Classic 1950s Chronograph Watch
reliable Valjoux 23 movement
Great Condition !!!
Extremely beautiful Swiss made vintage chronograph dated 1958-60. It's almost identical to the legendary classic black dial ref.3336 chrono; the only differences are silver dial with recessed rather then extruded hour bars, and shape of hour and minute hands. Otherwise the case and the movement are the same.
The dial is beautiful with two recessed sub-dials and recessed silver hour marks. It's in rare original, untouched condition with some patina and few missing characters in 'Made in Switzerland' at the bottom.
True Classic in beautifully shaped stainless steel case.
