My watch collection sell-off continues...
Vintage Gruen Pan Am manual-wind pilot's watch from the 1950s. I'm not the original owner, but it's almost as old as I am--and works better. I've had this watch for many years and have worn it on a few occasions; only once with this crocodile strap. This is a particularly nice example of the model, with rose and yellow gold and an unmarred 24-hour dial with red second hand. Pan Ams are getting harder to find, especially in this condition. Watches of this era were smaller than today's watches; the diameter is approximately 32mm, great for smaller wrists. This Pan Am comes with a chocolate brown genuine crocodile strap with matching rose gold buckle that was hand selected for this watch by the strap seller. I'm also including two other like-new smooth leather straps--one black and one mid-brown. A gift-type box for the watch is provided.
PLEASE NOTE: I've tried to show the watch's condition as best I can in the photos (BTW that's dust below the 10 in the first photo, not a scratch on the crystal). There are a few scuffs on the watch case (as shown) but they're minor. I don't have details about the movement. I do have a sheet on the history of the model that I'll share with the purchaser. I've taken good care of this watch and it's in good condition and working very well for a 70-year-old--believe me, I know.
Price is $495 and includes PayPal fee and USPS Priority shipping to CONUS addresses only. No trade offers, please.
