·This is definitely one you don’t see every day - a midcentury Gubelin chronometer with a very sweet linen dial!
Catch and release for me unfortunately, just not getting the wrist time it deserves in my current rotation, so hoping to find a good home for this beauty!
(Pictured on my 6.5 inch wrist.)
Incredible design from a historic brand, very cool to see their own watches pop up (though nice to see them double branded on Pateks!) Especially cool to see them with a chronometer movement. I’ve been geeking out over this one, definitely a lot of watch nerd cred here!
Wears very well - 34.5MM, 20MM lugs, just added a brand new leather strap for this that I think accents the aged lume really well. The linen dial is fantastic, has taken on a unique patina that changes depending on the angle.
No service history that I know of, but winds sets and runs very well, including the crown pull quick date adjustment. Movement also looks very clean, see pictures attached, and in my experience it is keeping time within about five seconds a day.
*EDIT to include movement information mentioned by other members below, this is a Gubelin branded Eterna matic movement - a beautiful thing!
Priced at $700 *NOW $650, which will include fully insured shipping anywhere in the US.
Payment via Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, or Wire. PayPal might be possible with references. No returns unless misrepresented, and it absolutely will not be! I am a passionate collector, and I treat buyers the way I want to be treated when I’m the buyer!
Thanks for looking, and thanks to OF for the space!
