    I am offering these together because I have been collecting GuB Glashutte watches with the intention of finding the perfect Deco Dial version, and these accumulated in my collection to compliment each other. If you look these up on eBay you can see that my prices are very reasonable, and I’ll eat the fees for domestic USA purchases. Originally I bought the black-dial Spezimatic because it came so close to my ideal, but once I had it, I became concerned about difficulties in finding replacement parts if it developed problems: so I bought the Bison with an identical movement that runs almost perfectly, intending to keep it as a donor. Then last year the cal 69.1 popped up and I had to get it because it came even closer to my ideal… but in catching my prize I think my obsession has faded. As I am trying to downsize my collection, these are simply not getting the wrist time they deserve.




    Cal. 69.1 Deco Dial Specs:
    Diameter 36mm not including crown, 38mm w/crown
    11mm thick, 18mm lugs, 43mm lug-lug
    Hand-wind movement with date, non-hacking,
    (service history unknown; stiff wind shows strong hairspring, but go slowly to avoid slippage.)
    Date is set back/forth across 12 (9:30-12:30)
    Dome acrylic crystal in good condition
    20µ gold plated case
    Gold dial and lettering in decent original condition,
    (some foxing visible around markers, some specs visible on dial)
    The gold plated hands do show small signs of age.
    Compression fit rear of case, I have not popped it.
    Original seller’s movement picture is included here.
    Included brown German Rios Teju Calf strap





    Spezimatic Cal. 75 Black Deco Specs:
    Diameter 36mm not including crown, 38mm w/crown
    11mm thick, 18mm lugs, 41mm lug-lug
    Automatic movement with date,
    Date is set back/forth across 12 (9:30-12:30)
    Dome acrylic crystal in very good condition, no scratches
    Black dial and gold lettering in almost NOS condition,
    20µ gold plated case in rather good condition, some small marks.
    The gold plated hands do show small signs of age.
    Compression fit rear of case, saw no signs of corrosion inside when opened.
    Seller claimed that watch was cleaned and lubed before sale.
    Watch winds easily and runs a few minutes fast per day, might benefit from de-mag or calibration.
    Included black IW Suisse Ostrich Calf strap





    Spezimatic Bison Cal 75 Specs:
    Diameter 36mm not including crown, 38mm w/crown
    11mm thick, 18mm lugs, 43mm lug-lug
    Automatic movement with date, service history unknown
    (Winds smoothly and keeps time very well, this is the best movement of these three)
    Date is set back/forth across 12 (9:30-12:30)
    Flattened dome acrylic crystal in good condition, one hairline scratch hard to see.
    Gold dial and black markers in decent original condition,
    dial shows evidence of friction from hour-hand at some point in the past
    (it appears to have been repaired, as the hand does not seem to touch now)
    14k gold plated case, showing some brassing at shoulder of lugs and light wear.
    Compression fit rear of case, I have not popped it.
    Included black IW Suisse Ostrich Calf strap

    I’m trying to keep an oversized collection in check. I try to give full disclosure about known conditions. I don't make profit on my sales, so I prefer to ship only in north America, but I'm flexible if you are. Selling as-is. I promise I am describing full known condition (veering towards negatives for this reason, knowing and sharing our slightly obsessive WIS nature.) Price includes Paypal fees and shipping USA/Canada first class un-insured. (If you want special or overseas shipping we can discuss extra costs.) I have purchased and sold many watches as “skywatch” on WUS, with good feedback. Thanks! - Robert
