Hi-fi project- you are speaking my other language! 🍿
Seller sent an unsolicited offer on this for €260 (was in my watch list)- not bad for what it is. He may take a counter offer- but I haven't tried it as I am flush in divers.

Gone already. Not bad if it went for the price the seller offered you
I'd like to find out the exact movement used in these watches, by dates of the Technos brand changing hands.
If any were manufactured in Japan, and it appears there were, a commonly available Japanese movement might have been used.
I'd like to be able to bring one back from the dead by simply switching out the movement for a modern recently manufactured equivalent.
If I ran across one with very good or better exterior but abused innards at a low price of course.
I found two very different images identified as Technos Skylight movements.
Here’s a quick shot of the movement in mine. Looks high quality finish of fairly standard caliber. Others more knowledgeable will no doubt contribute. I really like this model a lot....
Do you see any calibre reference to do a cross check on ranft?
Funky one in the UK with a nice ETA. Could stay low but who knows. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/353241534253
Anyone know anything about Foresta? https://www.ebay.com/itm/143802774203

For those interested in the Technos Skylight I did a post on Chronopedia here....https://chronopedia.club/Technos_Sky_Light
More information on these wanted - lets make that page the go-to ref for these great watches (but hold on till I get a black dial one first!)
Arrived...in 4 days from Tokyo. Amazing. Unpolished. Flawless dial. Perfect crystal. I am seriously impressed. Will be looking for a black dial version now. Lovely bracelet. On the wrist. Wow! And I’m in for $215. As good or better than a Ccase Connie imho.
Red wine and EBay. Oh dear.
