    Hello all,

    For your consideration, a beautiful example of the Luftwaffe issued fly back chronograph, Glashutte Urofa 59. I believe it to be a very solid example. This one is of the desirable early variation (1941-43) equipped with the gold plated movement and uncommon balance shock absorbing feature.

    I will disclose right off the bat that the serial number or numbers on the caseback and movement are 819 numbers apart. Since the numbers are the same production year, I have no doubt that there was an inadvertent swap on the assembly line or service bench rather than this being a put together watch. for this reason, the watch will be priced accordingly.

    Will consider trading for interesting chronographs plus cash my way.

    Thanks

    This chronograph functions flawlessly. Winds, sets, resets and flyback functions are all good. It's an amazing timekeeper and keeps time at the same level as my modern mechanicals. Service history unknown.

    Dial and hands are all original and in fantastic condition with the radium coating is still quite active. The beautiful original "bullet" style crown is in impeccable condition. The start/stop push might have been replaced over the years.
    The nickel plated case with 20 mm fixed bars, is excellent along with the knurled rotating bezel. Total diameter is 39 mm. Great presence on the wrist.

    Asking price including delivery to Canada or the USA: USD $ 3679.00. OBRO.

    Bank wire or Paypal for friends or with added fees OK with buyer's verifiable references.

    Nice example, one of the last of the early models with gilded movement. The price is hard to beat.
