Hi all, up for sale is a vintage Croton Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver powered by the Landeron 248. Case is very clean with original chamfers present, great glossy black dial with very attractive creamy even tritium and matching hands.
Condition per the photos and as follows:
Case: 38mm stainless steel case in excellent condition. The case is extremely clean with only very light wear as shown and the case retains its original chamfers. The crown appears to be a Wittnauer signed replacement, and the pushers appear original.
Bezel: 60 minute bidirectional timer bezel in good vintage condition with minor scratching and color fading as shown. The bezel overall has faded to a great charcoal color that contrasts with the dial nicely.
Dial/Hands: Original dial and handset in excellent condition as shown. The tritium in the hour plots and hands have faded to a great even creamy patina with only very small spots of discoloration. The minutes subdial features a highlighted red countdown area for regatta timing, and the printing all shows a heavy serif with a cool vintage feel.
Caseback: Original solid caseback in excellent condition with only minor wear around the edges of the tool grooves. Caseback is marked with the serial number 903006 and reference number 105 9816. The caseback has the same heavy serif font as the dial.
Crystal: Domed acrylic crystal in like new condition with no scratches, scrapes, chips, or cracks.
Movement: Original Landeron 248 manual wind chronograph movement in excellent condition. Movement is extremely clean and all functions work as they should including the chronograph start, stop, and reset. The watch keeps very good time although the service history is unknown.
Bracelet/Strap: New distressed leather bomber jacket style strap with SS buckle.
Accessories: None, sold as watch only.
