this is an extremely rare Farex Chronograph from the late 1940s.The brand Farex is only known to very few collectors, as it only existed for more or less a decade between 1940s and 50s. It was founded in 1941 by Georges Farine in La Chaux-de-Fonds, as one of the smaller watchbrands of that time, and is mainly known for the oustandingly beautiful gilt dials with copper indicies and hands, coming without any radium lume. Only very few may have been produced with stepcases and this is, up to date, the only example you will find anywhere all over the worldwide web.

the valjoux 23 powered chronograph, with 35mm steel compressorcase, convinces with many original details, like the big oversized crown and pushers, a domed plexi and of course the overwhelmingly gorgeous copper galvanised giltdialand and the unpolished stepcase. The hole condition of this collectors piece is seriously remarkable as almost mint, if you consider it´s age of almost 80 years. Without any doubt this is one of the most beautiful chronographs in all aspects, we could ever offer for sale on rarebirds. It comes on a period-correct bonklip steelbracelet // 6500€ Please contact us over this link
