Cyma Clamshell-Case Chronograph - 'Oversized Gilt'

Gilt dial chronographs are some of our personal favorites and this gorgeous Cyma happens to be one of the best examples we've ever seen. Any true gilt dial is a coveted commodity, but this configuration is one of the rarest and most beautiful! It features three tones of gilt: rose gold, white gold and yellow gold. These multi colored scales had to be individually hand applied and through hours of arduous labor came to be in this superb glossy galvanic dial. But even though the dial is exquisite, the condition is just as exemplary. Its super rare 38mm clamshell case is 100% unpolished with razor sharp edges and factory finishing throughout and its dial is glossy. This is thought to be one of only a handful of pieces ever produced for promotional purposes and therefore is one of the most coveted watches the brand ever produced. All together and fitted with the extraordinary Valjoux 22 caliber this is truly one of the most wonderful pieces to ever hit the Watch Shop! Movement: Manual-winding Calibre 22 movement by Valjoux. Bracelet/Strap: Pictured JPM handmade wheat leather strap with steel buckle.
