What's on Offer

A really nice example here, with a dial that has taken on a really pleasing tropical colour.  This ageing process is completely normal depending on the climate the watch has been kept in and only gives more of a vintage Look. The watch being from the 1950s is in really nice shape, the unique arrowhead markers still boast their original lume pips that are still intact and the same goes for the original chrome hands which are in really nice shape.

The case is Stainless Steel and there are small whisperings of light wear around the mid-case, however nothing of any concern. The caseback is in very good condition with only very light wear and is a screw-down mechanism. At just over 34mm, it is at the smaller end of mid-size watches, however, it wears beautifully on the wrist, a fine-looking Swiss-made vintage watch by a renowned historic watchmaking company. Certainly a worthy contender for any vintage collection.
