    Next up in the drawer clearing is one I had planned to share in the bargain thread, but I was weak.
    Stainless Marcel Renoir- a house brand that was made by Belforte (Benrus).

    Case measures 34.3x41x10.75 including the domed crystal (case itself is very slim).

    The dial on this one is what made me buy it- it appears as a matte dark grey in sunlight but black in shade/indoors. Numerals and indices are raised and literally pop off the dial (pardon the dust on the crystal)

    Bright yellow tritium lume triangles at 3/6/9/12 match the hands giving the watch a slight resemblance to a Railmaster (squint hard- you will see it). It winds, sets and runs very well keeping excellent time, but I have not had it serviced. 02743832-8F31-4A9B-B683-A889C7AFFDB4.jpeg

    Price is $85 shipped within conus- out of the US we can discuss options. Payment via PayPal F&F or add 4% for regular PayPal and I can send a request. No returns unless grossly misrepresented.
    I buy far more than I sell but I have sold a few here and traded many, so have some feedback in the members section and I can provide references.

    Thanks OF for the space, any questions feel free to ask

    85 bucks for something that’s as pretty as a ranchero :eek: It’s not 01.04? Fantastic piece.

    This should not last long. GLWS.
