Well, it's been a while. Need to thin down the herd a bit, so I can make room for some heavy incomers (needless to say, much has changed in my collection over these last years). Less time spent on the forum as a consequence of less time for watches in general... So - selling from my collection a somewhat recently acquired Juvenia Arithmo. Got it in a trade, along with some other vintage watches, but didn't really get a chance to wear it, so letting it go for a more passionate collector or someone who intends to wear such a piece of history on his or her wrist. Case - very likely original condition, edges are still decently sharp and plenty of dings and scratches attest to the rich history of this watch. Approx. 36mm excluding crown. 18mm lugs (more like 17mm). Caseback - writing still intact, decent condition for its age (can't exclude some prior polishing, but then again it does look good to my eyes. Bezel - one of the selling points of this watch is the sliding rule system embedded in the bezel system. All original, with original glass and markings. So-so condition, please refer to the photos. I sincerely hope you're not going to use it for actual calculations (I know I certainly can't, since I can barely see such small writing anyways). The ruler bezel slides smoothly as it should. Crown - original crown, unsigned, can't say much about it Crystals - All original glass, in decent shape for the age. I've noticed some examples missing some of the outer glass rings, this one is complete. I've taken some macro shots that greatly enhance all imperfections. Dial - original, in aged condition. All script is intact. Please take a good look at the photos and judge for yourselves. Hands - correct to this model, in decent shape for the age. Movement - hand-wound AS 1180 movement, in working condition. Did not time the watch, nor do I intend to do it. It's a 70+ years old watch that wasn't serviced while in my possession. If a buyer wants me to, I can wind it and time it (note that it does not have a hacking mechanism). To be on the safe side, I'd say Price: [REDUCED] 3300 EUR (was 4600), EU sale only. Shipping costs to be agreed on, but not included at this price. SWIFT bank transactions or other methods that do not incur taxes on my end are possible (Wise/Revolut). Trades: Not really interested in trades, but shoot me a private message and I will reply politely. I am not keen on selling the watch, so not in a hurry to sell. Item is located in Romania, within the EU. All duties or any other additional taxes are the sole responsibility of the buyer. I will provide step-by-step pictures/scans of the packaging and shipping process but once the package leaves my hands I have no power over it. I am a buyer (was selling at some point in the past, but haven't for a while now) on Ebay under the same username for over 20 years and have 100% positive feedback with over 1000 transactions (and many watches shipped to multiple locations (USA, Canada, the UK, the Netherlands etc.). For any other trust-related issues I can provide further credentials or proof of identity. I also have several references on WUS, both as a seller and as a buyer. I can provide reference for other transactions as well (Omega 2254.50, Heuer Montreal sold to a very reputable dealer etc.). All my transactions are, however, pretty old https://omegaforums.net/search/25144270/?q=gwzymytk&o=date&c[node]=10 https://www.watchuseek.com/search/7...t&c[child_nodes]=1&c[nodes][0]=63&o=relevance I cannot take any returns for this item unless grossly misrepresented by me in the description and/or pictures. Please observe carefully, read the entire description and ask all questions prior to committing. No warranty. Thank you OF for hosting my ad! All proceedings will go towards watches and watch-related stuff
Thank you, Bardamu! Now reduced to EUR 4300. Make me an offer, I might just say yes At worst, I'll politely decline...
When I was first starting out I wanted one of these. Ran across a couple for sale, never pulled the trigger. This has a lovely vintage glow. Best of luck with the sale.
Thank you, Larry! I know this is a niche watch; some collector will see the ad at some point and decide it’s exactly the piece missing from the collection Reduced to EUR 4000. This is for a quick EU sale, and it includes the cheapest tracked delivery option.
I was asked for pictures of the dial in daylight, so here they are (the request was for “sunlight”, but winter disagreed). Make me a reasonable offer and let’s get this one sold this week!
Reduced to 3500 EUR. This is well below my costs, so won't include shipping at this point. If it won't sell at this price, I'll keep it.
crazy nice and rare watch, at a very affordable price! I recently picked up a twin and I have to say, these are reeeeally underrated
Thank you for the praise! Indeed, a very nice and wearable watch. Not that much love for vintage, lately... Will probably end up keeping it (not that I'm complaining)
