http://fs1.directupload.net/images/user/141205/37ypbepp.jpg

: Up for sale comes an ultra rare piece of racing history. This large
: black Valjoux 7733 Chronograph (40 mm without crown) is named
: “Renault Gordini elf” on the dial and has very unique orange
: colored subdial hands. I guess it was a special/limited edition
: made for the famous racing team Renault Gordini elf.

:
:

: Gordini was a famous French sports car manufacturer and performance
: tuner, established in 1946 by Amédée Gordini, nicknamed
: "Le Sorcier" (The Sorcerer). Gordini became a division
: of Renault in 1968. Due to the name on the dial I guess it was
: built before Gordini was merged with Alpine to Renault Sport in
: 1976.

:
:

: On the back you can clearly read Nr. 57. Black case is in good
: condition, silver crown and pushers, glass has some scratches
: and the unsigned black bracelet shows some signs of wearing. All
: functions are working, reset to zero is O.K. Service history
: unknown.

:
:

: I did some research when I got this timepiece some years ago, but
: couldn´t find further informations. So if you are focused on
: racing chronographs and want to add this unique piece of motor
: sport history to your collection, this is your chance. Watch is
: based in Germany.

: Price is 750 € plus shipping.

: It's my first sale here. I'm serious private collector from
: Germany. Bank Wire is preferred but Paypal is OK + 2% to the
: buyer. stass (a) stasskomm.de

: Many thanks
: Georg
