[Album with more individual pictures](https://imgur.com/a/SBumzYG) Hello r/WatchExchange, and welcome to what I (really, really) hope will be the final one of these group sales for some time. As you can see, I still have too many watches. I'm also (hopefully) going to grad school sometime in the near future, and with that costing only slightly less than your soul and firstborn child, I could use the extra cash. I want all of these **gone**. I have lots of good feedback on here both as a buyer and a seller. Before I get into the listings, a few general notes. **For all prospective buyers:** If you're interested in anything here, feel free to send me a chat or PM. I will happily provide more photos and information if desired, including movement pics. **I will not respond to anything unless you leave a comment on this post first.** Sorry, have to be cautious. **Pricing:** Like I said, I really want all of these to go, so I've attempted to get just about down to my pain threshold on all of them. However, if you're interested in something and think a lower price would allow you to make the purchase, **feel free to reach out and negotiate**. I'm not guaranteeing I'll flex as far as you want me to, but I'll certainly listen. **I am always extremely willing to give discounts to those purchasing multiple watches, with bigger discounts the more you buy.** **Shipping:** All listed prices include standard USPS shipping in the CONUS. I have no issues shipping internationally or through a service other than USPS, but the difference in cost will be at buyer's expense. **Condition:** Unless otherwise noted, I do not have the service history for a watch, but unless I say otherwise all watches are keeping time within a few minutes a day at last check. However, please note that due to lack of use and age, many of these watches could probably use a simple lubrication and cleaning, **and it is highly recommended that all vintage mechanical pieces be serviced for best long-term functionality.** I'll try to note if a watch is either in especially good or especially bad cosmetic condition, but please look at photos and ask if you'd like to see more. In general, figure these watches have been decently-well-cared-for, but also have been worn--most will present with small nicks here and there. **Payment:** I will take payment through Zelle or PayPal F&F only--have had too many bad experiences with everything else. That it? I think that's it. Let's get into the listing. In order roughly from left to right of rows in group picture. **Vintage black Bulova tank with engraved case - $85** Incredibly Art Deco, as is appropriate given its origin in the 1940s. An abolutely lovely gilt black dial with sharp syringe hands and all markers in near-mint condition. Nice little scrollwork around the bezel is in excellent shape. Crystal could use a little Polywatch, and seems to have been overwound, so will need a service, but overall in wonderful condition for its age. Comes on pictured strap. **Vintage 17-jewel Avia - $85** White dial has some nice reflectiveness to it and a quite neat, almost totally uniform speckling patina which adds something nice. Pleasantly long baton hands and markers match perfectly with quite unusual Arabic numerals at the cardinal points, and large recessed subseconds dial with raised circular pattern finishes the dial off perfectly. Lack of a real bezel and under-recessed lugs along with slightly domed shape means this thing is easy to get lost staring at. Will need a service, as the winding is extremely crunchy at the moment, but probably jyst needs to be oiled. **DOES NOT** come on pictured mesh band, but I can help you source the exact same one if you'd like. Overall a super sharp, fairly unique looking piece with a lot of character in a small package. **Omega De Ville ellipse - $250** An absolutely beautiful piece of 70s nostalgia, and a great, inexpensive way to get into Omega! A true dress watch, this De Ville in the less common ellipse case shape has no seconds hand. Raised hour markers on the champagne dial are a subtle and perfect complement to the thin hands, and the onyx cabochon in the crown adds a nice bit of tasteful flair. Has recently been serviced, and is running absolutely perfectly. Comes on pictured strap. **1923 Illinois Autocrat 14k filled gold pocket watch - $125** This next Illinois pocket watch, featuring their upscale "Autocrat" movement, is in superb condition, and is keeping virtually perfect time. Double-recessed dial with nice circle etching around the hands, which are cathedral-style and still showing their bluing beautifully. Nice etching around the edge of the case, and a hinged caseback so you can easily look at the wonderfully decorated interior. **\~1920s Imperial pocket watch - $55** Most immediately apparent when looking at this pocket watch is the lovely engraved case, which features a sailing scene on the central backside shield. Has a hinged front and double-hinged back, allowing it to sit open and be used as a desk clock without fear of damaging the movement. Slight crack just to the left of the six o'clock marker, and a little schmutz on the sub-seconds dial from years of operation. Keeping excellent time at last check. **1924 Illinois rolled white gold pocket watch with ornate dial - $70** A beauty from a stalwart of American watchmaking, this Illinois pocket watch is keeping good time, and features an engraved case and fairly ornate decorative centerplate on the dial. Blued cathedral hands are lovely, as is the movement. Obviously could use a little visual TLC, if you want to get it touched up I would highly recommend the user AreWGadmin. **1990s Swatch "Knight of the Night" - $60** No collection, in my opinion, would be truly complete without a Swatch at least passing through it at some point, and this is a great place to look. This Swatch was appropriately named, as it seems like if Batman wore a Swatch, this would be the one. Lume still works excellently, as does quickset date and day function. In virtually NOS condition, and comes on original strap. **Lucerne jump hour watch - $90** Jump hour watches are just cool, in the end, and Lucerne's were pretty well known back in the day and are still quite collectible. This one doesn't feature the usual "DIGITAL" on the front underneath the manufacturer's logo, instead just saying "SWISS," which likely indicates this was one of the earlier iterations. Keeping terrific time, does have a few dings on the case, but is ultimately a solid chunk of metal, so should hold up just fine. Hours don't always line up quite perfectly--they're just a little too high--so if that bothers you, something to be aware of. Comes on picture nylon strap with stainless steel buckle and loops, which is worth a fair bit on its own. **Armitron quartz day-date - $15, or $5 with any other purchase** This has some nice heft to it, with a solid and pretty distinctive look, as well as having day and date functionality. Will need a new battery, comes with pictured adjustable bracelet. **Curved vintage Waltham tank - $55** Very classic look, with a curved case that really hugs the wrist beautifully, and extremely distinctive deco-style font for the hour markers. Will need to be serviced, as currently won't wind. **DOES NOT** come on pictured 16mm strap. **Luch tuxedo dial - $55** Now known primarily for their one-hander watch, Luch is a Belarusan watchmaker (the only Belarusan watchmaker, in fact) who used to make quite tasteful dress watches. This tuxedo dial, with its Roman numeral hour markers and separate minute ring, is a great example. Needs to be serviced, as it currently won't wind. **Vintage Wittnauer Geneve - $55** An absolutely lovely vintage dress piece that could pretty easily be dressed down, in my opinion. Features a light champagne dial that catches the light simply wonderfully, and is paired with pleasantly quirky numerals at the cardinal points and the Wittnauer logo itseld, which I quite like the simplicity of. Recessed subseconds dial with raised circular patterning is a classic touch of this era, and the sword hands are quite nice. Does have a bit of a scratch on the upper right side of the crystal which could be polished out, but otherwise in wonderful condition. Winds and sets smoothly, but will need a service, as it is currently running far too fast. Comes on pictured Speidel-style stretch bracelet with some subtle patterning, which is sized to fit probably around a 6.75 inch or larger wrist.
