FS: 1960's Baume & Mercier Chronograph

Up for sale today a 60's B&M chronograph a proper example of classic watch design.
Case: mostly untouched case showing signs of wear commensurate with age.
Dial: stunning deep charcoal grey (some may say almost tropical) dial untouched with raised applied hour markers.
Movement: venerable landeron 248 recently gone over by a respected watchmaker keeping time to within 0.23 sec/day good power reserve and all chrono function operating as they should. I can remove the case back for anyone who wants pics.
Bezel: is a friction bezel with painted markers ( no insert) some fading to the paint on the edges. Turns both ways :)
The watch is triple signed (dial, movement and case back) the pushers are clean and function perfectly. The crown is I believe original to the watch as it does show signs of wear. This is a truly gorgeous watch in the flesh and would make a great addition to anyone's collection.
Measures roughly 37mm without the crown by 42mm so wears well for a vintage watch. Pictures with a black perlon strap or optionally a period correct tropic style strap also available your choice.
I am asking a very reasonable $1000 OBO PayPal fees to you shipping by DHL negotiable in the price or registered post.

More pics on request.
