Dugena - Super Automatic - No reserve price - Cal.1010A...

If the superb condition of this Dugena Super, with its sharp and well-preserved case, doesn't catch your eye, perhaps its beautiful dial with its evenly aged patina will. And if that still isn't enough, just take a look at the movement! At the heart of this elegant vintage watch beats the Dugena calibre 1010A, based on the Swiss Buren 1001A micro-rotor movement. Its beautifully finished, gold-toned components and ingenious construction make it a real delight for any mechanical watch enthusiast. It is a shame that such craftsmanship remains hidden from view most of the time! Introduced in the late 1950s, the micro-rotor was an ingenious alternative to conventional automatic movements. Rather than placing a large winding rotor on top of the movement, the compact rotor is integrated into its structure, allowing for a slimmer profile while preserving the convenience of automatic winding. The Dugena Super combines this fascinating horological technology with timeless 1960s styling. Its well-preserved case retains crisp lines, while the dial displays an attractive, even patina that adds character without detracting from its overall appeal. This is a watch for the collector who appreciates more than just a name on the dial: a thoughtfully engineered movement, honest vintage character and understated watchmaking heritage, powered by a Swiss mechanical heart. A particularly appealing opportunity to own a vintage micro-rotor automatic that deserves to be admired both on the wrist and under the loupe. ## Technical specifications * Brand: Dugena * Model: Super Automatic * Period: Late 1950s–early 1960s * Movement: Swiss automatic, Dugena calibre 1010A (Büren 1001A base) in good running condition * Winding system: Integrated micro-rotor * Jewels: 25 * Frequency: 18,000 vibrations per hour * Power reserve: Approximately 42 hours * Functions: Hours, minutes, central seconds and date * Case diameter: 35 mm, excluding crown * Lug width: 18 mm * Crystal: acrylic with some light marks * Condition: Well-preserved case with attractive, even dial patina This eigens will be carefully packed and shipped insured
