A Gents 1940s Wrist Watch, Good Size gents  mens mans %%alt5%%
A gents 1940s wrist watch.

The watch has a Swiss hand-winding movement, with 15 jewels, which is working nicely.

The watch is a good size for a piece from its era at 34mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The top lugs have, at some stage, had a fantastic professional repair… a fixed bar has been fitted, giving a solid substantial repair. The case is a combination usually seen from the mid 40s onwards with a plated (gold plated in this case) bezel, an alloy centre and a stainless steel case back.

The lens is in good condition.

The dial is signed Ancre, 15 Rubis. Ancre is the French term for pallets, a vital part in the watch’s escapement. The word was used as a kind of marketing term to show the watch was “technically advanced”. The stylised numbers on the dial are a most charming and unusual feature.

A new black leather strap has been fitted.
