This is not one of those oversized, mass-produced, cheaply made watches you see everywhere. It’s a beautifully built piece of horological history from a time when mechanical design was at its peak — the 1960s and 70s. After that, most watches became partially or fully electronic. ? Time to wear something different. Something that lasts.
