First version of Favre Leuba's Sea Sky from early to mid 60s before the more commonly seen 2nd version with square cushion case. Watch is running well, keeping good time, and all chrono functions work as they should.  Could use some cosmetic TLC but is still very wearable as is. Recently purchased as a project but need funds for another purchase that just came up.  Comes on black leather strap.Condition:Case: Has wear all over, crown and 1 pusher have been replaced.Dial: Black dial, good condition with some oxidation.Cyrstal: Clear plexi, minor wear if anyHands: Original hands are in good condition with the exception of the hour hand. Hour hand lume is partially missing. Lume appears green in photos but is actually a beige color, same with the bezel triangle.Bezel/insert: Hard hit taken at 40 marker see pics, otherwise in nice shape. Bi-directional bezel turns fully but is tight in some spots and loose in others.Movement: Very clean, signed bridge, winds nicely and keeping good time, chrono hands reset to zero.Please see pics for details and feel free to contact me with any questions. Thank you.
