Exactus Chronographe Antimagnetic 17 Rubis 18K Gold Vintage Chronograph

This vintage Exactus Chronographe is a distinctive manual-winding two-register chronograph featuring a silver/off-white dial, gilt Arabic numerals, contrasting subsidiary registers and a red outer tachymeter scale marked “Base 1000”. The dial is signed “Exactus Chronographe” together with “Antimagnetic” and “17 Rubis”. The yellow-gold caseback is visibly hallmarked 18K / 0.750. Offered in Good Condition on a brown textured leather strap, this individual example is supplied without its original box or papers.

Exactus Chronographe Antimagnetic 17 Rubis

The dial gives this vintage Exactus much of its character. Its classic bi-compax layout uses two subsidiary registers positioned at approximately 3 and 9 o'clock, complemented by a central red chronograph seconds hand. Applied gilt Arabic numerals sit against the silver/off-white dial, while the outer red tachymeter scale is marked “Base 1000”.

The exact production year and reference number have not been confirmed, so neither is represented as definitive on this watch.

18K / 0.750 Hallmarked Gold Case

The caseback of this individual watch is visibly stamped 18K and 0.750, indicating 18-carat gold fineness. Additional markings and the number 292562 are visible on the caseback; this number has not been identified as a specific Exactus reference and is therefore not presented as the model reference.

The case shows visible surface scratches, marks and age-related wear consistent with a vintage pre-owned watch. The polished fixed bezel also displays surface wear.

Manual-Winding Chronograph

This Exactus uses a mechanical manual-winding chronograph configuration with 17 jewels stated on the dial. Its functions include hours, minutes, running seconds, central chronograph seconds and a 30-minute chronograph register.

The exact movement calibre has not been confirmed and will not be attributed until the movement has been inspected.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the reference number of this Exactus Chronographe?

The exact manufacturer reference has not yet been confirmed. The number 292562 is visible on the caseback, but we do not currently identify this as the model reference.

Is this Exactus chronograph an 18K gold watch?

The caseback is visibly stamped 18K and 0.750, the recognised fineness marking for 18-carat gold. These markings are visible on the individual watch shown in the photographs.

What year was this Exactus watch made?

The exact production year has not been verified. It is therefore listed simply as a vintage Exactus chronograph rather than being assigned an unsupported year or decade.

No. This watch is supplied without its original box, papers, warranty card, booklets or tags.

What movement does this Exactus use?

It is a mechanical manual-winding chronograph with 17 rubies stated on the dial. The exact calibre has not yet been verified, so no calibre number is claimed.

Is this vintage Exactus water resistant?

No water-resistance claim is made. Water resistance has not been confirmed and vintage watches should be kept away from water unless specifically pressure tested.
