    Hello,

    For sale is a bumper Lecoultre with "réserve de marche". I like this watch but, oddly, I prefer another one in worse condition, so this one has little wrist time.

    The Amercian made case is 10k gold filled. It is in good condition, with some litle scratches but no lacks. 3,2 cm diameter not including the crown. I beleive the crown to be original and I am sure the dial and the hands are. As per the condition of the dial, please see the pics - I have tried to show different positions with various lights.

    The movement is the classic Lecoultre 481. It is in good condition. I serviced the watch 5 years ago. Please remember that I am not a watchmaker, and I was not as good as I am today - not saying I am good but you get the idea! Anyway, the watch is working fine, with a good time keeping. It is worth noticing that I changed the bumper bearing, which is usually pretty worn on those movements. Thus the automatic system is completly operational, with a very nice "bumper feeling".

    For this watch, I ask 600 [edit] euros, shipping costs included. I can ship worldwhile. Paypal is okay for established members. Head only: the band is not part of the deal.

    Cheers,
    François

    A few more pics with natural light. I would say the dial looks better in real life!

    Hello erveryone,

    Not much interest so far I am afraid.The price was probably a bit high. So price reduction: 650 shipped!

    Cherrs,

    Last reduction: 600 euros shipped, including Paypal fees. I think this is a fair price for this piece. I have tested it on my timegrapher, and it still keeps good time.

    Cheers,
    François
