Vintage Victorinox Chrono

Today I'm wearing this vitange/new Victorinox Swiss, Military Hanowa Chrono SA8162. I won this on a bid a few months ago. It is 36mm, but wears like a 34mm do to the short lug to lug. 18mm lugs, it has Saphire Chrystal, 100m WR, day date, and 30m timing complication, with Dimonds on the bezel marking the hrs, applied indexes and lume, and 3 Jewels Swiss quartz movement. Thought it was a very unique vintage watch. I wish I new the year of production.

Victorinox and Swiss Military Hanowa are 2 different manufacturers.

Very interesting. I'm not into diamonds but I love hidden lugs and overall very cool.

Interesting- do you have a link to more info? I've owned both but was unaware that they collaborated on any watches. This one is very different from any Victorinox that I've ever seen.

I won a bid from a Vintagewatch seller. I have various pictures and info from when he posted it.

Pretty sure VWS is incorrect as there in no indication on the watch of any Victorinox involvement.

Either way-Swiss Military Hanowa makes great watches.
