  • My "new" repeater watch

    This is my "new" watch that I had showing off to all. It was my "old" pocket swiss Le Phare quarter repeater that I had acquired in 2001 and had sent it for encasing into a wrist watch in late 2009. OLD as in 1914-17 year of manufacturer. Came back last week with full service overhaul and it is running very well +/- 15 seconds.....which is VERY GOOD for a 90+ year old watch. The repeater chimes are 'heavenly" (like using a fork and striking against a wine glass) , I thought it had to be worn instead of sitting in the viewing cupboard for so many years. Pure Gold hands, casing, crown and pushers. I will send another of my repeater for encasing this month...as it turn out to be very nice and pleasant..take a look and be the judge.

    Note: Quarter repeaters will chime the hours and quarters when button at 6 is depressed. Pusher at 1 is the chrono function. Minute repeaters will sound out the hours, quarters and seconds. ENJOY!

    Guys, tell me what you think?
    Cheers!
    Enjoy the pictures.
