Gold-plated watches are making a comeback, but modern options are often underwhelming. Vintage gold-plated watches, like this pristine Heuer Camaro ref. 73445 CHT, offer a more affordable and enjoyable alternative.
The Camaro is a bold and stylish watch with a unique gold-on-gold finish. The case is in excellent condition, with a deep, finely detailed sunburst finish and pristine gold plating. The dial is also striking, with a heavy, vertically brushed finish and bright azurage on the subdials. The hands are chunkier than usual, but they fit the bolder visual theme of the watch well.
The Camaro is powered by a classic Valjoux 7734 hand-wound chronograph movement. This is a stable and reliable movement that is relatively easy to maintain.
If you’re looking for a gold watch that is both affordable and stylish, a vintage gold-plated watch like this Heuer Camaro ref. 73445 CHT is a great option.
