About this watch
A striking and rarely seen Swiss diver’s chronograph from the 1960s, featuring a beautiful black dial with contrasting silver sunburst subdials.
The dial is particularly attractive, with oversized tritium hour markers and distinctive broad-arrow hands, all showing a wonderful warm golden patina. Together with the black graduated diving bezel, they give this chronograph its unmistakable vintage tool-watch character.
The case measures approximately 38mm in diameter, a generous size for the period, and houses the well-known Landeron calibre 248, a manually wound, 17-jewel, cam-operated chronograph movement with a 30-minute counter.
Vereco was a lesser-known Swiss watch brand based in La Chaux-de-Fonds, with its trademark dating back to 1930.
A beautifully designed vintage diving chronograph, combining bold 1960s styling, attractive proportions and wonderful vintage character.
