***********Although the FHF 905 automatic movement keeps accurate time over its 43 hour power reserve period and the date wheel rolls over without issue given its unknown service history a complete overhaul is likely long overdue and recommended.*********** This seldom seen vintage 1970’s Avia diver, which came from the estate of its original owner, has a blackish grey « SWISS MADE » signed dial that is in lovely but not perfect condition as it shows age-related wear. The original lume, which remains fully intact and emits a quick burst glow after being exposed to bright light, has aged gracefully. In my humble opinion the vibrant orange seconds hand gives energy and oodles of character to this watch. The silver bezel, which shows light wear, rotates smoothly bidirectionally. The all stainless steel case shows honest wear with minor signs of oxidation. As clearly seen in pictures 22-24 the bottom of the top left lug has an inscription. The outer edge of the case back is stamped « STAINLESS STEEL – SWISS MADE – WATERPROOF – ANTIMAGNETIC – INCABLOC » with « 20 ATM » followed by « 01-0905 » and « 0194 » stamped in the center. Although the crystal presents nicely in person it should be replaced as it shows scratching and microfractures upon close inspection. The 17 jewels Swiss FHF 905 automatic movement with quickset date function keeps accurate time and the date wheel rolls over at 12 am. The quickset date function works flawlessly by unscrewing the crown, pulling it out to the final position and then turning it clockwise to reverse the date and counterclockwise to advance it. After recently winding the crown 39 full revolutions the movement had an approximate 43 hour power reserve period. The screwdown crown unscrews and screws back down perfectly as it should and winds buttery smooth. Given the movement’s unknown service history a complete overhaul is likely long overdue and recommended.This watch measures approximately 36 mm excluding the crown, approximately 41 mm including the crown and approximately 19 mm between the lugs. Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 10 mm. Including the crystal thickness measures approximately 12 mm. The lug to lug distance measures approximately 41 mm. A complete overhaul is recommended. As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time. Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility. Please thoroughly read this entire listing and kindly ask any and all questions you may have prior to buying as this sale is final and no refunds of any kind will be given. And please study the 24 high magnification pictures carefully as they are part of the description and serve as an accurate representation of the condition of this watch. Expedited and insured shipping along with signature confirmation will be provided. Thanks for looking!
