Thank you! It’s a mid 80’s 17 jewel quartz moon phase analog chronograph with date feature. Very sophisticated technology for it’s time. It’s the 7A48 movement that you can research. It does all that a digital watch does but in analog. Watching the 1/10 second sub dial on the right whirl around super fast is pretty cool.

You can find tons of info on Google and some YouTube videos.

I have it on an aftermarket bracelet but have the original. I had the case polished and bezel replated in 5 microns of 14k gold to clean it all up nicely.

Nice, it looks very sharp indeed.

Good job on wearing something different yet so special.
