Hello,

I am selling a vintage dive watch from the German brand Kienzle:

Very pretty iridescent brown dial with golden / copper reflections (which do not stand out in the photos), typical of the time, for a vintage look as desired.

The Kienzle brand (Kienzle Uhren GmbH) was founded in 1822, in Schwenningen, by master watchmaker Johannes Schlenker:

It would seem that the Kienzle brand had, as was the case for the German brand Prätina, a partnership with Yema for the export of some of its models which are only "rebadged" Yema.

This is identical to the Yema "Sous-Marine" reference 63.10.14 (case + bezel + dial + hands + movement) from the 70s (here without its original bezel):

Visible on page 7 of the 1976 Yema catalog:

Like the Yema, it is equipped with a French movement France Ebauches FE 140:

CHARACTERISTICS:

Brand: Kienzle
Model: Sous-Marine
Years: 1970's
Mechanical movement with manual winding
Caliber: France Ebauches FE 140-1C (17 jewels, 21,600 Bph)
Case: Chrome steel
Case finish: Polished
Diameter of the bezel: 36 mm
Case width (excluding crown protection): 38.5 mm
Lug to lug: 40 mm
Lug: 19 mm
Dial: Iridescent brown with gradient
Date: Framed box office at 3:00 a.m.
Bezel: Metal, rotating and bidirectional
Glass: Plexiglas
Back: Screwed, stainless steel

CONDITION:

The watch is in very good condition / very well preserved for an almost 50-year-old grandmother (see photos).
Note mainly the inevitable scratches on the plexi as well as the lack of chrome on the edge of the crown, but nothing shocking for its age.

WORKING ORDER:
- The movement, which was overhauled in 2020, works perfectly: Keeping time (drift of 10 s. / 24 hours), power reserve (more than 46 hours) and hassle-free date change.

OTHER:

No traces of oxidation.
Note that the mobile loop of the bracelet is missing.

PICTURES:

European Union: 16 € with tracking number but without insurance / 18 € with tracking number and insurance

Yema is a watchmaking company in Besançon, France. They claim that their watches "stand out from the rest by virtue of their specific design and technological characteristics".

Founded in 1948 in Besançon (Doubs) by Henry Louis Belmont, the company distinguished itself in the very beginning by creating the first automatic chronometers manufactured entirely in France, and became famous for the technical qualities and sports characteristics of its watches.

Having been owned by Seiko Watch Corporation of Japan since 1988, the company recently returned to French hands via a buyout by Louis Eric Beckensteiner. As a result, a transition is occurring as of September, 2005. The new Chairman has set a target for watch sales of 50,000 in 2005 and 100,000 pieces with a turnover of 10 million euros in 2008.
