This watch is truly a time machine, with a fully restored vintage Valjoux 23 VZ movement ready to take you on a journey through history. With a production run that spanned 58 years, from 1916 to 1974! This hand-wound chronograph is deservedly one of the most iconic timekeeping mechanisms in history. The Valjoux 23's longevity is a testament to the durability, reliability, and precision of its original design. It’s also one of the world’s most beautiful classic column-wheel chronograph movements, incorporating Willy Breitling's dual push-button design. It remains highly sought-after even today.
