FS: Seiko 7T52-6B00 Chrono with analogue 1/100s mech. + Backup

I am offering for sale a rather rare and all original Seiko Quartz Chronograph, ref. 7T52-6B00 (from the SUS series) in a stainless steel case and equipped with its original bracelet from March 1998, plus an additional backup example.

Details:
► Striking stainless steel case in excellent condition that makes a statement on the wrist, with only a few minor surface marks
► Flawless and beautiful royal or cobalt blue dial and rehaut
► Luminous material on hands and dial fully intact
► Scratch-free mineral crystal
► Original stainless steel bracelet, suitable for a wrist circumference of approx. 19 cm
► High-quality quartz calibre 7T52, controlling no fewer than a total of 8 hands including, as a special and truly spectacular feature, an analogue chronograph function with 1/100-second display, whereby one of the two small hands at 12 o’clock completes 10 full rotations per second, which in turn are divided into 10 intermediate steps; the 1/10-second display is arranged coaxially below via another small hand
Fully functional (including date and demo mode, in which the hands run in fast motion), the watch keeps time with quartz precision
► Original stainless steel bracelet, suitable for a wrist circumference of approx. 19 cm
As a bonus, another partially defective example of the same model (branded as "Mild Seven") is added for spares or as a backup, also on the original strap: in general, it’s operational including chronograph functions, but the hour hand gets stuck between 11 and 1 o’clock (without stopping the entire movement) and the demo mode cannot be activated, although all stepper motors have been successfully tested in chronograph mode

Dimensions:
► Diameter: approx. 39mm without crown
► Lug-to-lug: approx. 50mm
► Height: approx. 14mm (due to sharply curved lugs)
► Lug width: 18mm

Price:
For this duo I am asking a total of EUR 210,- plus international insured shipping according to destination.

And now for the pictures:













The watches are 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 pieces 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
