Description
Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver with Valjoux 23 movement.
The watch is in very good condition and appears correct, with the exception of a service crown.
The 38mm case looks unpolished with only a few small marks commensurate with age. The lugs are very sharp and the bevels are clearly present, with no signs of polishing. The hand lume is original, there is a small crack in the hour hand, but the lume appears stable. The dial plots are all present and both have aged to a very nice chestnut patina.
The movement was serviced by Simon Freese on 01/09/2022 and has 12 months transferable warranty from that date.
Comes on a new 20mm leather racing band as seen.
This reference is featured on Chronomaster Only (page 196) and as mentioned all parts seem correct.
