Best regards for a plausible answer

First, it's a "Chronograph" not a "Chronometer".

Second, a seller can ask whatever price they want. That doesn't mean it will actually sell. That is a pretty uncommon watch though. Too bad it's probably a redial.

 

He started by 1 sFr. now the watch is by 24k sFr (about 24k $)

 

Quite a fanciful dial.

 

I'm sure it's a redial, particularly obvious on the lower part - 7, 8 and 110 and the uneven red track at 60.

 

my Version with just the same serial number.

 

That's correct it's a Chronograph but not excluded that it is also a Chronometer .

 

No, it's not a chronometer. The movement says "UNADJUSTED" on it. Chronometers are adjusted to 5 positions.

 

Funny, only the first photo (of the dial) is showing up for me. I want to see the movement.

 

There's a string of pictures under the main one. Click on any of them to enlarge.

 

Yeah I saw those photos, but they were just black in Safari. Worked ok in Firefox. Thanks.

 

We've been having Safari woes at work too. Can't add attachments to emails, and sometimes can't even send the email regardless of having attachments or not.

Skynet is taking over!
