Today's offering showcases this elegant and refined mens Croton in pleasing all-original condition.

Made specifically for the U.S. market, it's luxurious dial is original Croton factory set with thirty-six diamonds. In true dress watch style it only has two hands.

It is fully original down to the dial, hands, and even the winding crown. Powering it is its original handwound Croton movement.

Its untouched dial is mint. Its monococque - or one-piece - case, which achieved high water resistance ratings by not having a separate case back, is in excellent condition.

Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement, which is running very true.

Included with the purchase is a one-year international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
