Description: UP FOR GRABS IS THE ORIGINAL CERTINA ARGONAUT CHRONO REF# 8404-001-501 HOUSED IN A 38MM RECTANGULAR CASE IS A VALJOUX 23/236 AND IT'S A SUPERB LOOKING MOVEMENT. IT IS ALSO A VERY COLLECTIBLE WATCH AMONG THE ARGONAUTS. THE 38MM CASE HAS A COMBINATION BRUSHED AND POLISHED CASE AND BECAUSE OF THE SHAPE IT FITS LARGER ON THE WRIST AND WEARS EXTREMELY WELL. THE CASE IS SO CLOSE TO NOS I ALMOST INCLUDED IT WITH DESCRIPTION. THE DIAL HAS AWESOME PATINA. THE WATCH WINDS AND TELLS GREAT TIME. HOWEVER WHEN ENGAGING THE CHRONO THE SECOND HAND SWEEP CATCHES ON THE MINUTE HAND. OBVIOUSLY IT NEEDS A SLIGHT ADJUSTMENT AND AS WITH ANY VINTAGE WATCH THE NEW OWNER SHOULD HAVE A SERVICE PERFOMED. (HAD TO MAKE SURE AND INCLUDE THE ABOVE) WITH ALL THAT SAID IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PIECE AND I THINK ANYONE WOULD BE LUCKY TO HAVE ONE THIS NICE IN THE COLLECTION.
