Which brand is this Drivers LED watch ?

Post07 Jul 2013, 16:31

Hello Members,
I have got a lot of LED watches in a sail and this was one of them.
I don't know which brand it is and because I am planning it to sell on Ebay I like to know, probebley ther is some one who knows.

Hopefully there is some one who knows.

Thanks and greetings from The Netherlands,

Hi Bonki! The watch was produced by Modulus and it was also available in the USA with the Advance brand. If I remember correctly, Modulus was the electronic watches division of Auguste Reymond SA (ARSA) which in the '70s was part of the ASUAG conglomerate, the main competitor of the SSIH. Its module was made by Modulus, and it was planned to be the ASUAG response to the ESA's "driver style" module fitted in the Mido/JAZ/Pontiac Swissonic LED watch.

Interesting that it has the Hamilton-style display, with the single colon dot...

Ja zeer zeker een Advance ik heb er ook ééntje in mijn collectie.
Zag deze al op Ebay, vind het jammer van de inscriptie.
Het horloge bandje ziet er wel een stuk beter uit, bij mij is hier het goud wat afgesleten.

Veel succes met de verkoop.

Hi Bruce,
