WillFly Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Gradus was yet another solid Swiss manufacture from the 1950s/60s that used a selection of solid movements. They go from anywhere between £20 and £60 on the Bay or in auctions. Imagine my surprise when I spotted this one going for £8 on eBay - with no bids on it. Well ... you know me ... It needs a new crystal, and the bracelet will be replaced by a nice, new 18mm leather strap, but it's in excellent nick, with a nice FHF-ST 96 movement in it. A bargain as far as I'm concerned.

Geo Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 A bargain by any standard, well done Will. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobm12 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Nice catch Will, that's one of the movements used to train in the TZ course and is very nice, popular and strong. Cheers, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramrod Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 i've never seen or heard of a gradus until now. there are two on fleabay - one of them is going for small money it seems. i might have to look a these in the future.i really like those underrated and underappreciated brands. it makes collecting a LOT cheaper.

bobm12 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Hi Will, can you estimate the diameter of the watch, please? Would you say it is about 38mm? Maybe bigger....smaller? Thank you in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
