Ebana 20 Rubis Super Shock Resist Art-deco Men's Vintage Wristwatch

1940 - 1960
Description

A vintage Ebana 20 Rubis Super Shock Resist Antimagnetic Wristwatch. This mechanical wristwatch incorporates 20 jewels, and its dial prominently displays "Super Shock Resist" and "Antimagnetic" properties, which are features commonly found in vintage mechanical watches engineered to enhance durability and accuracy.

The watch is identified by the "Ebana" brand name, and the "20 Rubis" designation refers to the 20 synthetic jewels strategically placed as bearings within the watch's mechanical movement, serving to minimize friction and wear. The "Super Shock Resist" feature denotes a shock-absorbing mechanism designed to safeguard the delicate balance staff from potential damage caused by impacts. Concurrently, "Antimagnetic" signifies the watch's resistance to magnetic fields, which are known to adversely affect the precision of timekeeping. Given the "Rubis" indication, the watch operates on a mechanical movement, with a manual-winding, consistent with watches produced in the mid-20th century.

Declaration

Bushells Antiques has dated this Art Deco Gold Wristwatch to the 1950s.

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.

Art Deco wristwatches typically feature geometric case profiles, such as square, rectangular, or cushion shapes, alongside stylized numeric typographies and angular decorative lugs. Originating between the 1920s and 1940s, these timepieces reflected modern industrial design trends of the era.

Mid-century wristwatches were commonly crafted with brass or steel cases finished in gold plate or chrome, paired with acrylic crystals and stainless steel case backs. Movements utilised synthetic ruby jewels to reduce friction on critical pivot points.

Authenticity is verified by dial inscriptions detailing jewel counts or shock-resistance features, correct movement hallmarks beneath the balance wheel, and period-appropriate case construction techniques such as stepped lugs and snap-off or screw-down backs.

When not worn, vintage wristwatches are frequently incorporated into bedroom or dressing room styling, arranged on a brass watch stand, leather valet tray, or glass cloche atop a chest of drawers.

Mechanical watches require periodic servicing every three to five years to clean and re-lubricate the movement. They should be kept away from strong magnetic fields, stored in a dry environment, and protected from direct contact with water.
