One of the thinnest watches we have ever had, this Credor is also in new old stock (NOS) condition, with the original box. Model reference 2F70-5290.
HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
From the serial number on the case back we can accurately date this watch to being made in December 1984.
CONDITION
The new Credor watch models are extremely high end pieces of horological art, sitting right at the top of the Seiko model line up alongside Grand Seiko. In the 1980’s they were high quality, thin, analogue watches and this is exactly what we have here. And thin is a bit of an understatement. Making thin watches has always been difficult, and is a real showcase of the watchmakers skill. Any watch that is 5mm or thinner is considered ultra thin, and this is just 3.55mm thin. That is remarkable, even for a quartz watch. The case is stainless steel with 22k plated corners, and the blue case back sticker is still in place. There are no marks anywhere on the watch. We will install a brand new battery before sending the watch out to the new owner. The leather strap is signed for Credor, and is unworn save for our photography. The watch is signed on the dial, case, movement and strap.
This watch will be supplied with the original presentation box, and our Certificate of Authenticity.

From 1st September 2021 we will be planting a tree for every watch we sell, working with the International Tree Foundation (Est 1922) to make this business positive on carbon. By buying anything pre owned you are effectively reusing what already exists, but this takes it further and makes us feel good.
