    FOR SALE: Baume & Mercier 18K Ladies watch ONE OWNER: So This watch was my mothers. She passed away in 1987 and its been in my safe deposit box ever since. In 1987 I was 3 years away from buying my first Omega....A Speedmaster of course..Imagine that!

    I'm guessing this is from the 70s but it could be from the 60s

    It has my mother's initials engraved on the case back "CWW" she would be the original owner. The numbers on the case back are 363508 and 36643 on the clasp it is marked 750 and BMG. After my mother's death a report was written by a jeweler. It reads: "Ladys yellow gold stamped 750 Baume & Mercier Seventeen jewel mechanical watch. The watch has a white face with black roman numerals. The back cover is hand engraved CWW. The back cover is also stamped 363508 and 36643. Total weight without movement is 47.51 grams".
    The jewelry in 1987 estimated the replacement value of this watch for Insurance purposes as $6890.00....I wish.

    It runs, I put it on my cheap time graph and the amplitude is low just over 200 and S/D was like -2 S/D, I dont remember the beat error and I think the VPH was 21,600 no idea what the lift angle was so I set it at 50.

    The value of the Gold alone is $1500 and I'm hoping there is a Lady or Gentlemen out there who would like to add this to there collection.

    The dial has some raised dots in the white enamel from age and some chipping around the edge of the enamel dial, The crystal is Plexi and looks like it was glued in by a not so professional watch smith. All these flaws need either a 10X loupe or very good eyes to see the 2 chips at the edge of the enamel. There are scratches on the plexi crystal that reflect on the dial, I think these could be polished out by a pro.

    The Gold itself is in near mint condition with no visible damage. I tell you all this to be as transparent as possible.

    There are two positions on the clasp so it could fit a 6 1/4 to 6 1/2 inch wrist. I think 6 1/2 would be little tight so I would figure a wrist just slightly smaller.

    My Price is $2199.00 OBO ! plus $45 shipping Fedex signature required

    As this is my first listing please advise if I have made a mistake I can fix immediately.
    I have good feedback at TRF and VIPER B and MISIEKPED can vouch for my good character
    I have also done business with Archer so he can say I was a good customer.
