Description: That's an iconic watch made in 1944 with the cal 27CHRO C12 T2 PC, the predecessor of cal 321, in fact the same caliber with a different name. It's one of the earliest you can find under this reference number! The movement was developed in 1942 together with Lemania. The watch for sale is all original and it's exactly the same like those used by the Argentinian Air Force after 1950 and other air forces! The same case, the radium dial with the same telemeter, the same radium sword hands etc! The exact same model has also been sold to the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale(F.A.I) to be used by pilots. But, what makes it much more rare than both variants it's the 'Turler' signed dial. I wasn't able to find another one in original condition! The silver radium dial is original, never repainted, it started to develop a mild creamy and even California patina. The sword radium hands are in excellent condition with no cracks. The movement is running excellent with -4 seconds per day and 275 degrees amplitude, it has been fully serviced in 06.2023. The case is in amazing condition. The watch comes with two bands, one vintage mint BoR which fits a 20.5cm wrist and one new leather strap. The look of the watch is completely different when the band gets switched. It has the original box! The size of the watch is 35x41mm. That's a really unique piece and a must have for any collector! I am a real collector, buying from me assures you the quality and care. I don't sell 'as is' watches, all my watches are ready to wear and serviced, that will spare of of a big expense in the coming years.

General terms and conditions: *I describe my watches with honesty and the best of my knowledge, I want all my buyers to have a smooth, transparent and pleasant transaction. If you have questions or other requests, please ask me before you buy. I don’t accept returns, partial refunds or buyer's remorse, so, if you are not sure you want to buy one of my watches, please don’t do it. **You are buying a vintage watch, you can’t expect to look as new unless is stated in the description. Pictures are part of the description, please study them carefully! Generally speaking, the watches are looking much better in real life than in the pictures because of the camera lens which pops out details that can’t be seen with the naked eye. If it’s something misrepresented by me, just send me a message, I will really appreciate your contribution. Vintage watches are not water protected, I don’t offer any guarantee about this. Vintage mechanical watches are not running like a Quartz, please do not expect to be perfect even if they are serviced and very well taken care of. The performance on the timegrapher must not be taken as a guarantee for future functionality. Although I pack my watches very carefully, issues may appear during shipping on long distances, the most common is the watch magnetisation, but, being sensitive and complex movements, in rare occasions other adjustments should be made by an experienced watchmaker. I am not responsible of ANY customs/import taxes. ***Please refrain from making ridiculous and uneducated offers. Check the market prices first. I am a deal maker, but only with serious people.
