    Evening all

    These are becoming increasingly difficult to find in good and unrestored condition, reference number 176.0015 this is often referred to the Mark 4.5, the case is more barrel shaped and has a unique integrated bracelet .

    This piece is circa 1977 and very honest the crystal has no marks or chips and the dial and hands are all correct, I don’t believe the watch has ever been refinished or messed about with, the bracelet is stretch free and very tight, the case likewise is very sharp and overall I would say it is an excellent example of an increasingly desirable watch.

    The movement in this is the very robust 1045 and functions as it should, these automatic chronographs really are well made and this example is in excellent condition both cosmetically and mechanically.

    As with many vintage sports watches these are increasingly popular but still remain great value when compared to other speedmasters but for how long that remains the case is anyone’s guess so grab this while you can

    Although the watch is showing some marks and dinks on the case and around the bezel I believe the fact it is in such remarkable and original condition will only add to the long term value of the piece as prices for these (as many other speedmaster models are now doing) will inevitably continue to climb.

    £2150

    The watch will be shipped ParcelPro full insured, the watch will be supplied with the same warranty we offer through the site. I would be happy to pick up a conversation on the phone or via PM and interested parties are most welcome to view the watch at our offices in Cheshire.


    Many thanks Tony Wooderson

    "These are becoming increasingly difficult to find in good and unrestored condition, reference number 176.0015 this is often referred to the Mark 4.5 as it is identical in every way to the mk IV but the case is more barrel shaped and has a unique integrated bracelet "

    Tony, looks a lovely watch but the mkIV has a 1040 movement not the 1045.
