商品説明
This is a Limes titanium automatic winding model.
Limes is a long-established watch case manufacturer founded in Germany in 1924, growing into a high-quality watch case manufacturer.
In 1990, they started manufacturing wristwatches as a private brand.
They equip their self-made classic cases with high-precision Swiss-made mechanical movements.
As they were originally a case manufacturer, their attractive point is their reasonable pricing despite the high quality.
This is a slim automatic winding model featuring a titanium case and sapphire crystal glass.
Sapphire glass has the advantage of being scratch-resistant.
The case back is a see-through type.
The dial has Arabic numerals and thick hour and minute hands, making it highly legible.
The movement is an ETA automatic winding "Cal.2824-2".
It features a hacking function (second hand stop), quick-set date, and manual winding, making it highly practical.
New retail price: 128,100 yen
How to operate Cal.2824-2
Manual winding: Rotate the crown upwards in the normal position.
Time setting: Pull the crown out two clicks and rotate downwards (the second hand stops).
Quick-set date: Pull the crown out one click and rotate upwards.
The quick-set function is convenient, but operating it when the watch hands are between "9 PM and 2 AM" may cause damage to the gears.
It is recommended to set the time to around 6 o'clock before performing the quick-set.
(This precaution applies to all watches with a calendar function.)
Condition
The daily rate is +10 seconds when flat and +14 seconds when crown down.
(Please note that the error may vary depending on the usage environment, so consider these as reference values.)
The leather strap has been replaced with a new German-made Di-Modell strap, so you can use it with comfort.
There are light scuffs on the glass, but otherwise, there are no noticeable scratches, and it is in clean condition.
As it is a USED item, there is no waterproofing guarantee.
The case back is secured with five screws.
To prevent the screws on the case back from rusting, it is recommended not to leave it in a wet state.
