Hello guys.
Can anyone Tell me something about the value of these 1970s fast beat watches? The Prices seem to change a lot. I Found some that were sold for almost 1000€ and some way lower. What do you think. Watch is serviced

You're right, the prices are all over the place for these ... A lot of them are gold plated or in designs that collectors today don't seem to appreciate. The higher-priced ones are either in "time capsule condition", or wishful thinking by the sellers.

Having a serviced one in good condition is nice, though, I believe. I like the design on yours - it is a "very 1970s design", though. You either like it or you don't.

According to a list of serial numbers (found here: http://www.schild-eterna.de/tripletime.htm ), your watch was produced in 1972.

Some info about the movement can be found here (Ranfft.org has only very little info):

Thank you very much!
I have to admit its realy cool to hold it next to my ear and hear it ticking twice as fast as an pocketwatch.
