Here's one that I've had for a couple of years. It's been one a favorite but I'd like to buy something new so it's time to let it go.
Glycine Automatic Compressor XVII.
The gold (plaque 20) case is 34mm across not including the original cross-hatched non-screwdown crown.
The case is in very nice condition, with one tiny spot of finish loss to an edge of the lower right lug.
This is an EPSA Compressor case, snap not screw-back, those were Super Compressors. These are very cool cases with an interesting design, I've shown an original advert in the last pic below.
The dial and hands are original and have not been refinished.
The mvt is a very clean ETA 2472 17j marked Gus Kroesen on the rotor.
The inside of the case back has a 9-68 date and is also marked Kroesen.
The watch winds, sets, and operates perfectly, keeping good time.
I have not had it serviced.
The strap is a NOS JB Champion Hong Kong perforated padded-ridge brown calfskin.
$325 including shipping in the USA.
Thank you,
Scott
