Case: Case a little polished, pointed crown guards called “cornino”, still has the chamfers a little rounded by the time but visible, good general condition. Serial numbers and reference clearly visible. The pointed crown guard is still quite thick not too polished. Later back case from 1972 most likely changed in a service

Accessories: None

Our opinion: The Ref. 1675 arrived on the market in 1959 following the reference 6542 with its bakelite bezel and without crown guard. Several variants of this reference exist, the first being with a pointed crown guard also called cornino followed in 1964 by the classic thicker crown guard. A big variant of dials has also been released depending on the year with Swiss only chapter ring dials like this model or even underline, double Swiss, exclamation point etc…. This makes it a very collector’s reference, especially before 1963 with many different dials, all of which were rarely produced. Beautiful copy of the 1675 first generation cornino chapter ring swiss only from 1962.
