1950s Nicolet Watch Rare Val-88 14K Yellow Gold 37mm Water-resistant Untouched

1950's Nicolet Watch with rare Valjoux 88 14KYG 37mm Water Proof Triple Calendar Moonphase Chronograph. It is equipped with the rare Cal.88, which is a moon phase function added to the famous Cal.72C made by Valjoux, known as Rolex "Kyrie model". The mechanical design and complication of the triple calendar, three registers, and moon phase is considered to be the pinnacle of vintage chronos, and is overwhelmingly popular and well known. The case is a solid 14k gold screw back water resistant case, the dial is a silver two-tone dial with mirror print indexes and gold leaf hands, a wonderful design that retains the taste of the 1940s. It's a great piece of jewelry in a great state of preservation, with a solid 14k gold screw back waterproof case with a sense of weight that doesn't show any case loss from polishing.
