Picked up a very nice Marina Militare 1950's style chrono quartz

Recommended Posts

Picked up this very nice looking 44mm MM 1950's Quartz Chrono. Price was a decent 64$.

 

The case, cg and pushers has a brushed finish, bezel and back are polished.

It has a very nice blue dial. The chrystal is mineral glass and slightly domed.

The watch comes with a decent "mid brown" leather strap and a "butterfly" clasp.

 

At 9 is the minute dial for the chrono. At 3 is a subdial for "military time" (24 hour).

The large second hand is for the chrono. So no ticking second hand to tell this is

a quartz movement. (unless you use the chrono of course) :D

 

Overall the watch looks well built and a very nice watch for the money. If you do not

mind quartz movements (wich I don't) this can be a very nice "beater".

 

Some pictures. (The dial looks even better in daylight).

I think 64$ is quite decent even for a quartz. It is a well built watch.

He's fine until something goes wrong, then beware....

 

There's a reason we haven't offered him a spot here.

 

To be honest, I really don't know why you'd buy from this guy in preference to Jackson Tse, whose service is far superior (and his pricing is very competitive too).

It says $93 USD on the site which is why I said its a bit pricey...if you paid $64 for it then its a good deal

Actually to see the lower prices create a user account on the watch site - manbushijie.com

 

Then you will see the lower prices.

 

However you should also upgrade here when able - PM greg_r
