Horological Meandering

A very special Lip Chronograph!

 

I kick my head on the walls when I remember this Lip Chronograph. 


It is a 36 mm case, which is not smaller than a vintage Daytona, housing a Valjoux 7733, nothing noble, but this dial is really exciting. 

Pay attention to the sub dials...  ( Credit picture: Analog And Shift ).

Watch, LIP, Lip Chronograph

Don't they remind you something? 

Well... Here you are: 



Daytona Paul Newman Ref 6262.

This watch was for sale in Paris, in a watch dealer shop and website. 

The time I called him, he just told me the Lip was just sold. 

Then, I saw it at another watch dealer's site... Same thing: Sold. 

Then, I saw it again, but at A and S... Sold again, but not recently. 

When you think that this watch was available at the parisian dealer for around 3, 000 Euros, if my memory doesn't play me some tricks... 

The whole watch is very highly charming, the case and the dial, especially. And the movement doesn't bother me, at this level of price. 

I am still banging my head on the walls... 

Best,

Nicolas
