hi,

i just found this tavannes chrono.
it has a 14ct solid gold case and I think the movement is a Landeron 42 (not very sure, though).
the watch works, but the chronograph part needs some attention.
is it worth fixing? any idea about it's value?
Thank you
Mihai

It will depend to some degree on how heavy the case is. I'd guess a value of $500-800 in running condition, so yes, it should be worth fixing.

thanks a lot.
the case is about 20+ grams.
the movement is Landeron 42? i couldn't find any reference on it. is it difficult to find spare parts for it?

thanks again
Mihai
