Sexima Chronodate mechanical chronograph from the 1970s with a stainless steel case, 39 mm diameter, silver dial with black subdials and orange central hand, tachymeter scale on the rehaut, date window at 3, manual-wind movement with 17 jewels and Incabloc, brown leather replacement strap, and visible wear on the case.
Description from the seller
Mechanical Sicura Swiss Made chronograph from the 1970s, distinguished by the typical sporty and experimental aesthetic of Swiss watchmaking of the period. The generous cushion case measures 39.5 × 43 mm, a size particularly interesting for a vintage chronograph.
The dial features a successful gray/silver and black sector construction, with two chronograph subdials, an orange central seconds hand, and a date window at 3 o'clock. On the rehaut runs a multicolor tachymetric scale with the indication “Base 1000 / Mile.” The inscriptions “17 Rubis – Incabloc” and “Swiss Made” are also clearly shown.
The movement is mechanical hand-wound with 17 jewels. Very similar Sicura chronographs from this period are documented with Bettlach Ebauches movements of the 84xx family; however, without a photograph of the movement, I do not assign a precise caliber to this example.
The case back bears the markings “Stainless Steel Back – Base Metal Bezel – Swiss Made – Waterresistant – Antimagnetic – Incabloc.” The case shows significant signs of wear, with scratches, abrasions, and loss of surface finish, especially along the edges and lugs. The dial, however, retains a strong visual presence. Brown leather strap as a replacement.
