    Up for sale is an absolutely pristine example of Tudor's last line of automatic chronographs from the 1990's. I bought this a few months ago due to it's condition and full set, but have found that it's not getting worn and I need to re-circulate my watch funds since I have a problem and cannot stop buying others [looks at the crowd for support].

    Onto the condition report:

    Case: Case is in nearly perfect condition, with only a few surface scratches on the left side. This case is my favorite iteration of the Tiger chronos, with brushed lugs and a case shape that closely resembles the modern Daytona case. Caseback (though not pictured) is crisp and has a protective sticker affixed.

    Dial / Handset: Dial and hands are in perfect shape and exhibit perfectly matching shades of lume. All lume dots on the indices are present and in perfect shape. The inverse panda dial is glossy (as can be partially seen in the various pictures) and obviously draws inspiration from the Daytona (shown in the second to last picture...because I can ;)).

    Functionality: Watch appears to be in good mechanical shape based on my extremely limited wear - chronograph starts, stops, and resets as it should. I don't formally time my watches, but in the handful of times I've worn it, it has kept very accurate time. The watch is sold as-is.

    Bracelet: Tudor Oyster bracelet with zero stretch and all links present. Part of the reason I didn't wear it much was because the bracelet was so large and I was too lazy to remove the links. My loss is your gain.

    My price is $3,500 net to me with payment via PayPal (sent "Friends & Family," add 3% if that option is not used) or direct bank wire. US sale strongly preferred. Face-to-face in Chicago is also welcome for local buyers. Finally, I have plenty of references available as a buyer and seller that I can provide if necessary. I can be reached via PM or at [email protected].
