ORIGINAL 1960S RETRO WATCH
 
RADO MUSKETEER X AUTOMATIC  REF MY11138

Very special and rare opportunity to own a brand new Rado Musketeer X , circa 1960s that has been in storage and never used . Beautiful , mint and still has the original protective wax on the back cover and instruction booklet ( no box ) . This watch would have been VERY expensive in the 60s and you would have been a wealthy man back then to own one , even a modern new Rado costs hundreds and even thousand of pounds which makes this a very genuine bargain at this price and no longer available from Rado for 40 years .

The dial is really iconic of all 1960s with browny bronze tones . Furnished with luminous/chrome batons and hands , quick set day/date window at 3 . The crystal is acrylic and scratch free . Case and bracelet are stainless with solid links to the bracelet and an unusual hexagonal design to the high polished case . Signed on the buckle , dial , crown , back cover and even the crystal ( check the pics ) and movement . I have fitted a period buckle extension for those with larger wrists . It has all original links and normally fits a 7.5" wrist but the extension allows it up to 8.5" wrist if needed . In new condition and any marks will slight and only gained through handling or storage . Runs on a glorious smooth 25 jewelled automatic movement , calibre 2798-1 . Perfect working order and keeping time having just been serviced . Quality and best condition always makes for a great investment .

Watch dimensions

Top case to bottom  36mm , side to side ( without crown ) 38mm , thickness ( crystal to back cover ) 12.5mm .
