Hi All,
A few circumstances this week prompted me into getting some watches snapped and uploaded to share with you. My apologies for the refelctions but photographing outside does present probelms.
These are all slide rule watches and are in most cases at least 40 years old.
From L to R. Wittnauer (Longines), Clebar, Cimier Sport (at the base of this is a Tel-Time, not functioning), Juvenia Arithmo (at the base is a better version with roman numerals but also not functioning), Cuervo Y Sobrinos from Cuba, Sheffield and a Jaguar Divisor.
The Cimier is a 1 Jewel Pin Lever movement, whereas the Tel-Time uses an EB movement. I am constanty surprised how popular Cimier Sport watches are. I don’t know if you can see this but the Cuervo, Sheffield and Jaguar are all the same watch, more or less. The cases are exactly the same with the only difference being the movement in the Cuervo and the signing on the face of each. The Cuervo has a very creditable Juvenia movement. All watches on stands are in very good condition and all are functioning.
The Wittnauer is an automatic and on its original braclet, the Cimier is on a CF Di Model (bands worth more than the watch)! The Clebar is very very rare. On this one, I would be interested if anyone out there has one. I only know of one person, in Canada, who has this model Clebar. Must be plenty in the attic or sock drawers out there. Anyone!
Jim
