Paul Breguette Watch

[JimDon]

I hit a thrift store at the beach this weekend and they didn't have anything on display. I asked her if she had any watches she said she just got three in. She went into the office and brought them out for me. Two of them were fashion watches and then this Paul Breguette. She wanted $20 for it but it was missing the crown and the dial is scratched at the 9 o'clock position so I offered her $10. She accepted. Fortunately I had a crown that actually fit and was able to wind it up and it is working great. I polished the Crystal, cleaned the case, and put on a new strap and she's looking pretty good. I didn't take a picture but it has a really nice copper colored ETA movement.

That's a nice little timepiece. What's the age on it?

I believe it to be 1960's. Here is the movement.

That's a good ten dollar buy. Later 60s would be my guess.

I like how the 12 looks. Also nice choice of strap. Congrats on a good buy!
