Description

Gents 1950s Rodana wrist watch.

The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the name Rodana, a brand name registered by the Swiss company Rodana SA in 1941.

The watch is a good size at 35mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the handsomely shaped lugs. The case is chrome plated while the case back is stainless steel. There is some rubbing on the fronts of the lugs but overall the condition is good for a 1950s piece.

The lens is in lovely condition.

The dial is in its original finish. It is very faintly signed with the Rodana name. There is freckling across the dial. Original blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers.

A later leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Declaration

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.

FAQs

Wristwatches from the 1950s typically feature clean dials, Arabic or baton numerals, sub-seconds dials, and modest case diameters reflecting post-war design sensibilities.

Watch cases from this period were commonly crafted from stainless steel, chrome-plated base metals, or solid gold, paired with genuine leather straps and acrylic crystals.

Authentication involves inspecting the mechanical movement for Swiss maker marks, examining the dial typography, and verifying the case hallmarks and material integrity.

A vintage timepiece adds classic refinement to contemporary attire, pairing well with tailored suits or casual knitwear for an understated accessory focal point.

Preservation requires regular mechanical servicing by a professional horologist, avoiding moisture exposure, and storing the watch in a climate-controlled environment away from direct sunlight.
