Gents 1960s Wega chronograph wrist watch
![](http://staticaz.antiquesatlas.com/images/loading_new.gif)
Gents 1960s Wega chronograph wrist watch.
The watch has a Swiss 17 jewel Landeron 248 hand-winding movement which is working nicely.
The watch measures 36mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is chrome plated and it is in beautiful condition, just a little wear to the back.
The lens is in lovely condition (quite a lot of reflection showing in the photos).
The signed dial is in its original finish with original hands. Two subsidiary dials, one for constant seconds and the other to record up to 30 minutes. This second dial has large markers at three, six and nine minutes. These were aimed at the business man who made international telephone calls which were very expensive at the time. The calls were rounded to chargeable chunks of three minutes and so watchmaking companies came up with this scale to help people control the duration of their conversation. This recording dial re-sets just to the left of zero.
The dial is signed Wega, a brand name registered by Wega Watch SA of Grenchen, Switzerland, in 1950.
A later leather strap has been fitted.
The watch comes in a new presentation box.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE.
Please contact us for international shipping prices.
The Vintage Wrist Watch Company operates on a Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU) basis which means that the international buyer is responsible for any import duties, taxes & customs which may be necessary to release an order from international customs. Tax and import duty varies from country to country so we recommend you check with your local tax office to see if any fees will be payable. If the customer refuses to pay any duty and customs charges and the parcel is returned to sender all shipping and associated charges will be deducted from any refund.
Due to Customs regulations, we are unable to send watches / precious metals to certain countries. If you are unsure about your country’s regulations, please contact us and we can check for you. Any orders from prohibited countries will be refunded, less any Paypal fees which are non-refundable.
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.
