FS: PVD Le Jour/Heuer Pasadena PLUS COMPLETE SPARES WATCH

Offered for sale is my Le Jour branded (but made by Heuer) PVD cased chronograph called by Heuer the 'Pasadena' or 'no-name' (I had one of those and they are the same except indeed there is no name).

No recent service history but running strong with all chrono functions working and resetting to zero with good timekeeping.

The PVD case shows great patina with uniform wear and grey colouring and no unsightly gashes or grazes - though there are a few nicks etc indicative of it's tool watch heritage.

The original plexi shows some minor scratches but these would easily be polished out - replacements are easy to find.

The dial and hands are in superb condition with great patina, and the red chrono hand is perfect.

Also offered is an identical spares watch I picked up on ebay to faciliate in the restoration - everything is all there (though not actually working though I was assured this was possible by my watchmaker), one of the subdial hands has come loose but can be easily be refixed, but it's been butchered by some idiot that tried to get the case open with deep scratches to the back....the pushers are good, but the crown is a plastic Tissot so not original. It actually looks like it was in great condition until said butchering!

However find another case (there's several on ebay at the moment) and you've got yourself another complete watch!

Also offered is a fantastic Giuliano Italian hand made leather strap made specifically for this watch. The stitching matches the dial perfectly (thanks my friend Giuliano great job!).

All in all this is super cool watch that can be worn anywhere, anytime - with a spares package that may come in handy in the future! I've really loved owning and wearing this one.

Offered at $1100US OVNO.

Please email me - thank you.

Nathan
