Gents 1951 Tissot automatic wrist watch
Gents 1951 Tissot automatic wrist watch.
The watch has a bumper automatic movement which is working nicely. This is the calibre 28.5-1 which was in production from 1944 until 1953. The movement is fully signed and the serial number 2,491,280 dates it back to 1951
Early automatic watches relied on the rotor ‘bumping’ backwards and forwards between two springs to maintain the power within the movement. Later automatic watches have the fully rotational rotor.
The watch measures 33mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is gold plated with the thicker 40 microns as opposed to the usual 10 or 20 microns, and it is in very nice condition. The stainless steel screw-on case back is signed with the Tissot name, it also states that the watch is waterproof but, as with any vintage watch, it should be kept away from water and moisture.
The lens is in good condition.
The signed dial is in its original finish with original dauphine shaped hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track. The dial has darkened with age, plenty of vintage appeal.
A later leather strap has been fitted.
The watch will be sent in a new presentation box. ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (excluding Northern Ireland).
Please contact us before placing international orders so that we can advise of shipping prices and to see if customs regulations allow us to post watches to your country.
The international buyer is responsible for paying any import duties and taxes.
All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.
Credit / debit card purchases can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the \'Buy Securely\' button on each listing page.
We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.
