Vintage Triple Date

I picked this up for pennies when movement was discovered to be shot. Case and movement restoration later and whilst still delicate and definitely not a daily this lovely old Eloga is great to look at. The Brevet connection is interesting too as you’ll see it printed on many of the different branded versions of this watch.

You’re welcome. Now I can use the opportunity to say to change that strap! A nice properly fitting vintage styled leather or a Bonklip style bracelet. Either would set off the watch even more

I like it and think it looks nice on both the nato and leather. Enjoy!
