This is an absolute first here at Hodinkee.This 1969 Omega Chronostop watch is actually positioned to be read in a landscape fashion, under the replica Breitling A39362-C5 Men's watch wrist of a racecar driver.Basically, imagine the face of the watch turned 90 degrees from normal viewing position so that the driver can maintain control of the steering wheel while glancing at his watch.not a bad idea really.From the research done on this piece, this watch was a limited run production and it is extremely hard to find these days.
Coming from our friends up in Canada is a really pristine Corum 163-150-20-0F05FZ30R Men's watch example of a two-register Camaro, with an asking price of $1985.Click here for the details. Last Wednesday Antiquorum held their first ever "Mission MS" auction in support of the National MS Society.Jeff was there live-tweeting the whole thing, and updating you all on the action.One of the most interesting watches that was sold was a #1 of 500 limited edition El Primero Striking 10th "Jean - Louis Etienne".It ended up selling for $10,000.
This watch features a stop-watch feature, original strap and warranty card, showing the date of purchase as July 10, 1969.This would definitely make a great addition to any sports watch collector's inventory, unfortunately, this replica Breitling E79362 Men's watch has already been SOLD.It is not like us to post watches that aren't available to purchase by our readers, we just think that is a tease.This, however, is such a unique and interesting watch made by a legendary manufacturer, that we just had to talk about it.
