We think the Claude Bernard 01506 3 NIN is one of the nicest Claude Bernard watches in our collection. It has a fascinating quartz movement with retrograde and chronograph functions. Especially the retrograde function is one which you don't see on too many watches, so there is a unique element to this watch. It translates to 'come back', which means the seconds hand on this watch doesn't go in a circle, but in a half (180 degree) circle. It goes from 0 to 60 and then jumps back to 0.

SeriousWatches is an authorised dealer of Claude Bernard watches. This watch comes with a 2 year warranty, the beautiful Claude Bernard box and the warranty card. Worldwide shipping is free.

This watch is a 'B-stock' item. It was either returned to us in less than perfect condition or used as a display model or just can't be sold as a 100% brand new model. It does still come with the full 2 year warranty. We use a rating that ranks from 1/5 to 5/5, where 1/5 is a very minor blemish and 5/5 extensive wear. The pictures used are of the actual watch.

We only have 1 of each listing available. 

B-Stock rating: 4/5

Tags and foils: No

B-stock reason: Scratches across the case and caseback. Sticker residue left on caseback which is tricky to remove without damaging the watch. After testing, our watchmaker discovered that the watch is also no longer fully waterproof.
