A stunning and iconic Benrus Sky Chief. I hope to get this one fixed but as usual I am listing it early should any one wish to take the job on themselves for a lower price.
It is sold for spares repairs. Whilst I'm no watchmaker, the issues I'm able to identify include but may not be limited to:
- The chrono seconds hand does not move. The left subsidiary dial seconds hand does.
- The balance is okay, not super free swinging but will move for a few seconds.
- It appears to be missing some parts, in particular a part to allow the top pusher to spring back out.
- Crystal is quite dirty
- When wound, there is a slipping sound (maybe the main spring?) and it winds indefinitely.
Diameter (inc. crown): 35mm
Between Lugs: 16mm

IMPORTANT: I am not a watchmaker. All of my watches should be considered spares/repairs. I cannot and do not guarantee a watch will be repairable or that further parts won't be necessary - that is just part and parcel of buying used watches. I will happily answer questions to the best of my limited knowledge on watches.
*My subjective opinion based on the age of the piece. Please use photos and judge for yourself.
