Description: 1960s Favre-Leuba Chronograph Hand Wind Vintage Chronograph 36.5mm Watch 1960s Favre-Leuba Chronograph Hand Wind Vintage Chronograph 36.5mm Watch This Favre-Leuba Chronograph from the 1960s is an amazing find. From an up-and-coming collectable brand that was at the top of their game in the 1960-70s, this Favre-Leuba piece features a lovely aged silver dial with telemetre, applied indicies, and an applied Favre-Leuba logo at 6 oclock. The dial has lume plots at each of the indicies. The hands are rectangular and lumed. The lume is aged and is no longer functional (as expected). At the heart of this watch is a Favre-Leuba Valjoux 23 laternal clutch column wheel movement. This series of high-end Valjoux movements were used by Rolex, Heuer, Breitling, etc. Famously, Rolex used a related movement in their vintage Daytonas. The movement in this piece is impeccable and the pushers and chronograph are smooth to operate. The watch features a 30 minute register and can track seconds and minutes up to 30. The watch features a new dive crystal, a finely cleaned dial and hands, an ultra-sharp restored original case, a new high-end leather oiled leather strap with stitching, and a spectacular Favre-Leuba Valjoux 23 movement that has been overhauled and restored to OEM specs. The watch is in beautiful restored condition as per our extensive restoration and authentication process . This Favre-Leuba chronograph is powered by the Favre-Leuba Valjoux 23 , a laternal clutch column wheel movement, which runs at 18,000 vph. The movement is hand wind and has a good power reserve. The watch is 36.5mm in diameter and has a 19mm strap size. The The caseback and crown have new gaskets and combined with the new dive crystal, this watch features mid-range water resistance. Take home this wonderful Favre-Leuba chronograph today! As with all our restored pieces we sell, this 1960s Favre-Leuba Chronograph comes with our zero-headache warranty .

EmmyWatch was founded by Emily Newsom as a way to make luxury vintage watches more accessible to regular watch enthusiasts. Vintage watches are amazing but can often come with undisclosed problems, unknown history, bad service jobs, and a non-existent warranty–we started EmmyWatch to change that. Unlike many watch stores, EmmyWatch is not a watch reseller. EmmyWatch restores watches and sells restored watches to watch enthusiasts. All of the watches we sell have been thoroughly restored inside-and-out by Emily, our master watchmaker, company founder, and vintage watch lover. At EmmyWatch we believe in restoring vintage watches to near-OEM specs while still maintaining originality and authenticity. The result of our unique restoration process is that we can sell restored, authenticated, daily-wearable, and reliable vintage watches, with a zero-headache warranty to every-day watch enthusiasts with an AD-like buying experience.

Watches must be in the same condition they were sold in and must be packaged in the original packaging.

To ensure our customers have a zero-headache experience we sell watches with a 1 year warranty. The warranty covers any manufacturing, functional, or restoration defects for a period of 1 year. If there are any manufacturing, functional, or restoration defects with a watch within reason, our in-house watchmakers will resolve the issues as soon as possible at our expense. The warranty generally does not cover damage caused by watch misuse or customer negligence. We always replace all of the seals in a watch, when applicable, but in general we do not guarantee our watches to be completely waterproof to modern standards (swimable) unless explicitly listed in the product listing. The water resistance rating we give the watch is approximate and cannot be guaranteed under the warranty. If in doubt, please contact us on eBay or on our website https://www.emmywatch.com and we will be happy to help answer any questions you may have regarding your warranty.
