My shop name is winebeerglasses, same as my former Etsy shop (see the last image). I have a perfect 5-star customer rating from my buyers at Etsy for five years. I left Etsy because Etsy's customer support is unbearable. I decided to migrate to Bonanza.
I build and restore vintage automatic watches as a hobby using my knowledge in precision engineering and aesthetics. All my watches are freshly lubricated, timegrapher regulated, and cleaned to restore the pleasure of wearing a vintage watch with its full functionalities and timing performance.
If you are looking for an affordable, high performance, Swiss Made, authentic 7750 automatic chronograph watch from a high end Swiss watch maker this one fits the bill. Maurice Lacroix is a top Swiss watch maker on par with Omega, Tag Heuer, etc. It has a genuine Valjoux ETA 7750 movement and a mother of pearl dial. The dial has some damages at the edge from 10 to 12 and the entire watch, fitted with a two-tone beads of rice bracelet from a vintage Seiko Sportmatic watch from 60s. This is what a vintage watch would look like. The bracelet can fit up to a 7.5" wrist.
The watch is 38 mm across without counting the crown and the pushers. It is 43 mm lug to lug and the thickness is 12.5 mm.
It has been fully serviced and everything works. The chronograph runs and resets to zero position. It keeps very precise time with the 28800 beats per hour rate, the modern gold standard for high end automatic watches.
For those who are not familiar with Valjoux 7750, now known as ETA 7750, it is the best or de facto automatic chronograph movement used by all expensive Swiss watch makers, such as Tag Heuer, Breitling, etc. for their automatic chronograph watches priced at $5000 or more. It is the same movement with some extra surface texture as decoration and some colorful screws. Do these extra "enhancements" improve the performance? Not at all.
ETA 7750 has a beat rate at 28800 beats per hour for very high time keeping precision.
The 25 jewel version of the 7750 movement has extra jewels mainly in the winding mechanism, not related to the timing performance.
Today, the watch market is flooded with so called Asian 7750 automatic chronograph movements. They are cheap, poor quality control, and do not last long.
This is a genuine Swiss made 17 jewels Valjoux ETA 7750 movement. Expect to pay over $400 for the movement alone.
The sale is final. I will provide 3-month free service warranty. Should any issue comes up, you send the watch back to me (you pay the shipping cost to me), and I will service the watch to its full working order and ship it back to you without charges.
