ORIGINAL 1970S RETRO WATCH

FAVRE LEUBA QUARTZ RAIDER 32768HZ ELECTRONIC REF AG103333

 

A rare treat for all you electronic watch lovers - This watch is of historical importance because the movement is the height of technology and in 1972 it won an accuracy competition at the " Observatoire de Neuchatel " . The movement is cal 352 by Girard - Perregaux  ( the same movement is also found in the JAEGER LE COULTRE MASTER QUARTZ that I have for sale ) . This watch truly is a rare find and doubt you will ever find another new one again .

The Favre Leuba Quartz Raider is part of the Raider series which also includes the more abundant Moon Raider but this quartz model is by far the rarest and one I have NEVER seen before and doubt I will see another . Swiss made and fantastic build quality and an extremely unusual design . Being hewed out of solid stainless steel for the case which only shows extremely slight signs of being used or storage and is near mint . There are no scratches or marks at all that I can mention apart the finest and hard to see . The back cover holds the bracelet on in a similar way that Omegas Dynamic does and is quite unique . Time is on an incredible dial that simply stinks of the 1970s . Oval shape with an unusual pin stripe type dial . Furnished with chrome batons and hands and quick set date window at 3 . Signed on the dial , movement , back cover , crown and buckle . It is running perfectly and holding time . Signed all over on the dial , back cover , crown movement and buckle . A top investment and very rare watch to find .

Top case to bottom  46mm , side to side ( without crown ) 41mm , thickness ( crystal to back cover ) 12.5mm
