Double-Boxed Late 1970’s TISSOT (Swiss) ‘Seven’ Tank Dress Watch Marble Dial – Automatic Cal. 2381 (ETA 2671)

This is a wonderfully retro and classy ‘Tank’ dress date watch by Tissot (Swiss) that has been professionally inspected by Localtime. The gold-plated tank case(25mm or 27.50mm including the branded crown at 3h) is a looker on the wrist. The golden brown ‘marble-pattern’ dial is just beautiful and, combined with the white indices and hands, steals the show from all angles. The date window is located at 6h. Its carrying a Tissot Cal. 2381 (based on the ETA Cal. 2671) and is wearing one of my own Tejus lizard grain leather straps in dark brown (these lovely straps are also listed separately in the store). Condition-wise its excellent. It came to me wearing its original strap with logoed buckle and even its original brass spring bars! Even if the original strap is no longer wearable, I will include it with the watch for the new buyer. It comes double-boxed in a wonderful Tissot box. As with all the watches we handle in-house, the listed price includes a 6-month written warranty from the time of purchase. Do not hesitate to contact us for any further information you might need.

Important Note: Sometimes I am asked what I exactly mean with ‘professionally inspected by Localtime’. Here is my theory on vintage watches: as a purveyor of vintage watches, my effort is to always do only what is needed to the watch. I do not buy ‘junk’ watches to resell. I am choosy with my purchases and always sell watches that are, to my knowledge, authentic and in good condition. I first inspect the watch, both visually (cosmetically) and then mechanically. If I judge that the watch is not yet in need of a full service then I do not put the watch through a service which, by the way, entails a lot of risks too. Instead, I give it what I call my ‘Spa’ treatment which will include a cleaning, changing of gaskets, oiling, lubricating and mechanical testing. If the plexi is heavily scratched or discoloured and it can not be cleaned, I change it. If the crown is wrong or worn, I also change it. Now, if the watch is in need of a full service, then my ‘professionally inspected’ description becomes ‘professionally serviced’. In both cases, I mention what has been changed (if anything) on the watch and I include a written warranty with my listed price.

Important Note On Straps/Bracelets: The straps I use on my watches (leather, canvas, suede, rubber) are always brand new, unless otherwise mentioned and, in most cases, I also sell them separately in my store, in different colours and sizes. In the case of metal bracelets, if the watch is NOS, the bracelet is also unused. If the watch is pre-owned with its original bracelet, then the bracelet is also pre-owned, unless otherwise mentioned. Either way, if in doubt, please ask.
