For sale is my Hamilton Fontainebleau Chrono-Matic from 1969. The watch just had a full service performed and is running like a dime. Fantastic condition all around with a handful of marks on the bracelet, case and plexi.
I'm the third owner and was told this is all original inside and out and I have no reason to believe otherwise. Date changes right at 12, chronograph runs smoothly, and the watch is keeping time very nicely. Sometimes the chrono hand doesn't reset perfectly to 12 on the first try, but after 1 or 2 more pushes it does. The top pusher sticks the odd time but is easily pulled out. This is the norm for most watches that are nearly 50 years old. The bracelet is sized for my 7.25" or so wrist and I have 2 additional links so it should fit anyone with a larger wrist. Priced at $3000 obro
The reason for selling, I'm more of a modern watch guy and I will likely buy an intramatic 68 reissue with the funds. That is also a trade option I will definately consider.
Heres a couple of albums with loads of pics.
