One glance and it takes our breath away, and gives us a new perspective on the passing of time and on the things that last. The same can be said about this vintage, made in Germany, automatic watch. The classic design is immune to rapid changes in fashion, and the high-quality mechanical movement ticks away with a technical precision that marks out a genuine vintage and a collector’s item. Every glance at this watch gives you a very special perspective on time. An all and stainless steel case that has a classical tonneau/tank case design, brushed top with mirror polished sides and an acrylic crystal (can always be polished for scratched or changed) will safeguard your precious timepiece for many years to come.

The length of the hands was coordinated precisely to the hour markers and the indices that are located at intervals of five minutes. The <> that moves this timepiece, a fine Swiss made, self winding movement, incorporates no fewer than 25 Jewels and has a power reserve of 46 hours.The screw-in stainless steel back, keeps the watch water resistant (do not get it wet, it's a vintage timepiece, treat it accordingly). The watch secures on your wrist with a new genuine blue leather band that has a white top stitching to match the dial and closes with a stainless steel buckle ATTENTION !!! The crown goes further in, it as pulled for the pictures !!!The AS 2063 was one of the late AS selfwinding mens' movements. It uses the knowledge of fourty years development and research of selfwinding movements and thus offeres many useful features, such as a single-direction (counterclockwise) winding mechanism, an Incabloc shock protection, a date quickset mechanism (middle position of the stem) and chatons for the selfwinding mechanism. AS surely developed this movement with longevity and not beauty in mind. High quality Swiss made automatic movement.

Water Resistance ....a never-ending source of misunderstandings often caused by the irresponsible advertising of certain competitors, who are usually the ones to refuse any responsibility when damage by water occurs. Here are the facts in plain English: 1. Every known brand submits the watch to a 2-phase test in a chamber, where it has to withstand to pressure for the minimum length of time required by industrial standards. It may seem a paradox, but low pressure-resistance, say at 0.5 bar equivalent to 50 cm depth is more critical to achieve, because increasing pressure tends to compress the seals, thereby increasing the resistance; the second phase test conducted at 3 bar (30 m.) is confirmatory. Because of a solid case-construction, the known brands watches will resist to 10 bar (100 m. or 300 ft) and we could confidently call it a «diver’s watch» 2. HOWEVER: The water resistance of a wristwatch is constantly challenged by mechanical wear caused by bumps, shocks etc., rapid changes in temperature, caustic acids, chemicals, etc. and can therefore not be guaranteed as a permanent condition. I renounces to using inflationary «theoretical» claims; the decision to wear your valuable timepiece for swimming, diving or in the Sauna is yours. On a side-note: only very few specially trained and equipped divers reach depths of 100 m and wear professional computers to indicate the life-saving compression- and decompression data; at such depths, normal watches will just not do. Thanks for looking and buying a great and unique item. Have a great day !!!
