Unveiling a Timepiece Steeped in Legacy: The Bulova 7605 Left-Handed Chronograph Prepare to be captivated by a watch that defies convention and embraces history – the Bulova 7605. This vintage masterpiece carries with it a unique secret: it is none other than a Heuer 1163 Autavia, proudly adorned with a distinctive Bulova dial. A true collector's gem, this left-handed chronograph challenges the norm with its crown positioned gracefully on the left side of the case. Once owned by a client who underestimated its potential, this watch's destiny took a dramatic turn. Cast aside and deemed beyond repair, it was destined for oblivion – until fate intervened. A challenge was issued, a challenge accepted, and a journey to resurrect time itself began. The outcome? A testament to determination and horological expertise. After a substantial investment of around $1,000 and unrelenting effort, the heart of this timepiece was coaxed back to life. The year 2018 witnessed a meticulous servicing that restored its functionality, while a new crystal bestowed crystal-clear clarity upon its countenance. The bracelet and case, venerable witnesses to years past, were tenderly cleaned, preserving the echoes of its storied journey. That being said, there is no warranty on the watch. And the watch is “as-is”, it is used. It is vintage. It’s pictured a few times with a navitimer style bracelet-the edgers were too sharp and I kept snagging on stuff so that is not included. Its original bracelet, a testament to both form and function, embraces wrists of up to 7.5 inches. What sets it apart? The exceptional condition it boasts, outshining even its counterparts on the market. This watch isn't merely a timekeeping instrument; it's an artifact that bridges eras, styles, and legacies. As its current steward, I find myself at a crossroads, parting with this treasure in the hope that another soul will cherish it as deeply as I have. The time has come to find a new chapter for this chronograph, a chapter written by someone who recognizes its worth and significance. But this offering is not just a sale; it's an invitation to share in a passion, a history, and a unique journey. Moreover, it's an opportunity for you to become part of its ongoing narrative. And as I set my sights on a coveted timepiece, I'm open to trades, understanding the value of a horological exchange that enriches both collections. Envision the Bulova 7605 gracing your wrist, a testament to your appreciation for craftsmanship and your affinity for the extraordinary. The legacy lives on, and you can be a part of it. Place your bid, embrace the opportunity, and seize a piece of history that keeps on ticking. Looking for $4500. Open to trades and offers!
