This is a vintage Star Trek collectible watch, from 1998, housed in a collectible tin.

It plays the original Star Trek Theme Song at the touch of a button. PLEASE NOTE - I could NOT test this, because the battery is dead (it is 27 years old!). I did not want to open the case, as I know that, most collectors prefer

One of its neat features, is that the USS Enterprise orbits / revolves around the clock with the passing of time! How cool is that?!?

The watch is a must-have for fans of the iconic sci-fi franchise, with the Star Trek logo in the center, and the revolving U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 spacecraft.

Made by VALUE CENTER, this unique item captures the essence of the original Star Trek series and is a prized addition to any fan's collection.

AI FROM THE INTERNET:

The 1998 Star Trek Musical Collector's Edition Watch features a unique design where a miniature U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 orbits the dial to act as the second hand.

This officially licensed timepiece was manufactured by Value Center under license from Paramount Pictures, often marketed with an "As Seen On TV" promotion.

Key Features

Orbiting Starship: The miniature U.S.S. Enterprise continuously moves around the perimeter of the face to count the seconds.
Musical Theme: Pressing a dedicated push-button next to the crown plays a 17-second melody of the original Star Trek theme song. (NOT TESTED ON THIS PIECE!).
Collectible Packaging: The watch comes housed in a matching graphic tin case alongside a numbered Certificate of Authenticity (COA).
Technical Specs: It features a Japanese quartz movement, stainless steel case back, black leather strap, and a 34mm case diameter.

Current Market Value & Availability

The watch is widely available through vintage reseller networks. Modern market pricing generally fluctuates between $18 and $55, strongly dictated by the item's condition:

New Old Stock (Sealed): Sealed in the original outer packaging with intact film, it commands $35 to $55.
Open Box / Complete: Unworn but opened items with the tin, paperwork, and COA intact typically sell for $25 to $35.
Loose / Pre-owned: The watch alone or without paperwork can be found for $10 to $20.

Important Collector Notes

Battery Replacement: Because these pieces are nearly three decades old, the original battery is almost universally dead. To restore both the quartz timekeeping and the musical chime, you will need to install a fresh cell.
Tin Corrosion: Check listings carefully for any signs of scratching or surface rust on the vintage tin container from improper storage.

IMPORTANT GENERAL INFORMATION - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!

What you see is what you get - I did not use any stock photos for this listing.

I combine shipping!

The combined shipping policy is relevant ONLY for PINS, WINGS, SAMPLE SLABS, COINS, ELONGATED COINS, TOKENS, MEDALS, and other SMALL ITEMS, is the full shipping price for the auction with the highest shipping cost and then one additional dollar ($1) for the shipping and handling of each additional auction won.

Larger items will be packed, weighed, and combined as well.

If you win a few of my auctions, please ask to receive a combined invoice for everything you won.

International buyers - you must contact me before you bid to accurately determine the actual shipping cost! eBay's standard shipping costs are ridiculously high and do not reflect the actual cost of shipping internationally!!!

Returns are not accepted, unless I make a mistake in the listing or I accidentally send you the wrong item (and such mistakes do, unfortunately, happen, though seldom).

If you have ANY question - please ask ahead of the closing of the auction, and please be kind as to give me a few hours to respond.

Shipping is via the cheapest method I can find, which is via USPS Ground Advantage. If you want me to ship it any other way, such as Priority USPS, UPS, or FedEx, please contact me BEFORE buying the item, so I can research the cost. I can ship with any carrier, any way you want!

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT SHIPPING COSTS FOR LARGER ITEMS - I use eBay's system to calculate the shipping cost via USPS Ground Advantage, according to the weight, dimensions and your location. Many times, for the LARGER items, I can probably ship it for a much lesser cost with UPS or FedEx! Please send me your zip code, and what you see as the shipping cost, and I will quote a much more accurate shipping cost to you!

This item comes from a smoke-free, dog-loving home. We have a beautiful dog, who loves to spread her hair on everything. Although I do my best to clean everything that I ship out, encountering some of her lovely hair is a possibility.

I love to recycle, so there's a good chance that I will ship in a previously used envelope or box, and use paper and used grocery bags as packing and padding materials.

All of my store items have a MAKE AN OFFER option. If you make a stupid offer, I might counter with a stupid offer of my own. An offer for a few dollars less is reasonable. An offer for half of the listed price is not.

Good luck bidding!!!
