Gents 1930s Art Deco Wrist Watch

1920 - 1940
Sold 16 July 2025 · The Vintage Wrist Watch Company
This “Gents 1930s Art Deco Wrist Watch” found a buyer.

It was listed by The Vintage Wrist Watch Company. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

Gents 1930s Art Deco wrist watch.

The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel hand-winding, probably by Adolph Schild, which is working nicely.

The watch measures 25.5mm wide excluding the winding crown, and 31mm high excluding the fixed wire lugs. The case is rose rolled gold. It has some unevenness to the sides but otherwise is in good condition.

The convex lens has the odd mark but is very acceptable (white reflection showing in the photos).

The dial is in its original finish with a red 12, blued steel hands (one is a period replacement), and inner minute markers. There is some age related marking to the dial but it is fairly light.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Date of Manufacture

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this Art Deco Wristwatch to the 1930s.

Dealers Notes

ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (because of GPSR legislation, we no longer post items less than 100 years old to Europe, including Northern Ireland).

Please contact us regarding international shipping.

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 up to £300 can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the 'Purchase Antique' button on each listing page. Alternatively, there is a Paypal payment link if you scroll down the page and we also accept bank transfers.

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.

Art Deco wristwatches from the 1920s and 1930s are characterised by geometric cases, clean lines, stylised numerals, and an emphasis on symmetry and modern industrial aesthetics.

Watch cases from this era were frequently crafted from gold, gold-plated metals, chromium, and stainless steel, paired with leather straps and glass or crystal watch faces.

Authentic pieces typically feature mechanical hand-wound movements, hallmarks inside the case back, aged dial patina, and period-specific typography and sub-second dials.

A vintage timepiece adds a touch of classic sophistication to formal tailoring or smart-casual attire, serving as a subtle statement accessory.

Keep mechanical watches away from water and magnetic fields, store them in a dry environment, and have them professionally serviced every few years to maintain working order.
