West End Watch Company watch, Indian Civil Service
West End Watch Company wrist watch, Indian Civil Service.
The watch has a hand-winding movement, possibly by Lavina for West End, which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the West End W logo. The movement is protected by an inner cover which has the markings for the Indian Civil Service.
The watch measures 29mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs so it is a mid-sized piece. The case is Everbright, an early form of stainless steel used by West End since the 1930s. The case is in good condition, just a scratches to the back. The back of the watch has the West End logo.
The lens is in lovely condition.
The dial is signed West End Watch Co, Sowar, Prima. The name Sowar was registered by the West End Watch Co for watches destined for India and the Far East. The name Prima was added for the shockproof and waterproof models... although, as with any vintage watch, it should be kept away from water. The dial is in its original finish with original hands.
A new black leather strap has been fitted.
The watch comes 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.
