Description: KELEK CHRONOGRAPH Landeron 248 17 Jewel movement Vintage c1960 38MM Hand Winding Men's Watch This is a Kelek chronograph watch manufactured circa 1960. It has a Landeron 248 movement. The case is base metal with a chrome finish in excellent, unblemished condition (see pictures). The screwback case bottom is brushed stainless steel with marks across it (see pictures). As it was made about 65 years ago, the waterproofing cannot and should not be relied upon. It has a clean acrylic crystal. The dial of the watch is black. There are blemishes, possibly attempts at refinishing from an earlier owner, between the 10 and 11 o’clock marks, 7 and 8 o’clock marks, and below 6 o’clock on the Tachymetre. As you can see from the pictures, they are not noticeable in most light. There are white baton indices for the hours and smaller white indices for minutes and stopwatch seconds. As with other chronographs, the second hand is in the register on the left side of the dial. The register on the right measures minutes for the stop watch. It has its original crowns. The chronograph is fully functional (see video). At the top of the dial, it reads “KELEK”, stamped in white. At the bottom, it reads “17 JEWELS” and “AUTOMATIC”, also in white. It comes with a new, stainless steel, jubilee watch band (see pictures). I am not a watchmaker, but I have tested the watch and observed it running for over 12 hours. It kept good time over that period, but I cannot guarantee perfect time on a vintage watch. The dimensions are: 40mm long, lug to lug; the lug widths are 18mm 38mm wide, not including the crowns (right side, 3 o'clock mark); 41mm, including the crown 12mm thick, from the top of the crystal to the bottom of the case Please note: Please be sure that you want this watch before you bid.
