·As part of a wholesale consolidation and re-evaluation of my collection, I'm offering for sale my 1970s Tissot Seastar Navigator chronograph with Valjoux 7733 movement.
Condition-wise, I'm not sure you'll find a better example. Whilst it was NOS when I bought it, unfortunately I have added one or two scratches to the caseback and to the plexi. I haven't attempted to polish the crystal for fear of damaging the bezel, which as you may know, often have the numbers worn off on this model. The bezel on this is perfect. The brushing on the case is original and undamaged. The dial is superb, and the lume has aged nicely (but will still glow if you put it under bright light for a bit!). The watch keeps good time for a vintage watch - within a minute per day. The crown is a replacement from the service it had in 2014, but the original is also included (and is exactly the same anyway).
Straps - there is the Tissot crocodile strap I received with the watch - no idea if this is the original 1970s strap it came with, but it could be. There is also a Tissot corfam-style strap with original Tissot clasp, and the Heuerville black leather large-hole rally strap you see it on (which incidentally cost about £80 itself!)
Asking price is £950 (net to me) and will include shipping in the UK. References will be required unless you're using direct bank transfer. The watch will also be advertised elsewhere but offering to Calibre11 users first.
