FS: Technos Supercron vintage, full set, near mint

I am offering for sale this beautifully preserved (almost perfect aka near mint) modern-sized vintage watch from Swiss brand Technos, featuring a fantastic faceted crystal, its original bracelet, box and hangtag – the perfect find for vintage collectors of unusual designs and complete sets in pristine condition.

Details:
► Cushion-shaped stainless steel case with a perfect radial finish and a polished bevel, polished sides and a polished bezel, in its original condition showing virtually no signs of wear (sharp edges, minimal superficial signs from storage)
► Matte black dial, with distinctive applied block-shaped hour markers and logos, and fully intact lume material on all hour markers
► Original handset, also with generously applied and fully intact (and still vividly glowing) green lume on all three hands
► Non-screwed crown bearing the manufacturer’s logo
► Caseback with clearly legible embossing and the central Technos emblem (often missing on other examples)
► Fascinating faceted mineral crystal with a central flat surface and a total of eight additional bevelled surfaces, which gives the watch a particularly high-quality appearance, especially when hit by the light at the right angle
► Robust Swiss automatic movement (ETA 2782) with date display; starts and runs smoothly keeping time with a deviation of approx. 5s/d (measured laid down, service history unknown); the date mechanism and quick date adjustment also work flawlessly
► Continuously adjustable, tapered original stainless steel Milanaise-style bracelet with a brushed clasp featuring the brand logo; fits even very large wrists and is the ideal choice for hot summer temperatures
► Period-correct Technos box with retaining clip and original watch hangtag

Dimensions:
► Diameter: approx. 37mm without crown
► Lug-to-lug: approx. 43mm
► Height: approx. 12.5mm
► Lug width: 19mm

Price:
I am asking EUR 420,- plus international insured shipping according to destination.

And now for the pictures:











The watch is located in Austria (EU) and so am I. I do have plenty of international references from various watch enthusiasts (also known here), so please feel free to ask for them.

Just for the records: I am a private collector and, therefore, the watch comes without any personal guarantee given by me. Nevertheless, I am offering to give a full refund less fully insured shipping expenses in case the piece sold would not be as described by me (within an inspection period of three days and to buyers from within the EU only due to the complex customs procedure in case of an overseas deal).

Thanks for reading and thanks to the Chronotrader platform and its host!

Kind regards,
F.Antl
