 1188) which has been gone through and checked out by
Wayne the watchmaker. A new old stock lizard strap looks great with this
cool dial. Measures 34.5 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 42 mm long x 12.5 mm thick.

Title:
Affordable Stainless Steel Wittnauer Automatic
Description:
VERYGOOD condition. Nice affordable one piece water and dust
resistant automatic watch from the 1960's. I purchased this from my
watchmaker Wayne who has gone through it. It is Swiss made and runs
great and looks great with some pitting on the back and several light
nicks all over. Not an issue except for aesthetics. A cool inexpensive
shark type vintage strap from his old stock is attached but if you would
like a nice Hadley Roma we can put one on it for you. Signed crown and
truly a one piece case with no bezel or back, all one single part. Measures 30 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 37 mm long x 10 mm thick.

Title:
Unusual Rose Gruen Electra
Description:
VERYGOOD condition. This is a really cool transitional watch
made before quartz and half mechanical. The Landeron Caliber 4750
movement uses a battery to power the traditional balance wheel/assembly
and so this watch/second hand ticks like a mechanical. A dark rose gold
plated case with a steel back. Very nice condition but the photos show
some wear through down on the edge of the bezel but I can't see this
with the naked eye at all. Only with magnification or in these close up
photos. This is a decent size and fairly thick and heavy. Nice original
dial shows a little age and cool mildly darkened lightning bolt hands.
Our watchmaker Wayne has gone through this (checked it out for problems)
and put a new battery in. It runs a little fast because modern batteries
are a bit different in power output. About 15-30 seconds a day. Measures 35 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 43 mm long x 15 mm thick.

dial and O. Maire Inc. on the case and the 7 jewel hand wound movement.
Screw back is steel while the rest of it is chrome plated. There is some
wear to the high points and on the bezel. Perfect dial and original
numerals. Hands have been painted up by a European watchmaker. Runs fine
and keeps good time. Measures 31 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 39 mm long x 10 mm thick.

Title:
Small Swiss Made "Florence Miller"
Mechanical Alarm
Serviced
Description:
GOOD condition. We just serviced the Swiss made A. Schild
Caliber 1475 hand wound alarm movement on this vintage time piece. It
works great but has been used enough to show most of the gold plated
parts well worn (on the head). Base metal middle body with a steel back.
Original era gold plated and steel bracelet. Original dial say's
Florence Miller at the top. She was a beloved Newfoundland author and
poet in the early 20th century and I am unsure how her name got on this
dial. Two explanations come to mind. This "line" from the manufacturer
was a Florence Miller line or I suppose the watch could have been hers
as she lived until 1979 dying at the age of 89. Could be another
Florence Miller altogether. Measures 33 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 40 mm long x 13 mm thick. Item #4620

life until now. The black dial is original and in good condition with
cool very dark radium Arabic numerals. Recently freshened up with white
in the hands. Runs fine and has a base metal middle body which has lost
all its chrome. Oversized subsidiary seconds dial. Dial looks better in
person than these photos show. Unusual military style, 1940's time
piece. Measures 32 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 39 mm long x 9 mm thick.

Title:
Very Nice Looking Pink Benrus w/Matching Expansion Bracelet
Description:
VERYGOOD condition. Great example of a well made affordable
vintage pink tank style Benrus. Excellent pink gold filled case and
original pink bracelet which is hard to find. Not signed but none of
them ever were, expansion bracelets like this. Jewelers usually sold
them or a strap along with the watch from their own inventory. A little
bit of wear on it but they are rare in pink. Original dial and glass
crystal. That is a black mark at around 5 and 6 and a lighter one around
12. The curved shadow on the left is from my photography dome camera
hole and is seen in a lot of photos from the angle. From a local
watchmakers estate here in Missouri. Runs great. Measures 21 mm wide (not including the
crown) x 34 mm long x 9 mm thick.
