This near mint Chase-Durer Combat Command has been worn sparingly.  I am cleaning out the cases, and this lost out to other selections…I picked this watch up from Europe and the dial is just slightly too busy for my personal tastes, but others love it!

The beautiful bead-blast finish is unmarred…and the quality of fit & finish on this watch is amazing…the SS Bracelet, with solid end links and double safety SS bracelet is also unmarred with the minor exception of some barely noticeable and sized to a 7’ wrist (extra links are included).

This serial numbered watch (#00546-99-1) is powered by the ETA Valjoux 7750 engine.  All hands and bezel properly align and function per specifications...the unidirectional bezel clicks smoothly.  Full specifications are below.  This dial color is no longer in production, and street price on other colors, if you can find it, ranges from $1,015 to $1195.  This watch is available for SOLD or best offer, shipped USPS Priority, CONUS Only, no fee paypal.  PM if interested.
