TAG HEUER Leonidas Manual Wind Alarm Watch | With Original Box

This is a highly valuable vintage piece symbolizing the integration period of TAG Heuer and Leonidas.
Leonidas was a prestigious manufacturer in Switzerland that developed primarily chronographs and merged with Heuer in 1964. It played a crucial role in the transition leading to the birth of TAG Heuer. This particular item is a mechanical alarm-equipped model, which is rarely seen in circulation within its lineage.
Among Leonidas, known for its chronographs, models equipped with alarm mechanisms are limited in number and belong to a category highly regarded in the collector's market.
The hand-wound alarm operates via a dedicated mainspring and hammer mechanism, characterized by the unique mechanical vibration sound that resonates within the case.
Furthermore, what deserves special mention is the inclusion of the original box.
Items from that era, including their original sales packaging, are scarce, making this an important element that enhances its historical and collectible value.

◆Condition
The crystal is free of scratches, and the visibility is excellent. The dial and hands are also in beautiful condition.
Due to long-term storage, the strap has become slightly stiff.

The crown at the 2 o'clock position is used to adjust the alarm's power reserve, turn it off/on, and advance the alarm hand. (When pulled out, the alarm is ON.)
When fully wound, the alarm rings for approximately 13 seconds with a jijijiji sound (similar to the chirping of a cricket-type insect).
