Classic 1970s Helbros “Self-Winding” men’s watch with a clean silver-tone dial, date at 3, and the cool “West Germany” marking at 6 o’clock. This is a true vintage daily-wear piece with honest age: the case and crystal show light scratches/scuffs and moderate signs of use, but the bezel and lugs still retain a sharp profile and the watch presents well on the wrist. It’s fitted with a period-correct stainless steel expansion/flex band in fantastic condition that matches the era perfectly. Inside markings include PUW 1561 (17-jewel automatic) and 21,600 bph, and it has been tested on a timegrapher at approximately ±10 seconds/day, ~155° amplitude, and 0.1 ms beat error—running well.
