Kelek Chrono

[jan klaas]

hallo
i was at the rikketik in houten in holland last sunday,and i found this nice kelek chronograph with a valjoux handwind movement.
i like the dail very much.

Keleks Prinzip seinerzeit war bahnbrechend: nämlich die Bereitstellung interessanter Komplikationen für relativ kleines Geld. Von Kelek gab es z.B. sehr günstige Repetitionen in vergoldeten Gehäusen. Eine Uhr für Insider: viel Werk, wenig Gehäusewert, somit bezahlbar.

und nun teuer hehe schade schade hätte man damals mal ein paar davon gekauft als Mr. Tick dort noch angestellt war.

the watchmaker with the tick!i know this man a little ,he is a very nice and helpfull person , when i want to buy a steel bracelet for my chronoswiss, i had some problems with getting the right bandanstosse at my chronoswiss dealer ,they didn't fitt good and the dealer said that the anstosse must be the right one's and wouldend order new one's ,so after some problems a phoned herr lang my self a couple of times and he personaly fixed the problem for me and we had a nice conversation about his passion and my/his watch a chronoswiss lunar.
what i also heard is that kelek belonged to breitling in the 70's ,when a was at the rikketik where i bought the kelek a saw exactly the same watch but then of breitling only with a differend kind of ugly dial.

gr jan klaas.

that's true my friend.
Breitling bought this brand in the 70ies.

If you compare the models from the 60/70ies of the following brands

-Heuer
-Breitling
-Kelek

you will see that they look very similar. 8o

I owned also a nice Kelek Chronograph a few years ago.
A very good daily beater.

congrats on your wonderful watch!
wear it in good health, my friend! :gut:

From my knowledge Kelek belongs today again to Breitling, developping the complications within the group.

Beside the sporting side they had also "fine" wristwatches a.l.a. the 5 minutes repeater which were also distribute by Chronoswiss and Nivrel at very competitive prices (long ago).

It hope that may be of assistance for you.
