    SOLD
    Up for sale is a vintage Wakmann triple date chronograph. Chrono works/stops/resets very smoothly. Day/date/month change appropriately. The tritium patina is nice and even. I have attached instructions on setting the day/date.
    I could not get the caseback open (3 attempts and I gave up :( ), but the movement is a Valjoux 72 triple date (72c or 730?). As far as issues, there are 1) scratches on the acrylic 2) a few light marks on the dial (most significantly under 60 in the 9 o'clock subdial/edge of the dial at 6 and 3 o'clock and 3) some slight fading on the month disk. Lugs are 19mm wide and the diameter w/o crown is ~36mm. Service history is unknown. Selling to to fund a Vulcain Nautical Cricket purchase.
    $1050 including PayPal fees and shipping in the U.S. International is plus $45.

    Nice panda dial! It would be a Valjoux 72C.
