FS: FOR SALE 1950s Pre Heuer Leonidas Chronograph *PIC*

For sale is my lovely little Leonidas Twin Register Chronograph from the 1950s, before they were purchased by Heuer in the 1960s.

Size is approx 35mm but it certainly has a bit of wrist presence due to the watch being almost all dial. And what a dial. Absolutely lovely condition with an amount of Patina that only adds to the character of this fine watch. The hands have turned Copper over the years.

The case is in excellnt condition for the age with no signs of overpolishing etc. The manual wind Landeron 148 movement winds smoothly and the chronograph operates exactly as it should.

The watch is 18mm between the lugs and will come with 2 Vintage style straps, Dark Brown B&S and Mid Brown Vintage Straps.it.

Lots more pictures available.

I'd £850 for this which will include recorded and tracked shipping in the UK. Overseas buyers would have to contribute towards shipping.
