FOR PARTS/REPAIR – The manual wind movement does not run. While the date and time can be set the crown can’t be wound, likely suggesting that the mainspring needs to be replaced. At a minimum a complete overhaul is required. This vintage 1970’s Paul Raynard has a glossy black “T SWISS MADE T” signed dial that is in lovely but not perfect condition as it shows light wear. The lume, which remains fully intact and emits a quick burst glow after being exposed to bright light, has aged to a perfectly matching toasted orange hue. The black plastic bezel, which does not rotate, shows significant wear and paint loss. The chrome-plated case shows honest wear, brassing and oxidation. The outer edge of the case back is stamped WATERPROOF TESTED TO 600 FEET SHOCKPROOF ANTIMAGNETIC. STAINLESS STEEL BACK SWISS MADE. The crystal needs to be replaced. While I normally show pictures of the movements of watches I put up for sale the case back on this watch is torqued too tight for me to remove. Although the date and time can be set without issue the manual wind movement with semi-quickset date function does not run as the non-screwdown crown cannot be wound, likely suggesting that the mainspring needs to be replaced. The semi-quickset date function works flawlessly by manually rolling over a new date and then moving the hour hand repeatedly between the 20 and 24 hour marks until the desired date has been reached. This watch measures approximately 36 mm excluding the crown, approximately 38 mm including the crown and approximately 19.75 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 8.5 mm. Including the crystal thickness measures approximately 10.5 mm. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time. For this watch that time is now. Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility. And please study the 21 high magnification pictures carefully as they are part of the description and serve as an accurate representation of the condition of this watch.
