Chronographe Suisse - Valjoux 7733 - Reverse Panda - No...

Exclusive Piece: Vintage 1970s Cushion-Case Chronograph 38mm – Blue Panda Dial – Valjoux 7733 / 17 Jewels Incabloc Technical Sheet Era: 1970s Case: Cushion-square gold-plated cushion case with satin-finish top and brushed sides Dimensions: 38 mm wide (excluding crown) x about 40 mm lug-to-lug (Wears very well on the wrist thanks to the square shape) Dial: "Sterile" (no branding) argenté/champagne with soleil finish, dark blue contrast chronograph sub-dials (Blue Reverse Panda), applied gold indices, peripheral tachymeter and telemeter scales Movement: Manual-wind mechanical movement, 17 jewels, Incabloc shock protection (Valjoux 7733-type architecture) Case back: Stainless steel with screw-down case back (Stainless Steel Back, Antimagnetic, Dustproof) Strap: Brand new brown leather with gold-plated pin buckle Watch Description Rare and fascinating vintage mechanical chronograph dating from the 1970s, distinguished by the unmistakable 38 mm gold-plated square cushion-case design. The geometric shape gives the watch a bold, modern presence on the wrist, superior to the classic 38 mm round watches. The aesthetic centerpiece is the bi-compax "Panda" style dial: light base with soleil highlights, tritium/gold tone hands and indices, and two deep blue sub-dials (continuous seconds at 9 o'clock and chronograph minute counter at 3 o'clock). The dial is framed by a double scale for speed and distance measurement (tachymeter and telemeter). Inside beats an excellent Swiss manual-wind chronograph movement with 17 jewels and Incabloc shock protection (Valjoux 7733-based structure), known for its robustness, precision, and ease of maintenance. Condition Report Case and Plating: In excellent vintage condition, with the original brushed finish on the case clearly visible and intact gold plating. Dial and Crystal: Very clean dial, free of patina; glass in excellent condition with no visible scratches. Movement: Mechanism lubricated and visually very clean, no oxidation on chronograph levers. This is a wonderful chronograph with a horizontal clutch Valjoux 7733 movement; the chronograph can be started when the mainspring is at least 20% wound. Wishing everyone a wonderful auction!
