Alfonso Minondo

This appears to be a vintage Anker mechanical wristwatch with a distinctive world-time rotating bezel. A few notable details:
	•	Brand: “ANKER”
	•	Movement marking: “17 RUBIS ANTICHOC”
	•	“17 rubis” means 17 jewels in the movement.
	•	“Antichoc” indicates shock protection.
	•	Style: Likely a late 1960s to 1970s design.
	•	Features:
	•	Rotating city bezel with world cities (New York, Paris, Tokyo, etc.)
	•	Internal 24-hour scale
	•	Date window at 3 o’clock
	•	Bold blue dial with oversized luminous markers
	•	Case: Cushion-shaped chrome/plated case
	•	Strap: Modern NATO-style replacement strap, not likely original.

The watch has a strong “compressor/diver/world-time” aesthetic common in mid-century European watches. Anker was not a top luxury maker like Rolex or Omega, but many of these watches used solid Swiss mechanical movements and have become collectible for their styling.

Condition observations from the photo:
	•	Visible wear on the bezel and case plating
	•	Crystal has scratches
	•	Dial appears fairly well preserved
	•	Hands and lume show aging/patina

Depending on the exact movement inside and whether it runs properly, watches like this often sell in roughly:
	•	$175–450USD in average working condition
	•	More if recently serviced and fully original
	•	Less if non-running or heavily worn
