Just found this in a old bench and got it working now, A Heuer chronograph approx Size 16 USA have not cleaned it yet but running very as is, the movement is a Valjoux 76 watch is triple signed but cannot seem to find any information on it and values have found a few used as race timers in different cases. Any one have more information? would make a great carry watch having a incabloc. ![]() | ||

Thanks all some good information there and have printed out the add will keep with watch for fun. Doesn’t seem to be a common watch to find, would like to get the dial re done it would have to be a keeper then, will put it on my web site for sale something different to show, next to the Longines Chrono I also have. | |||
