Solus Chronograph Watch Appraisal

Solus Chronograph Watch

This item is a men's chronograph wristwatch, featuring a classic design with modern elements. The watch has a round, silver-toned metal case, which appears to be stainless steel, with a polished finish. The dial is dark (likely black or a very dark navy) with contrasting light-colored markings. It features applied Arabic numeral hour markers at the 12, 2, 4, 8, and 10 o'clock positions, interspersed with white stick indices for the remaining hours and minute markers around the outer edge. The watch includes a chronograph function, indicated by two subdials visible at approximately the 3 and 9 o'clock positions, and two pushers on the side of the case flanking the main crown. The brand name 'SOLUS' is prominently displayed below the 12 o'clock position. A date window is present at the 6 o'clock position. The hands are a combination of silver-toned and possibly luminescent material, with a slender seconds hand. The watch is fitted with a light brown leather strap with visible stitching along its edges, secured by a silver-toned tang buckle. The leather strap shows some creasing and minor wear consistent with use, particularly around the buckle area. The overall condition appears good with no significant visible damage like deep scratches or cracks on the crystal, though a full assessment of wear to the case and crystal would require closer inspection. The style suggests it could be a contemporary piece, likely from the 2010s or more recent, blending classic chronograph aesthetics with a minimalist approach.
