For sale this unique and rare Austin, made by Nivada, chronograph watch. It is powered by a manual winding Valjoux 7736, three registers chronograph movement, super clean and running strong, keeping good time. The original nice clean dial looks like new, with exception of few tiny grey spots at the very edge of it, which are almost unnoticeable at the naked eye. You probably can see them at the 200, 170, 100, 88 and 78 marks of the tachymeter scale. These marks are like transparent spots, as they didn't erase the numbers and marks of the dial. The chronograph works perfectly, returning to zero, as it is designed to. The case shows no scratches except for a few light ones in the case back. It is fitted with a new heavy stainless steel mesh bracelet. Clean crystal and bezel. All in all an excelente piece from the sixties in almost impecable condition. There is just a small flaw in the bezel, at 20 minutes mark, as you can see in the pictures.Free shipping in US and to the Ebay global shipping center, but insurance, which is recommended, must be paid by the buyer.
