While Chronomasters are fairly common, it is much harder to find them in this condition.Antique, new and vintage wristwatches have captured the hearts and minds of all manner of watch collectors as well as the watchmakers themselves - it's time you found your own.Ĭertain vintage watches for men and iconic watch designs for women are sought after not only because of their graceful proportions or innovative materials but also because of the illustrious histories of the houses that created them, histories that they stylishly embody.īvlgari’s legendary Serpenti watch was on everyone’s list after the collection’s bold bracelet, which technically debuted after the timepiece, graced the wrist of actress Elizabeth Taylor. With its deep black bezel in mint condition, the stainless steel case well preserved along with a perfect dial, this is what the term ‘collectors grade’ means. This example is in exceptional condition. Some were branded under the Nivada Grenchen name which was powered by the Valjoux 92, but the Chronomasters that went to the US were branded Croton and this variant is a later 2nd generation example. The Chronomaster came in several variants. This is exactly what the current market loves and it is no wonder the the Chronomaster is a perennial favourite. It has a large 38mm stainless steel case with bevelled lugs, an aluminium minute/hour bi-directional bezel and of course, large broadarrow hands. With this example, it is all about the aesthetics- a first execution model that features a classically 60s sport chronograph styling. The Chronomaster came about during a time where adventures and exploration was a hot topic and many watch manufactures took advantage of this, releasing multiple sports watches. Quite the mouthful, but talk about tapping into as many demographics as you can! This is perhaps one of the most epic watch model names to have come out of the 20th century- the Croton Chronomaster Aviator Sea Diver.
