This vintage 1970s Baylor Automatic Day-Date features an angular tonneau case, fluted bezel, and a brushed slate sunburst dial. Powered by a 17-jewel Swiss ETA 2789 automatic movement, this mechanical piece is tested, calibrated on a timegrapher, and completely turnkey for the next owner.
Why This Piece Stands Out:
• Calibrated & Timegrapher Verified: Powered by a 17-jewel Swiss ETA 2789 automatic caliber. Tested and regulated dial-up on a digital timegrapher, pulling an accurate -6s/d rate, healthy 254° amplitude, and a sharp 0.4ms beat error (verified in listing photos).
• 1970s Integrated Tonneau Styling: Classic retro presence featuring an angular stainless steel case with vertical brushed facets, polished fluted coin-edge bezel, and day-date quickset window at 3:00.
• Honest Vintage Condition: Preserved in great vintage shape. The dial exhibits light, natural patina/spotting, with crisp text and applied markers intact. The stainless steel case retains sharp factory bevels with light surface wear consistent with age.
• Bracelet & Sizing: Mounted on a sturdy stainless steel oyster-style link bracelet fitted with a secure fold-over Pulsar safety clasp. Current wrist sizing (~6.25"–6.5") is clearly displayed on the sizing mandrel in the photos.
