The Lanco mechanical chronograph.

The Lanco mechanical chronograph.

Some drawers are better than others. And let me tell you, the drawer containing this Lanco is my favorite yet.

Found hiding amongst a few broken Orients and Timexes, laid this 1970s mechanical chronograph from Swiss brand Lanco. And it worked right away. Ticking precisely and beautifully, keeping time, and sounding just like an older chrono movement should. The chronograph second hand even resets perfectly! Definitely a rare find on a 50 year old watch. 

This thing is beautiful and although it works just like it should, I will be sending it in for a complete service and light polishing before it goes for sale. Because I want you to trust that any watch you buy from WITNShop, is in great working order.
