ORIGINAL 1970S RETRO WATCH MENTOR JUMP HOUR REF JA06165
Here is a massive jump hour watch and the very biggest I have ever seen. The unbelievable strap is more like a belt and a full 40mm wide. I only have the one of these and will not be listing any more in the foreseeable future. Jump hours are rare in any condition but this one is brand new old stock, meant originally for sale in the 1970s. A top quality watch made with Swiss, 17 jewelled wind up mechanical movement. These were also know as " direct read " or even " digital " because of the way they tell the time using rotating discs that appear behind little apertures . This model has amazing space age appearance and looks as futuristic today as it did 30 years ago. Shows hours and mins in a small square aperture in a veritable river of chromium plate that surrounds it. The watch caseis finished in high polish chromium plate to all surfaces. The black strap is real leather and never worn. It is ultra cool with huge retro appeal and typifies the 1970s watch design. Completely original, circa 1970s, brand new old stock and running perfectly. Not the cheapest jump hour that you can find but a rare model that you are unlikely to find again and a certain investment.
