FS: Vintage LeJour PVD triple register Chronograph Valjoux 7750

Clean and presentable Vintage LeJour PVD Chronograph - Triple Register Valjoux 7750 DAY/DATE

This chronograph watch has a beautiful black dial with hour markers that are aged perfectly with the right amount of patina. All the PVD is there with a exception of slightly missing next to 4 o'clock as seen in the pictures, these Vintage PVD watches look like they are flat gunmetal grey instead of shiny black seen on modern watches. The crown shows some pitting. The case back has a slightly deep scratch from either previous owner or a careless watchmaker, I tried opening it to take pics but it does budge didn't want more scratches. The watch takes 19mm straps but I managed to fit this barely used 20mm Rally strap to the watch using 19mm spring bars.

The only fault or flaw in the watch is the crystal it is scratched, which can be replaced I attempted to polish the crystal a long time ago which gave me decent result. Its slightly foggy or milky at certain angels but it’s hard to capture by camera and it not visible in most angles it also does not affect legibility or visibility. But its has fine scratches all over the crystal.

Unknown service history, but watch works well and all chronograph functions work and reset as they should.

As you might already know the Valjoux 7750 is one of the most well-known and by far the most successful chronograph caliber of all time it has been used for over 30 years on most of the leading brands such as IWC, Tudor, Tag Heuer, Breitling, Baume & Mercier, Monte Blanc, Fortis, Bell & Ross, Omega among many others.

As this is a Vintage time piece it does not come with guarantees and sold as is. The watch keeps good time but I have not timed it for accuracy. I tend to overstate the watch faults to protect myself in case of picky buyers. Normally the watch turns up better than expected of my description. I did my best to describe this amazing watch as best as I could, Feel free to ask for any details.

$495 (Net to me)

I accept PayPal and Money Transfer. Will ship internationally - plenty of reference available

Does not come with box or papers, Your getting the Watch and the Strap only

These are also known as Poor man Heuers as it is identical to Heuer and Porsche Design this was made by Orfina in the same factories the only difference was the branding on the dial, and now this is a fraction of the price of a Heuer or Porsche Design.

I’m a watch collector and have a many vintage watches and this needs a new home.
