Serviced Vintage 1970s Bucherer Chronograph Panda 9653 Diving Soccer Timer Watch Please read the Description Fully, Inspect all the pictures closely, and ask all question prior to your purchase. Thank you HISTORYBUCHERER: A name know throughout the world. Especially now that they are entering the USA marking by buying Tourneau watch company and being known as Tiffany of Europe. In 1888, a businessman and entrepreneur by the name of Carl-Friedrich Bucherer and his wife Luise opened Lucerne’s first watch and jewellery store and laid the cornerstone for a successful family company.FOUNDATION AND PARTNERSHIPHis sons, Ernst and Carl Eduard Bucherer, joined the family-owned company in the 1920s and, thanks to their wide-ranging experience, took it even greater success. In 1924, Ernst Bucherer entered into a particularly fruitful partnership with Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of Rolex. He decided to include the then little-known watch brand in its range. Today, Rolex is one of the world’s most celebrated watch brands and remains the House of Bucherer’s most important partner.EXPANSION INTO LUXURYDespite the crises of the 1930s and the Second World War, the company continued to grow and opened branches in other Swiss cities and tourist destinations. In 1977 the third generation of this family of entrepreneurs joined the flourishing company. Under the direction of Jörg G. Bucherer, the company expanded to Austria in the 1980s and, ten years later, to Germany. In Switzerland, Bucherer also took over the Kurz Group in 1989 and, in 2001, Swiss Lion AG, whose main target group was tourists. That same year, the independent Carl F. Bucherer company was founded to maintain the Bucherer family’s watchmaking tradition established in 1919. In 2013, Bucherer celebrated its 125th jubilee and opened the world’s largest watch and jewellery store in Paris. The northernmost Bucherer store to date opened in Copenhagen in 2016.BUCHERER TODAYToday Bucherer is one of Europe’s biggest watch and jewellery retail chains. Looking back on a long tradition, Bucherer today offers an international clientele probably the largest choice of Rolex watches anywhere and a wide choice of luxury watches from well-known brands. At the heart of the jewellery range are the jewellery lines designed and produced in the company’s own workshops together with individual pieces made using very rare natural-coloured diamonds, unusual coloured gemstones or much-sought-after pearls.Having a love for complications and complicated watches, makes me love Chronograph watches. At first two register chronograph for simplicity of the dial and providing chronograph functionality for the most. Then the three-register chronograph for the complication of movement and the history of the movements, like of the iconic Omega Ref. 321, Ref. 861 (used in famous moon landing), Zenith El Primero, Venus mostly used in Breitlings, Landeron, and one of the most well-known movement makers Valjoux. With their famous Valjoux 72 put in the vintage Rolex Pre Daytona’s and of course the big dog Patek Philippe reference 2499 using Valjoux 88 my favorite which sold in auction for $3.30 Million in 2018. I also love the Heuer Caliber 11 first micro automatic chronograph movement with date.A Chronograph is simply a watch that combines the function of a stopwatch with a timekeeping display watch, by utilizing an independent sweep second hand. Chronographs often have complications on the face of the watch which can be used to record different time measurements, moon cycles, heart rate and more. Chronographs have usually have a separate buttons to stop, start, and reset (unless it is an monopusher) the stopwatch complication, with the start button typically at the two and four o’clock position.The name Chronograph is derived from the Greek words ‘Chronos’ – the personification of time – and ‘graph’, meaning to write. The first modern Chronograph was created in 1816 by French watchmaker, Louis Moinet. Invented solely for use in union with astrological equipment, Moinet’s Chronograph could measure time accurate to 1/60th of a second – an unrivaled degree of precision at the time of its creation.”poor man’s” Heu-ers represent an interesting facet of Heu-er’s history and also provide a sensible way for individuals to collect these chronographs on a more reasonable budget. The term “Poor Man’s Heu-er” only to refer to chronographs manufactured by Heu-er for other brands one of which is Zodiac & Clebar, which is one of my favorite brands. Please note on ebay there are few brands that are not made by Heu-er and still refer to as Poor man which is not true.This is a beauty, we all know Omega & Lemania made a lot of watches for Bucherer, just like Patek Philippe making watches for Tiffany. This one is not different. The watches were always variant of there own watch, this one is variant of the famous “Omega Seamaster 145.019 would have trouble hiding its 1970s roots, offering the funky vibe you could only expect from that period. This reference is the most coveted “Soccer Timer” because of its uncommon 60-Minutes or Seconds inner rotating bezel”. The Omega version which this was based on has a different case, and smaller size, and dial (we have one for sale). Clearly this is much bigger version. Makes this watch even rarer than the Omega, given the lower products numbers. This is probably one of my favor it, sleeper vintage brand at least in the USA. Bucherer is one of Europe largest jewelers, like Tiffany. They bought Tourneau, and they co-made alots of watches back in the days, with Omega and other brands. This is one of them. It is very rare to find a watch this old in this condition. Defiantly a collector watch. Please look at all the pictures, as they are part of the description. The watch is working and keeping great time. This is a highly collectible watch. Very few left with this rare movement. Sure, to increase in value overtime, and a great addition to your collection.

We do check them out to make sure they are keeping time and running, however we do not service each and every watch and it is possible that servicing may be necessary at your expense. Servicing a vintage watch is highly recommended given that we don’t have service record in most cases. Please see our service level guild for more information.Please bear in mind the age of these watches, in some cases 50-80 plus years old and due to the age of these watches we do not guarantee for water tightness whatsoever, even if it is marked waterproof on any watch we sell.Remember that seeing the item at very high magnification, as in the pictures that I provide, brings to life small defects that the human eye does not perceive.

This is the most effective way to avoid the disappointment of seeing the item go to someone else.I do not guarantee time keeping on any of my vintage watches, even if the time keeping is perfect. Vintage (ie. very old) watches keep good time but do not expect the accuracy of a modern watch. Adjustments of some sort is generally the norm with vintage watches, especially after the stresses of shipping. Please understand this and keep this in mind, especially if you are new to handling vintage watches. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE BIDDING: Vintage watches are very delicate and I package to the highest degree to prevent damage. High altitude flights can be hard on watches due to extreme temperature changes. This can cause the oil viscosity to decrease (gum up) and prevent a watch from ticking (the balance moving freely etc.). It may need to be oiled when it arrives regardless of its recent servicing (if applicable). Although this is only a very slight possibility it can occasionally happen. Please bear in mind that you are buying a used watch and it will require service at some point in time. Have a Great Day & Enjoy Your Purchase!!! Watch as serviced: Unfortunately lot of sellers are calming the watch has been serviced where the watch has not been. So please be careful and ask questions from sellers first. As far as my watches please see below: Watches I sell can have the following service Levels: Level # 1 Experts Watches Serviced: Serviced by our service repair center with over 40 years of experience very old school and very hard to find these day.

Level #4 Sold as is: Given watch inspection and timing or servicing can cost anywhere from $100 to $1000. With basic service costing $200 to $500 given that it is very time consuming. Are less expensive watches or newer watches that does not need it might not go through his process. This testing is not a warranty of repeat-ability or accuracy. Actually, wearing the watch in the pulse will get you different results for sure, because the watch will. be subject to very different positions and temperatures. No matter how good the test results may look, the watch is sold as is, without any sort of warranty unless otherwise stated. Like a car, a mechanical watch will require periodic maintenance by an expert watchmaker. Recommendations for the owner of antiquarian watches: All Antique watches are mechanical. Many repairs will not be cheap, as most likely they will require replacement of non-standard parts (unlike most late model watches).Antique watches should not be beaten or dropped – because repairs may be expensive.Antique watches are generally NOT waterproof. This is because waterproofing was not in general production until the middle of the 20th century for most watches. Therefore you should protect your antique watch from exposure to moisture.If your watch becomes wet it should be dried off quickly. Carefully open all covers and use a hair drier to blow dry the movement, dial, covers, crown. This will reduce the amount of rust.If your watch becomes wet with any kind of salt water you should immediately immerse or spray your watch with fresh (no-salt) water to remove all the salt from the works before drying the watch completely. Any salt left in the watch will combine with moisture in the air to rust metal components of the movement, case etc.Winding any mechanical watch tight may break the mainspring. If you can avoid it do not wind the watch hard.When adjusting the hands of your watch, move them in a clockwise direction only. Counter-clockwise adjustments may damage the movement.If you must adjust counter-clockwise make it for small adjustments only (i.e. for minutes, NOT hours).Be careful and gentle when adjusting the movement speed (faster or slower). Don’t make sharp movements, and don’t touch other components in the movement especially the pendulum mechanism.Every 2-3 years it is necessary to service and oil vintage watches.IF the watch is dirty – allow the watch to run down, don’t wind it again until you have it serviced by a qualified watch repair expert. Dust will absorb and remove important lubricants and cause the movement pieces to wear down.To clean the case, dial and crystal you should use a cloth that does NOT leave fibers as these may get caught up in the movement. Check with your Watch repair expert to get an appropriate cloth.Keep your antiques watch away from magnets. Strong magnetic fields may affect the accuracy of your watch since some vintage watches were made with iron based components in the movement.Most Cases and Covers are fine components and will not handle abuse well. The watch should not be shaken, beaten, or stressed.Antique watches generally experience an error of up to 5-7 minutes a day. Any accuracy of +- 5 minutes is very good.
