Another rare Movado chrono from the 1940′s. This is a very uncommon model with high quality steel stepped case in a nice size (35mm excl. crown) from the 1940′s. It looks very similar to a vintage Patek chrono and is of similar quality. The original dial is the rarest variant with applied Breguet indexes and blue telemetre scala. It’s simply stunning, aged a bit but soooo nice. Movement is Movado’s high quality 90M which is working perfectly. Attached is a high quality leather band. Truly rare piece, a Patek for the ‘poor’.

Stunning oversize Eberhard chronograph from the 40′s. This version has a rare original black dial with gold printing and is starting to get tropical. The oversize stepped case is super nice with fixed bars and a whopping 40mm ecl. crowns, probably never been polished. Movement is Eberhard’s own with an extra feature where one can lock the lower pusher. Attached is a high quality leather NATO strap. These chrono’s are still undervalued, if one looks at the design, quality, movement & size they should be in the Longines 13ZN or Omega 33.3 range so it’s an excellent investment opportunity.

Amazing Mido Multicenter Chrono with anti slide pushers. What an awesome looking watch this is, especially with it’s rare black/white dial.

Very rare oversize Longines Chrono Stop NAV from 1947 measuring 46mm without crown. Few of these flyback single pushers were made, most have aviation heritage like this one. Reference is 5824-23473 which was delivered in July 1947 in The Netherlands (Longines Museum info). I’m actually the third owner and bought the watch quite some years ago from  my watchmaker who bought it from the original owner here in the Netherlands. He was a pilot who had worked for a Canadian Air company called NAV (hence the inscription). After many years of use he could not see the numbers anymore so had the numbers relumed (the dial is all original and very nice with gilt printing). The lume is part of it’s history but can be removed if desired. Movement is 12.68Z with minute counter and is working perfectly. Attached is a special hand-made strap which suits it perfectly. Very rare stunning piece with a nice history to match it.

Nice 2000 GTV Bertone in it’s original color; Bianco Spino. Not many white 2000 Bertone’s exist as most are red. This car was originally delivered in Belgium in 1972 and has the rare option of an original factory aircon. It’s been fully restored a number of years ago and is still in great condition. The interior has also been redone and still looks pristine with black cloth. The 2.0 engine has done around 10.000km and the gearbox has been freshly overhauled. It’s got period Stil-Auto alloys and the original wheels will also be supplied with the car. Overall a very nice solid Bertone which drives well and is offered for a fair price.

The grail of all Movado’s, this is the anti-slide pusher 35mm case 90M chrono which is virtually the same as the 565 & 1463 from Patek Philippe. The advantage of this piece is that it’s even rarer than a Patek and the price increadibly low compared to the 200K + euro which 1463′s are commanding nowadays. The beautiful and large 35mm waterproof case is made by FB and has anti-slide pushers. It’s probably never been polished and has a vintage inscription on the back. The original dial is amazing, extremely clean and elegant. It has luminous indexes which have aged slightly together with the original hands. Movement is Movado’s 90M which is functioning well. Attached is a nice leather band which matches the hands perfectly. It won’t take very long before these will gain value quickly, for now this is the only one in the market and in stunning condition.

Very rare Movado 95M Chrono with Anti-slide pushers. If you’re looking for a rare Movado Chronograph look no further. This is one of the rarest Movado steel cases; waterproof, high quality steel and the same casemaker as Patek. This can be seen also in the rare anti-slide pushers (which you can also use on your 100 times more expensive Patek chrono). The steel case measures 33,5mm excl the crowns but looks bigger because of the thickness and the large pushers. The casse has never been polished and has ref number 1000. The dial and hands are original with the original lume, it’s aged but still very nice and vintage looking. The watch is from the 50′s and is all original in every aspect. Movement is the own Movado 95M which is in great working condition. Attached is a new Hirsch leather band in cognac which suits the dial perfectly, it also has a vintage steel Movado buckle.

Another rare Blancpain Fifty Fathoms from the end 60′s. Stunning oversize 2nd generation model with graduated bezel and one of the last series made with this early type case. Lovely original dial and hands which have beautifully aged. The watch was probably a military version (BUND) as it also bears the no-radiation symbol which indicates (changes color) when radiation occurs.  The oversize 41mm case is in nice condition with minor scratches and has benefiited from a polish in the past. Movement is the AS1700 with date feature which is the most widely used movement of the Fifty fathoms. Attached is a NOS tropic band. These are now getting really thin on the ground and rising in value fast as Blancpain also issued a re-edition of this model.

EXTREMELY RARE Speedmaster with RACING / EXOTIC dial. Only a handfull of these were made as prototypes and are thus amongst the rarest Speedmasters. Of these dials, around 3 versions exist, one for 321 movements and 2 for Cal. 861. The dial looks similar to the later Mark II but it’s different and unique in various aspects, same for the original hands. The dial is simply in mint condition, all original and stunning. The original hands have aged along with the luminous indexes. The general condition of the watch is mint and it’s just received a movement service with new gaskets & crystal. Reference is 145.022-69ST from 1970. The original stretch bracelet 1039 is market 3-70. Truly a unique opportunity to buy an original Racing dial, I’ve never seen one up for auction, not even at Omegamania and certainly the only one in the open market.

This is a rare Omega Speedmaster from the second series. It’s one of the three more desirable references of the 2998 because also the subdials have leaf hands (only 1-2-3 have this). The watch is 100% original in every aspect with beautiful original dial, dauphines hands, small pushers etc. Icing on the cake is the ULTRA RARE DECIMAL BEZEL. This is not one of those aftermarket bezels you can find but the real thing! The case is very fat and hardly polished in it’s 50 year life. The 321 movement is working perfectly and has serial 17mio. Attached is an original Omega racing strap with vintage Omega buckle. Try to find another with this bezel….

One of the first dive-watches made, the Blancpain Aqua Lung / Fifty fathoms started it’s life in the early fifties and is one of the most beautiful watches the industry has produced. Now very rare and sought after, this example is in mint original condition and truly the best I’veen. This version is from the end 50′s and is a US version which was named Aqua Lung after Jacques Cousteau’s invention (European models were called Fifty fathoms). He also wore these watches on his diving expeditions. The version here with date is extra rare (mostly non-dates) and has the rare matte / grey case which measures 41mm excl. crown. Some say these matte version had military use. The original backelite bezel is in stunning condition and really makes the watch. The original dial is perfect condition and the original hands have a lot of charm and have aged, basically the only indicator which tells the watch is so old (rest is soo perfect). Attached is a NOS tropic diving band. Get it fast as these are very rare and rarely come up for sale, rightfully so collectors hold on to them ever so tight.
