Features/selling points: This time, we would like to introduce the Ranko hand-wound watch “2reg. Chronograph Ref.961-1462 91007V 6”. 1970's vintage collection. It is a model that watch fans like, equipped with the "Valjoux 7733", which is known as a luxury machine.

The dial is a Zorro dial called among collectors. Combination of printed index and wide bar hand. It is a modern and pop design like no other, such as the vivid color orange chrono hands that stand out. The SS case has a screw back and a satin-polished cushion form. The band is equipped with an external leather color strap. It is a gem of a connoisseur's taste that creates a higher-grade fashion with a novel design.

Method of operation: The knob on the right side of the case is the crown. Manual winding can be done in the same position.

Since this is a hand-wound watch, please use the crown to wind up the mainspring every day. The mainspring may break if the mainspring is wound more strongly than it stops, so please wind it up as slowly and gently as possible. Turn the crown to the right (clockwise) and wind it up by pushing it forward with the belly of your fingertip.

When the crown is pulled out and turned, the hands move and the time can be adjusted. There is no hack (second hand stop) function.

To operate the chrono, press the upper right pusher to start/stop, and press the lower pusher to reset.

Accessories: Watch shop repair details (overhauled in 2022).
