second Quartz Movement
SOLD OUT, NO MORE STOCK, SORRY
*LNIB
= Like New in Box, I have worn this watch during my Swiss vacation 2003 during
ca. 10 days, because honestly, I could not resist its great looks. The watch
sits extremely comfy on the wrist despite its size and weight (75 grams)
Outer Bezel is turning, that was quite a surprise to me, I
never thought the cool designed bezel would be rotating. Subdials for Minutes,
1/10th seconds and running seconds. Big chrono central seconds. Great looking
hands, hour hand shows SECTOR logo while reminding of a Mercedes hand
Great integrated pushers and great overall design, no
wonder they patented that Italian design
I really love those integrated pushers, they are barely
recognizable as such from the front!
SECTOR signed buckle, strap loop, inner strap and crown
Comes with nice SECTOR outer and inner box and all papers
(warranty is open, you fill in the purchase date)
Great luminous Numerals and Hands!
Since Bill from Texas inquired if that watch would fit an 8 inch wrist, I
decided to check and found that the battery had expired. So I "invented" this
system to open the case back without problems: Use a
rubber band, attatch it the buckle and sling it around the watch case holder and
connect it like in the picture to the other end of the rubber strap. Then one
has good access with a Jaxa Universal Case Opener e.g. Or of course also with a
professional case opener like the Bergeon 5700Z.
The open watch showing the Renata 394 battery which seems
to power this watch for ca. 3 years if you do not play with the chronograph
function during 12 hours daily :) (a joke only watch idiot savants will
understand)
I found a nicely oiled new O-ring and sufficient oil or
silicon grease around the case back's thread. And the nice marks of the person
that must have replaced the battery the first time around. This shows the low
power consumption of the ETA G10. Runs on a R394 from April 2002 to May 2005!
That person and I
took great care not to leave unjustifiable opening marks on the case back! What seems
like a bit of dirt at the 9 o'clock position turned out to be a bit of speck
which was very easy to remove with a fine watchmaker screwdriver. The watch is
in excellent condition! Inside and outside, very happy to have it opened today
and thanks Bill for initiating this! The case back is now open and I will close
it only when the watch is being sold and replace a fresh Renata 394 battery

Why I think this
WATCH is interesting: On a side note: I really love this watch and it has been a great companion during my Swiss vacation. Running extremly accurate, did not show any deviation from the Swiss TV News clock during my vacation. Back in Switzerland I actually never planned to sell this watch, I was sure it was going to be a keeper. But back in Bangkok, I just realized, I have TOO MANY watches already. So I really rather offer a fellow WIS a good deal then to store it away with too many watches getting far too little wrist time! I am not giving this watch away easily, it is really a great allrounder. |
