Morning chaps, I often break away from the car side of the forum to look at this section. Some interesting posts and knowlegable blokes.....good stuff and some great reads .
Anyhow, I had an idea after all these years that a post myself may solve something for me. I bought this watch about 12 years ago (well OH spotted it) from a small independant jeweller/s/hand jewellry shop that was closing that day, we were just having a stroll on a day off.

We had a mooch around the shop made an offer on this and bought it. I try every couple of years having a google for it but always draw a blank............contacting Baume a few years back shed no light either...................so I thought I'd give it a whirl here seeing as I've just stumbled across it in the "sock draw" this morningsmile

I'd just like to know it's aprox age and if it was a rare-ish watch or run of the mill?
I'd also love to know what it's retail value was when it was new.
In fact any light shed would be fantastic after all of these years, a link to a page or a brochure featuring this watch would be incredible. As I say I gave up asking around as a waste of time.

Many thanks lads,
Kenny

Many thanks for that. After all those years looking I'd found no Baume and Mercier even similar, good spot!!.

The strap and the case on the one you link to are the same I'd say..........and it says it is a 1990 watch so that's a bit of info. I never had.

Many thanks,
Kenny
