I'm really enjoying scanning through your collection! Nice vintage time period and scope! I aspire to this!

Thanks so much! I love these vintage jump hours, but they seldom came with good movements. This one has a Baumgartner 582, a fairly late pin-pallet from the '70s. There are worse movements, but this one is by no means great.
As a result I consider many of them overpriced. I look on eBay and see similar ones trading for 200 USD and sometimes even a little more. Try avoid non-runners.
But when they run, boy are they a joy to own and use!
❤️ it - my baby - Lucerne Sports Tachometer (Vintage 60/70's)Found this watch in my mum's loft. Had it when I was a kid, not been used in 40+ years! Picked it up gave it a shake (not expecting it to work!) kicked straight back into life! That is real "quality" from an "ordinary Swiss watch" really "built to last", what is more environmentally friendly than a still working 50 year old product?
