FS: FS: Vintage Roamer Stingray Chronograph Valjoux 72. Just Ser

This one has to move because I have some other watches in my sights.

So you want a watch with racing heritage but don't want a Heuer Autavia
So you want a legendary Valjoux 72 movement without buying a Daytona.
You want a gorgeous watch with amazing case construction.

I present to you; The Roamer Stingray Chronograph with Valjoux 72

The watch was worn by Björn Waldegard during his astonishing double-victory in 1969 and 1970 in the legendary Rally of Monte Carlo in his Porsche 911.

The watch presented here is in excellent shape, completely Original. Signed crown, Signed crystal.
And has just been serviced. (pictures of service available upon request).

Wonderful patina on the lume which has turned a deep custard-like colour. And a fabulous flawless dial.

Pictures tell more than a 1000 words:

Conditions of sale

I am NOT a professional watch seller and these watches are part of my private collection. Every watch is described to the best of my ablities. The watches are in running condition unless otherwise stated. I consider the pictures part of the description and do not accept refunds. I always recommend a service for vintage watches with no service history and as such i cannot guarantee the timekeeping of these pieces. Please ask any questions beforehand and I will try to answer them. Cheers
