The Vintage Wrist Watch Company

Description

Silver cushion cased wrist watch, 1924.

The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely.

The watch measures 29mm wide excluding the later winding crown and 29mm high excluding the fixed lugs. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside the case back for Glasgow (import mark), 1924. There is also a sponsor’s mark for Charles Nicolet, who was the director of Stauffer & Co.

The movement is not by Stauffer, it is a period replacement that has been fitted into the case at some point.

The case is in good condition, just a gentle unevenness to the back.

The lens has a light scratch but not too noticeable to the naked eye.

The dial has Breguet style numbers and hands, the hands having a blued steel finish. A little marking to the dial.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
