Title: Small Steel Croton Aquamatic, Early Waterproof AS FOUND Description: EXCELLENT condition. I can't sell this watch for nuthin'. What brought this on, you might say? Well, I have a lot of this type of watch from two decades of collecting and the fact is that they don't get much money, so I seldom list them. Way undervalued, probably because of size. Tank watches are small and they seem to sell fairly well but this is a much better watch. All steel, not gold filled like most tanks. Water and dust proof design and it is an automatic. Early (1940's) shock protected bumper wind. You can feel it bump up agin its springs. Bought from an old watchmaker who previously serviced the watch. Fantastic unbuffed condition. Look at the back. Click on the image to the left for close-up photos. Nearmint original dial with most of the old lum (radium?) intact. Original hands. Acrylic crystal. The strap is a long gray pigskin, well worn but original. We will be happy to include a nice new strap at your request. Measures 31 mm wide (not including the crown) x 42 mm long x 10 mm thick. {$175} Item #5054 SOLD
