    Dear all,

    Up for sale today is something a bit unique - Charles Nicolet calendar with a two-tone copper dial. I have found this piece to be the very essence of vintage - not necessarily a famous brand, but a watch which possesses many of the attributes that make vintage so much fun. In my humble opinion, a lot of watch for the $.

    Highlights:
    - Unique two-tone copper dial
    - Art deco numerals
    - Red date pointer
    - Serviced in 2018

    Lowlights:
    - The original hour and minute hands had turned black with age. My watchmaker found identical style hands and installed them during service
    - Dial isn't perfect - slight oxidation on a couple hour markers, small scratches in the seconds sub-dial

    More details:
    Year: 1940s
    Case: Original, 36mm, stainless steel
    Dial: Original, two-tone
    Hands: Replacements
    Movement: Original, manual wind, keeps reasonable time
    Bracelet: Ladder style, fits up to 7" in it's current state but I have two extra links I can send if needed

    I’m asking $400 (originally $475) USD net to me which will also include 2 day insured shipping within CONUS. Other countries at cost. Watch and I are in the US and I can ship worldwide (with some exceptions). No returns please.

    Plenty of references available upon request. Thanks!

    Note: Movement picture taken prior to service.
