Description from the seller
JUNGHANS AUTOMATIC DAY-DATE “TV-CASE” – GREEN DIAL – 1970s VINTAGE GERMAN WATCH
Striking 1970s Junghans automatic with the desirable “TV screen” tonneau case and bold green dial – a textbook example of German space-age design. The brushed steel case has strong wrist presence at about 38 mm wide while remaining very wearable day to day. The dial features a bilingual day–date at 3 o’clock (current wheel in Spanish, e.g. “DON” for Sunday), signed “Junghans automatic” with the star logo and “Made in Germany” at 6. Inside is the in-house Junghans cal. 655 automatic movement, visible in the photos and running during photography; service history is unknown. The watch is fitted with a later brown rally-style leather strap with contrast stitching, which suits the sporty 70s character of the piece.
Quick details:
Vintage Junghans Automatic Day-Date from the 1970s, German-made. TV/tonneau-shaped brushed steel case, approx. 38 mm wide. Green dial with applied faceted indices, chunky hands and day–date window at 3 o’clock; current day wheel in Spanish. Powered by the Junghans cal. 655 automatic movement with day–date function. Later brown rally leather strap (aftermarket), matching the retro sports look.
Condition – honest vintage:
This is a true vintage watch with visible signs of age and use. The green dial shows crackling and marks that appear under certain angles, giving it a pronounced vintage patina. The hands show oxidation and aged lume. The acrylic crystal has scratches and wear. The steel case has surface wear and small dings but no major structural damage. Stainless steel snap-on caseback, unengraved. Day and date quickset and changeover are currently functioning. The watch is running, but timekeeping accuracy and water resistance have not been tested; a service is recommended before regular use.
Shipping:
Carefully packed and shipped from within the EU, with tracked / registered shipping.
