Cordura Seagull - His & Her's Baumgartner 158 31/7 & EB 8170

A pair of lovely mid 70s Cordura Seagull watches all restored and serviced. A basic Pin Pallet movement can have you overlooking these watches but they are quite nice in the flesh. Look at the stunning dial on the ladies!
Both came from the USA and have now been serviced. True to form the movement does not keep great time losing about c1 1/2 minutes a day but they have great character and we love 'em.


Mens Purchase reference (27.50) Dated 22/04/14
Service reference Michael Swift (41.50) dated 16/03/15
The movement is a Baumgartner 158 31/7, A pin-pallet with 17 jewels, automatic, with quickset day and date display via turning hands backwards.
