Intriguing
I have to admit that I have very little knowledge and information about these pre-war Chronos, which makes me shy away from purchases at this time. Looking great, congrats to that catch. CC
To me this looks more like a version of the Valjoux 71...
Than the Valjoux 23. Best Blomman ...
What a beauty!
Congratulation! Please tell/show us more about this watch. Best Blomman
Thank you
Well it is 35 mm , porcelain dial ,Hand wound the movement is of high quality steel, the case is of stainless steel . Both movement and case are stampend The crown is not original . It still works but not accurate . I bought it 15 years ago on antique mar...
I really don't know if it is Valjoux 23 , it looks like it
But the movement is polished with all fine lines . I can notice they used good quality steel.
Yes, you need to find a good vintage watchmaker for this kind of watch...
Someone with experience with this kind of watches. Best Blomman
Update , as from the vintage watch maker
Hi all , the movement is not valjoux 23 and we cant indentify the movement so i cannot find the spare parts . Could it be caliber 13 ?
Too bad.
Valjoux 71 is the closest I have in my library. But I don't have many chronograph movement specifications. Let's some of the experts can help here! Best Blomman
