You should note the minor wear on the lugs caused by the fitting of a metal strap for much of the watch's life. This is typical of a medicus watch and is to allow the checking of a patient's pulse.Īs always I urge you to examine the High Definition photos carefully as they form the major part of this hard to find and collectable vintage watch which is around 75 years old. You should note the outer chapter second ring and red sweep second hand. The dial with a very good patina measures 30.85mms and the good quality leather strap fits a wrist to 20.15cms. It is fitted in a rare special Brevet case Google 'Tavannes 166 KA ranfft' for further technical information. The robust Tavannes 166 KA movement has just been overhauled (cost 65€) and is keeping time.
