Buren Silver Half Hunter Pocket Watch, 1919
Antique Buren silver half hunter pocket watch, 1919.
The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Buren name, and it is all protected by an inner hinged cover.
The watch itself measures 49mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside both of the outer covers for London (import mark) 1919, with an importer's mark for William Sparrow.
The Buren Watch Company was founded in 1898 when the London based company H Williamson Ltd acquired Fritz Stuer & Cie of Büren an der Aare in Switzerland. Williamson invested heavily in Büren, in part due to the excellent rail links. The official company name of Buren Watch Company came into force from 1916. Following the stock market crash, H Williamson Ltd had to close however a group of investors, from Switzerland and England, provided the financial backing to continue watch production in Switzerland, now under the name Uhrenfabrik Buren AG.
Buren was a very successful company and supplied watches for the British military, including of course one of the members of the Dirty Dozen WWW watches. The case is in good condition, just a couple of small indentations to the back. Originally both the front and back would have had engine turned detail but this has rubbed over the years, just from use.
The front cover has a small lens surrounded by enamel filled Roman numerals.
The winding crown pushes in to open the front cover. Inside there is an acrylic lens which is in good condition.
The dial is in good condition. It has the special half hunter hour hand so even when the front cover is closed, the hands can be distinguished between and the time read.
The watch will be sent in a new presentation box. ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (excluding Northern Ireland).
Please contact us for international shipping prices. Due to changes in EU regulations, including Northern Ireland, we no longer ship to these destinations.
For other countries, The Vintage Wrist Watch Company operates on a Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU) basis which means that the international buyer is responsible for any import duties, taxes & customs which may be necessary to release an order from international customs. Tax and import duty varies from country to country so we recommend you check with your local tax office to see if any fees will be payable. If the customer refuses to pay any duty and customs charges and the parcel is returned to sender all shipping and associated charges will be deducted from any refund.
Due to Customs regulations, we are unable to send watches / precious metals to certain countries. If you are unsure about your country’s regulations, please contact us and we can check for you. Any orders from prohibited countries will be refunded, less any Paypal fees which are non-refundable.
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.
