Gents Avia wrist watch, c1960
Gents Avia wrist watch, c1960.
The watch has a Swiss 17-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely. In the photo of the movement, you will see two empty retaining screw holes. These screws are not required in this particular instance because there is a retaining ring to hold the movement in place.
The watch measures 31mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs so it would suit a slimmer wrist. The main body of the case is gold plated, it has small surface marks, not too detrimental. The stainless steel screw-on case back, signed Avia, has some scratching where a tool has slipped in the past. The case back states that the watch is water resistant but, as with any vintage watch, it should be kept away from water and moisture.
The lens is in lovely condition.
The signed dial is in its original finish with original hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and roulette date. The date is an early form of quickset where the hands are moved repeatedly backwards and forwards between 12.40am and 10.30pm until the desired date is reached.
A new leather strap has been fitted.
The watch comes 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.

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.

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.
