FS: Vintage Favre Leuba Bivouac

Hello,

I have decided to sell my FL Bivouac as I am hoping to buy another watch and need the funds. The watch is being sold as is. It currently runs very well (on time and with good PR). Based on the pictures, the dial is in quite good shape expect for a little peeling of the red triangle at 12:00. The watch is not small at a little over 40mm and 14mm thick. It is a Bivouac and as such is one of the first-ever tool watches ever produced. The watch was designed to be both a barometer and an altimeter -- handy for mountain climbing and the such. Whether these functions currently work now, I am not sure, but the red hand does move from time to time. The case doesn't seem to have been polished and the lugs are sharp. The "bracelet" will be included. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I am looking for offers of around $2500 with shipping from Japan by EMS included. I will accept PayPal or bank transfer. The buyer will need to cover the PayPal fees.

Thank you for looking.

Eric
