Well, it is a very nice and unpolished seamaster chronometer, which is said to be rare in a proportion of 10 constellations for every seamaster chronometer.

Case back is marked with the double ref. 168.022 - 166.028. It measures 37mm without crown. A sweet and almost perfect size.



I had the fortune to find it in a pawn shop in Mexico City.

At first I bought it without knowing anything, because it looked fine, but the more I learnt about, it grew more and more on me. While looking at it I say to myself: who needs a Calatrava? (Obviously joking)

Now it’s one of my never let go watches smile

I thing it is circa 1969

Thanks for your comments.

René

The name is a castilianization of the composed word Ahuilizapan in native tongue Nahuatl, which means: place of the happy waters/place of the relaxing waters/place of the leisure waters. That you can see in this glyph depicting the name: Here you can see ...
