    INCOMING : Mathey-Tissot date

    Seller images. Looking for guidance on what we have here. I can't find anything directly comparable online, and have virtually no information. Size is 33mm.
    17 jewels, high beat 21,600 manual wind up. Seller claims "recently serviced". I paid less (much less) than I would expect to pay for a COA. New Tissot crown. Used leather strap.

    As someone else noted recently : "vintage watches are fertile ground for those of us with tiny wrists". 33mm works just fine, for me. Your milage may vary.

    So...what's the verdict?

    I like it. Appears to be in good shape and certainly a nice retro look.

    Love it. I'm a big fan of vintage for a lot of reasons, and this watch ticks every one of those boxes. And that movement....

    Congrats!
