A superb vintage Swatch Colossal SCB109 Chronograph, dating from the early 1990s and one of the more interesting Swatch chronographs from this period. The dial is marked © Swatch AG 1991 and this model is known as the Colossal SCB109.
This is not just a standard three-hand Swatch. It uses a Swiss quartz chronograph movement with an impressive 22 jewels, which is actually marked on the case back. The three-register dial combines blue, silver, black and gold detailing, Roman numerals and gold-tone hands, crown and chronograph pushers.
A very distinctive and increasingly collectible vintage Swatch.
Pre-loved watch in good condition. The watch itself presents very nicely for its age. The leather strap shows age-related wear, particularly around the attachment areas and edges, which can clearly be seen in the photographs and has been reflected in the price.
A new battery has been fitted and the watch has been fully tested and is working.
These early 22-jewel Swatch chronographs are considerably more unusual than the standard Swatch models and have developed a following with collectors. Comparable pre-loved 1991 22-jewel Swatch chronographs are currently advertised around the £60+ level, with particularly good boxed examples higher.
