    Description

    ***********FOR REPAIR - while the screwdown crown screws down as it should and both the quickset day and date functions work flawlessly, the movement does not run despite recently trying a new battery.  At a minimum the movement will require a repair/service and at worst it will need to be replaced.***********
    This uber rare Felicia Ocean Wave has a lovely
    but not perfect "SWISS" signed dial.
    The lume, which emits a quick-burst glow after being exposed to bright light, remains fully intact.  The black and red acrylic bezel, which rotates bidirectionally with an appropriate amount of tension,
    shows wear.
    The massive, beautifully cut
    all stainless steel case is in decent condition showing wear and bruising
    with no visibly noticeable signs of oxidation.  The outer edge of the case back is stamped "3114" followed by "200M."
    The crystal shows scratching.
    The 6 jewels unadjusted movement is exceptionally clean
    but it does not run despite recently trying a new battery.
    A repair/service will be required with the movement possibly needing to be replaced.
    The quickset day and date functions work flawlessly by unscrewing the screwdown crown, pulling it out to the first position and then turning clockwise to set the date and counterclockwise to set the day.
    This watch measures approximately 40 mm excluding the crown, approximately 44 mm including the crown and approximately 20 mm between the lugs.  Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 9.5 mm.  The crystal adds no additional thickness.
    Given that the movement does not run it will require a repair/service and it may possibly need to be replaced.  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 will be provided.  Thanks for looking!
