Description

Vintage. Comes with orig. period boxes which is very rare to have but no paper.

This is an exceptional example of a large chronograph measuring 38mm in solid 18KPG by Baume & Mercier dating to 1950s. It has square pushers & two registers for constant seconds & 30mins recorder. Upon removing the snap-on back cover, you’ll be greeted with a copper dust cover that acts as an anti-magnetic protection to the movement as well. This watch was acquired from Argentina, a place where it was once the mecca for South Americans and it came with the original boxes in lovely condition.

The movement was recently overhauled in 2019 at a cost of S$800 and works very well since.

A fantastic opportunity to acquire a jumbo 38mm sized vintage chronograph in 18ct pink gold and with original box set but the jewel here is the quality of the dial with multiple colours.
