Gallet "Electa"open faced pocket watch with chain
A Gallet "Electa"open faced pocket watch with chain.
Electa was a division of Gallet. Gallet is perhaps the oldest watch and antique clock making house with history dating back to Humbertus Gallet, a clock maker who became a citizen of Geneva in 1466. Today they are regarded as an historic Swiss manufacturer of high-end timepieces for professional, military, sports, racing, and aviation use.
This particular watch has a 15 jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is visible through the inspection lens on the back of the watch, probably a later addition as screws have been removed from the movement to allow a snug fit for the lens.
The watch itself measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is chrome plated and has a screw-on bezel and back.
The main faces of the glass lenses are in good condition although the front one has some chips to the bevelled edge.
The white enamel dial has three faint hairlines although only one is visible to the naked eye. Blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.
The watch comes on a double chain.
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.
