Its not as clean or pristine as your Chrono-matic, so be prepared for a shock when it arrives. Being of the age it is, it certainly will need to be appreciated for its vintage appearance. Would make a good dress watch IMO, but there again an 809 is more versatile than that. Always difficult to express a reasonable price but I would go higher and add half as much again for one in good condition. But that's me, other might not see it that way.

I can't get a translator from Swedish to English, so not sure what the working condition is like. No shot of the movement either.

Best of luck

Serial number is 1967 not 1966, condition looks pretty good to me - a straight on dial shot would be nice, but seems to be a genuine patina. The outer sliderule looks a bit odd but I think that's just the angle of the photo through the plexi, it has the correct red boxing. Crown is wrong, but seller acknowledges that.

Movement shot would be nice, and would certainly keep the price down for me, but no reason to be suspicious. Price is probably about where it should be for the condition and for being gold filled.
