FS: Rare STOWA Vintage Chrono - VJ 7733 - 1960/70s

I am selling my STOWA (WAlter STOrz, Rheinfelden, Germany) Regatta Chrono from the 1960s. It got a complete overhault in January 2014 by a german watchmaker and has warranty until July 2014.
Chronos by STOWA were often produced, but are nowadays hard to find - especially in such good condition.

Technical specifications:

- rare Vintage Chrono with red 5-minute-markers at the 30-minute-dial (regatta function?)
- movement: legendary VJ 7733 (handwounded)
- case: stainless steel
- antimagnetic, 17 jewels
- incabloc shockabsorbing system
- diameter: ~ 40 mm
- crystal: plexi-crystal
- production year: late 1960s/beginning 1970s (7733 was lanced in 1969 and produced until 1978)
- Stowa-History:

https://www.stowa.de/lshop,inline,139383487014549,en,1393834877-14589,Infos,Geschichte,,,.htm

- actual overhault by german watchmaker (invoice dated 27.01.2014 attached)
- lightly weared leather strap with pin buckle (not original)

I ask 475 € net for me for this very nice chrono. I accept paypal and bank wire transfer and I ship to to U.S., U.K. and rest of western Europe.

Please feel free to ask me for more pics via email (without NOSPAM).

Cheers, Marcus
