FS: Clebar Chronograph in Amazing Condition!

A fantastic old stock Clebar chronograph that is mint in a double box set. A rare find in superb condition all the way around! I've never seen one in this condition before. Take a look at the pix, but they really don't show the beauty and true condition of this watch!
Judging by the appearance, this watch was probably made in the period of 1940 to 1950's and never used! It may have been tried on in the store but not sold. It has been taken out of the box twice for photos. Therefore I can't describe it as "new", although it is in that condition.
Dial is silver with steel markers and hands. The seconds track is black and the outer telemeter track is blue. It is signed Clebar Swiss Made.
Crystal is plastic, clean and clear.
Case is a signed, Swiss made, 3 piece stainless steel. 44mm lug to lug and 36mm in diameter. This is a hefty, good size watch.
Movement is super clean and in good working order with 3 registers. Signed Clebar Venus 178 with no scratches or tool marks on it. This movement was a Venus work-horse and the top of the line!
Band is a new old stock, 18mm black leather sports strap with red stitching and piping.
Box is a Clebar red leather chronograph box made in Sweden with outer cardboard box and hang tag. It bears the original price of $89.50!!
When I originally acquired this watch, I saw only pix of the interior and I haven't opened it since. I have not included pix of the inside to avoid the possibility of scratching the case. If this is a deal killer, I will open it for a serious buyer only.
A rare find, 3 register Clebar chronograph in collector’s condition.
Sell at $1250.00 including shipping costs to Conus only. Paypal OK but add 3% to total.
