Grand Sport Chronograph
A recent posting by CFN will allow comparison to the older version. The older version is not found in the market place very often. I opted for the Gran' Sport as a kind of substitute.
Came came with Black or White Face, SS or Gold case, SS Link Bracelet or Black Rubber band.
Some faces have Roman Numerals for all hours, this one has marker triangles for some numbers.
The Flag at the lower right tells the status of the Chrono on the other side.
The Chrono is limited to full seconds and a 30 minute dial with a Fly Back pointer; split timing is not possible.
Manual wind, Cal 859, this is 295.8.59. Available from 2000 to about 2007.
Uncommon 4 lug case design.
Images are of this watch by the seller or unknown source.
Thanks for looking

I really like this one. Thank you for sharing
It is always fun to see the same concept executed in different ways. Classic vs sporty. In a perfect world, I would have both versions. I did not know about the variation in dials. I will look for that. Always good to learn something new. I stumbled over ...
A truly fabulous Reverso…
If it didn’t have the four lug design I would long have had one. Even so I will probably add one sooner or later 😉👍🏻
This watch line never
got the love of its polo cousin. I e always thought they were interesting though not my aesthetic
I am eyeing Grand sport for now...white dial, time and date only.
But on many examples i see on internet, the dial has developed yellowish/brownish patina in the center...which cause by prolonged exposure to UV. Or maybe just because of the age. Some may love the patina dial, but personality i dislike it. If i buy it an...
