    Hello everyone!

    First sales post/watch sale so let's see if I can do it right on the first try.

    Up for sale is a relatively simple Vulcain 17 jewel movement watch. I picked this up a few months ago and am not wearing it very much, so I figured it could go to a better home. It has a gorgeous dial with an outstanding sunburst finish, sub-seconds and applied indices. The indices at 3, 9, & 12 have some sort of jewel/gem. It is a 34mm(excluding crown) chromed case that I would say is in moderate to good condition. There is a small section on the "bezel" around 12 o'clock that looks to be worn away slightly and a similar effect between the lugs below 6 o'clock(unseeable with a strap on). However it is virtually unnoticeable unless you look for it. Additionally the chome on crown is partially worn off(see photos)and I do not believe it to be original.
    The interlug width is 16mm.

    The movement looks clean and is running strong, however service history is unknown and a service is recommended (as always for vintage).

    I am asking 110 USD via PayPal(gift if possible to avoid fees), shipping included CONUS & internationally at cost to buyer. Returns accepted if not described accurately.

    Please take a look at the photos as they are part of the description. If you have any questions please feel free to PM me!

    Also I will add more photos of the insides at request however I cannot get the case back off at the moment. More photos can be seen in this thread when I first found it: https://omegaforums.net/threads/vulcain-thoughts.45012/#post-532845

    Thanks for looking!

    -Jake
