From the late 1960s onwards, Cyma became part of Synchron, a Swiss watch group that also brought together other established manufacturers, including Doxa and Ernest Borel. Watches from this period were therefore frequently signed “Cyma by Synchron”, as seen on this example.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003eThe Synchron era produced a wide range of watches using reliable Swiss ébauches, particularly movements from ETA, often re-signed and given Synchron calibre designations. This watch is powered by the 17-jewel Synchron calibre 45, a manually wound movement with date indication belonging to the ETA 2750 family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003eIts design is characteristic of the early 1970s: a restrained silver sunburst dial, applied baton hour markers, a framed date aperture at 3 o'clock and a relatively slim case with angular lugs. The original steel bracelet complements the clean, understated appearance particularly well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in;
