Max Landau Chronograph
Max Landau Chronograph
When it comes to vintage chronographs, it's hard to beat 5 blued hands hovering over a crisp dial looking back at you. This popular mid-century style has come to be a fan favorite in the watch world...and just a few quick glances are enough to let you know why.
This Max Landau Watch Co. timepiece houses a very nice Landeron 51 movement that does the job quite well. While light use and case plating gives the watch a well-loved look that doesn't leave it looking battered, the dial and hands might almost convince you that the watch has just recently seen the light of day from a desk drawer in an attic.
If you're looking for highly desirable styling and concrete chronograph performance all for an affordable price tag, look no further.

[All vintage watches are expected to function as described. However, due to age and generally unknown service history (unless otherwise stated), these watches may not keep time as accurately as new or quartz (battery) watches. This is completely normal and does not indicate that there is a major problem. Like your automobile, all mechanical watches will likely need to be serviced at some point in time. Please keep this in mind, as there is no guarantee regarding when these vintage watches may need standard maintenance. Every watch sold by Buying On Time is done so with the expectation that it is not currently in need of service or repair, unless noted. We guarantee that all watches sold are accurately described and in the stated condition when they leave our hands.]
