FS: Vintage Buren Chrono *PIC*

For sale is my vintage Buren chronograph.

Condition is very good+. 7733 movement cleaned, oiled and timed within the past six months by Craig at Chronodeco--all functions work perfectly. The pictures speak for themselves.

Interesting detail...upon close inspection of the dial (can't get it in a photo) it's evident this watch (or just the dial) started life as a Vantage and underwent a (factory?) redial to become a Buren. When magnified you can barely see the Vantage logo (much like some Hueur's that became Zodiac's) outlined under the lacquer.

***In the interest of full disclosure, the dial is almost perfect save a tiny crack in the lacquer between 8-9 o'clock--barely visible to the naked eye.

I have no sales history on this site but can reached by phone, text or E-mail. Happy to answer any questions and provide whatever references possible.

Price is 800USD O.B.O. (CONUS shipping cost will be discussed upon sale) Will be shipped on a Squinky black vented rally strap not the strap in the photo

***Sorry, had some difficulty uploading photos. If interested, I can E-mail more upon request (movement, case back, etc.)

Thank you,
