FS: Technos Sky Diver, vintage quartz, MRP case, 12-sided bezel

I am offering for sale this vintage diver from Swiss brand Technos (Quartz Sky Diver, ref. 738 1000 4) in excellent condition, featuring an unusual case with a matte black dial, plenty of lume and a dodecagonal bezel.

Details:
► Angular all stainless steel case (manufactured by M.R.P. SA, known for the ‘Monnin’ design), (originally) rated to 20 ATM, with crown guard at the 4 o’clock position and an elegant bevel, in very good condition with its original finish and free from any major flaws or nicks
► Brushed dodecagonal (12-sided) bezel in excellent condition, rotating smoothly with 60 clicks
► Matte black dial with perfect lume, also on all three hands
► Mineral crystal with just a few fine scratches, which do not affect readability (the crystal is flat, so replacement should be straightforward if required at any point)
► Screw-down crown at the 4 o’clock position, bearing the manufacturer’s logo
► Screw-down case back, still covered with the original protective film
► Fully functional Swiss ESA 955.111 quartz movement with a flawlessly functioning date display; the seconds hand aligns beautifully with the minute markers
► Mounted onto a brand-new, perfectly fitting Tropic-style strap, plus a khaki-coloured NATO (21mm) as an additional strap option

Dimensions:
► Diameter: approx. 39 mm without crown guard, 42 mm including the crown
► Lug-to-lug: approx. 40mm
► Height: approx. 11.5mm
► Lug width: 21mm giving the watch a quite prominent appearance on the wrist

Price:
I am asking EUR 320,- 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
