***********The Lorsa P75 manual wind movement loses about a minute by the end of its approximate 41 hour power reserve period and the roulette date wheel rolls over at approximately 10:45 pm. Given that the movement doesn't appear to have been serviced since the 1980's a complete overhaul is long overdue and recommended. Additionally, this is a midsize watch, measuring approximately 31 mm excluding the crown, approximately 34 mm including the crown and approximately 18 mm between the lugs. *********** This unisex vintage 1960's Le Jour diver has under the heavily worn crystal a glossy black "FRANCE" signed dial that is in decent condition showing age-related wear and finish loss. The lume, which no longer glows after being exposed to bright light, has aged gracefully.  The black bezel, which shows wear and rotates smoothly bidirectionally, presents nicely . The chrome-plated case shows honest wear with minor signs of brassing .  The outer edge of the case back is stamped "WATERPROOF   STAINLESS STEEL BACK."  The inside of the case back is stamped "CONTINENTAL TIME" followed by "MADE IN FRANCE."   The crystal needs to be replaced.   The 17 jewels unadjusted France "CONTINENTAL TIME Co INC" stamped P75 manual wind movement runs strong, albeit a smidge slow, and the roulette (red odd, black even) date wheel rolls over at approximately 10:45 pm .   This movement does not have a semi-quickset date function. After recently winding the non-screwdown crown 25 full revolutions the movement lost about a minute by the end of its approximate 41 hour power reserve period.   The crown winds smoothly.   There are a few visible watchmaker service markings on the inside of the case back which appear to date to the 1980's.   Given that the movement likely hasn't been serviced in approximately 40 years a complete overhaul is long overdue and recommended.  This watch measures approximately 31 mm excluding the crown, approximately 34 mm including the crown and approximately 18 mm between the lugs.  Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 8 mm.  Including the crystal case thickness measures approximately 10 mm. A complete overhaul is long overdue and recommended.  As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch. Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time. Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility. Please thoroughly read this entire listing and kindly ask any and all questions you may have prior to buying as this sale is final and no refunds of any kind will be given.  And please study the 24 high magnification pictures carefully as they are part of the description and serve as an accurate representation of the condition of this watch. Expedited and insured shipping will be provided.  Thanks for looking! ***********The Lorsa P75 manual wind movement loses about a minute by the end of its approximate 41 hour power reserve period and the roulette date wheel rolls over at approximately 10:45 pm.
