very rare Compax with ref.22409 (9850xx)
big size 38mm with movement cal.285

 

error, with ref.22499 !

 

Beautiful piece, and quite rare in a 285. Most, as you know, are the smaller 281s.
With nice--and intact!--sharp mushroom pushers, and a pristine gilt/frosted movement.

Cheers!

 

Very very nice!! Your little brother says hi!

 

Both little brothers say "Ciao":

 

Really pretty

 

for my wrist, that's the big size... Happy Easter to all !

You win, GIGI.
Someday I'll find my Universalone... or Zenittone.

 

I ALWAYS wanted one of those oversized UG compaxes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

+ 1

 

I want one for sure, but they're so huge that they're a bit comical... for now I'll settle for a 37mm Tri-Compax.

 

Isn't this one the oversized....
55mm!!!

 

Mushroom pushers!!!

Really nice one! I recently picked up a brother in black, though a tad earlier with "Compax 30" at 6 and different hands. Fantastic watches. (Sorry for the iPhone shot). Congrats on a beautiful acquisition.

 

Those rare, don't buy a watch without them pushers again!!!

Very nice !
The real remaining question to me with these is what the 30 stands for ?

 

Very nice ! I like !
How is the bottom ? Screwed ? Have you a photo ?
