🧭 Watch Overview:

This is a one-of-a-kind Swiss-made custom-built watch with a date pointer and sub-second dial, inspired by vintage designs. It's based on a NOS Bulova 10BPAD automatic movement — extremely rare and high performance. Most watches with this layout are hand-wound and in poor condition. This one? Fresh, unique, and built with care.

🥚 The design resembles an egg — the case as the shell, the dial as the white, the pointer hand as the yolk, and the sub-seconds as a baby yolk. A rare artistic piece.

🛠️ Watchmaker’s Notes:

I build and restore vintage automatic watches as a hobby using my background in precision engineering and aesthetics. Every watch I offer is:

• 
  

  ✅ Fully disassembled and freshly lubricated

  
  


• 
  

  ✅ Timegrapher regulated for precision

  
  


• 
  

  ✅ Professionally cleaned and reassembled

  
  


• 
  

  ✅ No Chinese parts used — even the spring bars are Swiss-made

  
  

Unlike mass-produced mod watches that use cheap Chinese cases or movements, I carefully source high-quality, vintage-compatible components.

🧩 Why This Watch Is Special:

• 
  

  🔍 Pointer-date + sub-second = very rare combination

  
  


• 
  

  💎 NOS Bulova movement — smooth, sweet winding

  
  


• 
  

  🖼️ Artistic look, with layers of design complexity

  
  


• 
  

  🚫 Not another off-the-shelf mod or Etsy knockoff

  
  


• 
  

  💡 Impossible to find another one like it

🕰️ Why Wear Vintage?

In the 1960s and 70s, mechanical watchmaking was at its peak. After that, electronics took over. This watch isn’t just a timekeeper — it’s a statement against the flood of soulless smartwatches.

Wear something different. Wear something real.
