Vintage 1970's Marcel & Cie 5 ATM Diver Watch w/EB 8810 Mvmt FOR PARTS/REPAIR

Description: ***********FOR PARTS/REPAIR - The EB 8810 manual wind movement runs for a few seconds at a time only after the watch has been vigorously shaken. And although the date and time can be set without issue the crown does not wind. Because I do not have a case back press the case back will be sent to the buyer secured to the watch by a rubber band. A watchmaker will have to secure the case back after the movement has been serviced. A complete overhaul is required.***********This seldom seen vintage 1970's Marcel & Cie diver has a pristine "T SWISS MADE T" signed dial and the original lume, which remains fully intact and emits a quick burst glow after being exposed to bright light, has aged gracefully. The black plastic bezel, which shows wear and rotates bidirectionally with an appropriate amount of tension, presents nicely. The chrome-plated case shows honest wear with insignificant signs of brassing. The outside of the case back is stamped "SWISS MADE 10112 BASE METAL BEZEL STAINLESS STEEL BACK WATERRESISTANT 5 ATU SINGLE TESTED." The inside of the case back is stamped "AGON CHROMATIC WATCH CORP." followed by "12745." The crystal needs be replaced. The 1 jewel unadjusted Swiss "AGON CHROMATIC WATCH CORP." stamped EB 8810 manual wind movement with quickset date function is clean but runs for only a few seconds at a time after the watch has been vigorously shaken. The date wheel rolls over at 12 am. The quickset date function works flawlessly by manually rolling over a new date and then moving the hour hand repeatedly between the 20.5 and 24 hour marks. Although the date and time can be set without issue the crown does not wind. Because I do not have a case back press the case back will be sent to the buyer secured to the watch by a rubber band. A watchmaker will have to secure the case back after the movement has been serviced. Given the issues mentioned and considering the movement's unknown service history (there are no visible watchmaker service markings on either the inside of the case back or on the movement) a complete overhaul is required. This watch measures approximately 39 mm excluding the crown, approximately 41.5 mm including the crown and approximately 19 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel is approximately 10 mm. Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 13 mm. This watch comes on a "100% STAINLESS STEEL" and "HONG KONG" stamped bracelet which shows moderate stretch. I'd guestimate that it will comfortably accommodate up to an approximate 6.75 inch wrist. Given that the movement does not want to run and considering that the crown won't wind a complete overhaul is required. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time. For this watch that time is now. Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility.Please thoroughly read this entire listing and kindly ask any and all questions you may have prior to buying as this sale is final and no refunds of any kind will be given. And please study the 12 high magnification pictures carefully as they are part of the description and serve as an accurate representation of the condition of this watch.Expedited and insured shipping along with signature confirmation will be provided. Thanks for looking! ***********FOR PARTS/REPAIR - The EB 8810 manual wind movement runs for a few seconds at a time only after the watch has been vigorously shaken.
