Looks nice... been looking for one myself...
at the right price that is...
Ditto on the caseback and movement photo~!
I think these Transocean pieces tend to ask for a bit more than the regular c-matics...

I'd like to get an opinion on this Chrono-Matic TransOcean. I have earlier seen a few with a blue dial, but not one with a white dial. What do you think? Sorry, I don't have more pics... http://www.finertimes.com/graphics/imag ... ptx037.jpg |

What I see looks OK and in good condition - early with the red date wheel. You know what I am going to say about movement and caseback photos. |

Not sure what they actually went for. |

I own one of these and LOVE it. Has a great, heavy feel on the wrist. i prefer the white (its actually silver) dial to the blue because of the contrast it creates with the blue ring around the outside. I also prefer the 2 register chrono- matic to the three register Valjoux (???) because of the historic nature of the movement. Loads of people ask about the crown on the opposite side. When i tell people how old it is they're amazed. This design has really held up well. Good luck with the purchase. |
