Reproduction or not, I think it's pretty cool. Is it a quartz or mechanical movement?

A classy timepiece!
What I hate about quartz watches is changing the batteries even if it's once every few years. Because with the exception of a few brands like Swatch you either have to incur the added expense of having someone open it up to replace the batteries or invest in some watchmaker's tools to do it yourself.
Do you know what the movement code is as I have been looking for a quartz sub dial for a while now.Glad you like it--Quartz movement!
Looks like a homage to Breguet.[/IMG]
This one is not vintage but a good example of a new retro style Hamilton.
Not vintage in date but definately in style my 2010 Sekonda quartz, obviously stylede after Brietling etc;
All the small dials work as does the inner bezel for working out distance/ fuel consupmtion etc...the strap is a replacement as I didn't like the original too much.
A new one sent down by my father. It was handed into his shop "to be used for parts". he cleaned it and passed it on to me. He happened to have a nice old military strap hanging around his workbench … Any ideas on age? He said 60s, but the aesthetic seems a bit older than that to me.
