Dating this Watch
It's hard to date this Watch exactly but I feel this Watch is around 1965-1970.
Movement
Super Quality Landeron Calibre 248 Manual Wind Chronograph Movement, with 30 minute Recorder.
This Calibre of Movement uses the Top Pusher to start/restart the Chrono function and the Bottom one to Stop/Reset the Chrono.
Timekeeping
*NOT Serviced by us at GungaDin Watches*
The Movement is wonderful and Clean whilst ticking away strongly and keeping Excellent time, this was Serviced July last year and paperwork is available, however as it was not Serviced by the GungaDin watchmaker, I do not offer Warranty.
Dial
Awesome Cool Slate Grey Radium Dial
mondaine
17 Jewels
Incabloc
Ra Swiss Made Ra
The Dial is in Awesome Vintage Condition with No real wear at all, which is remarkable when you consider this Chaps age!!
Fantastic Dial, reminiscent of the Universals of that Period.
Marked Swiss Made and Ra for the presence of Radium within the Hands and Hour Markers, which still glows weakly when charged.
This is the original Untouched 50 or so year old Dial that left the Mondaine Factory back in the 60s/70s and I am a real fan of these Unmolested Dials, especially in this sort of wonderful condition.
THIS IS NOT A REDIAL!!!!
Case and Bezel
Quality Case, all Stainless Steel.
The Case is in Excellent Vintage Condition for the Nature of this Vintage, a few Age Related marks on the usual places, but nothing major, edges still nice and sharp.

This Case was rated at 20 ATM back in the Day, it is now a Vintage Timepiece, it has NOT been tested for Water Resistance and if you wish to Submerge this Watch, you will need to have the Watch Professionally Resealed before doing so!!
