A gents 1940s Union Special chronograph
A gents 1940s Union Special chronograph.
The watch has a Venus 170 hand-winding movement which is working nicely. Breitling also used the Venus 170 in some of their chronographs.
The watch measures 31.5mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is plated with a snap-on stainless steel case back. There is some wear and marking to the plate. The winding crown is a later replacement.
The lens is in good condition.
The black dial is signed Union Special and it has two subsidiary dials, the top one for recording up to 45 minutes and the lower one for constant seconds. The hour and minutes hands appear to be the originals although they have been re-painted at some stage.
The chronograph feature is operated by pressing the top button to start and stop, and the bottom button to re-set (the chrono hand re-sets just a fraction to the left of zero).
A new black leather strap has been fitted. ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (excluding Northern Ireland).
Please contact us before placing international orders so that we can advise of shipping prices and to see if customs regulations allow us to post watches to your country.
The international buyer is responsible for paying any import duties and taxes.
All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.
Credit / debit card purchases can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the \'Buy Securely\' button on each listing page.
We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.
