Breil - Antichoc - No reserve price - 86123 - Men - 1980-1989

An interesting Breil Antichoc vintage, a manual-wind mechanical watch dating roughly to the 1980s production, characterized by classic proportions and an elegant aesthetic today typically associated with dress watches of the era. The case measures 28 × 35 mm and features a gold finish, long straight lugs, and a stainless steel case back bearing the number 86123. Particularly distinctive is the gold crown embellished with a black cabochon, a detail that reinforces the watch's elegant styling. The silver/ivory dial features a pleasantly finely textured surface, inner chemin-de-fer minute track, Roman numerals at the four cardinal points and intermediate linear indices. The BREIL signature is positioned at the top, while at 6 o'clock the italic inscription Antichoc appears. The two-hand configuration keeps the design exceptionally clean. Inside there is a Swiss manual-wind mechanical movement, with decorated bridges and jewels visible. From the photographs alone it is not possible to attribute with sufficient certainty the caliber and the exact number of jewels, therefore these data are not disclosed. The specimen shows the usual age-related signs: wear and alteration of the gold finish, small scratches on the case, and a diffuse patina on the dial, particularly evident around the perimeter. These elements attest to the natural aging of the watch without compromising its vintage charm. Documentation relating to a recent servicing is not available. Water resistance untested and not guaranteed.
