Solid 18ct White Gold and Diamond Ladies Cocktail Watch by Vertex C1968

1940 - 1960
Description

This is a very fine and beautiful example of a ladies wristwatch made by the world renowned premier Swiss maker Vertex.

It has a solid 18ct white gold case surrounded by a row of diamonds and then more diamonds to the shoulders. The solid 9ct white gold integral twin herringbone design bracelet compliments the diamonds beautifully, it is very fluid and simply glides around the wrist and has an integrated double safety clasp.

As you would expect from Vertex the diamonds are bright, crisp and evenly matched.

It is quite stunning with a white dial. A new glass has been fitted and the watch and bracelet professionally cleaned and polished so it is absolutely pristine.

The 17 jewel movement is an absolute gem, sparkling clean and in like new condition, this is a movement from the golden age of Swiss watchmaking.

As you would expect from Vertex the watch is fully marked on the dial and movement.

Vertex are famous for their beautiful diamond watches and this watch certainly has that understated elegance which resonates class.

The watch head measures 18mm in diameter not including the crown.

The watch case and the bracelet are fully hallmarked and date the watch to 1968.

It fits a maximum wrist size of 6 inches but this can easily be reduced by any competent jeweller should this be required.

The watch has just been fully overhauled, restored and serviced and is guaranteed to be a genuine Vertex in all respects.

Like all of our watches it comes with a 12 month warranty

A watch for those special moments in life.

We offer a highly personalised and bespoke service.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A cocktail watch is a decorative womens timepiece designed primarily for formal evening wear, featuring precious metals, gem-set bezels, and ornate bracelets.

These timepieces are commonly constructed from precious metals such as 18ct white gold or platinum, adorned with diamonds and housing precise mechanical Swiss movements.

Authentic pieces display official hallmarks indicating metal purity, manufacturer hallmarks on the dial and movement, and original stone settings consistent with period craftsmanship.

A gem-set cocktail watch can serve as an elegant statement accessory alongside formal evening wear or tailored contemporary clothing.

Keep the watch dry, store it in a soft lined case away from moisture, and have the mechanical movement serviced periodically by a professional horologist.
